I don't know, I kind of like Vital being the national enquirer of the MX world. Evil
This stuff looks like it would be a legit MX sight.

Just out of curiosity, how many current employees have been hired that were members of the forum prior to their employment with Vital?

• Significant online experience

Not sure how I should feel about actually possessing this requirement. Unsure

I would take this part time until I find a teaching job. Are you looking for someone short term? I think I'm perfect....

The ideal candidate possesses the following:
• Passion for the sport of motocross and its products (I buy a lot of parts and clothes)
• College degree in relevant subject (pure math degree? Single subject teaching credential? )
• Excellent writing skills (Kind day to you, sir. )
• Photography and video skills are a plus (I have a smart phone, does both. But, yes)
• Significant online experience (forums since 2004)
• Strong organizational skills (see math major)
• Resourceful and able to solve problems independently (mcgiever)

I also ride mountain bikes. I did 6.5 miles today with my girl friend.

I'm your huckleberry. I'm just down the road and I can ride my 2014 Ducati multi strada into work every day. No I don't have that bike yet but if I get this gig I'll buy one. I can cuss fluently in 3 languages.

I'll take the job. I'm a college dropout but I currently make 240k. If you match it I'm in. If you wanna see my fine work look at my post on this site (notice I spelled that correctly). You can only see half of them though. You deleted the other half of themWoohoo
