Happy New Year! We hope 2020 brings you joy, laughter, health, warm trackdays in foreign lands, new motorbikes and oodles of cash frequently handed to you in binbags; perhaps even welcoming Charlotte McKinney as your lover.
Anyway, regulars may have spotted we’ve been a bit slack when it comes to the website, which is true. We had plans in place to relaunch 44teeth.com with a swanky new appearance and features but, the truth is, it’s all gone a bit crazy and the growth of 44T continues to surprise us, and there’s simply not enough time in the day to juggle everything that goes into this. When I say everything, I mean blood, sweat and jizz tears.
We’ve just celebrated our 5th birthday, which is crazy. When we started this ‘thing’ all those years ago, I envisaged a fine blend of website stories/features and video, whereas Chris had visions of 44T being solely video. As usual, the quiffed pissant was right, even after ‘experts’ told us 85% of the internet would be video by 2020. That’s not to say we’ll ignore the website; far from it, as 44teeth.com will always be the hub, the epicentre. The point is, there’s not enough time in the day – or money in the pot yet – to do everything, so we have to prioritise. That priority is video. However, please sit there reading this, nursing a chubby and be prepared for a fresh site soon.
In case you hadn’t noticed, we don’t do traditional advertising; 44Teeth relies on loyal sponsors, a tawdry amount of Google revenue and, of course, crowdfunding from you sexy people including merch and memberships. Chris still has a day job, which is why I do the day-to-day shit. It’s going to take a fair amount of cajoling for Chris to step away from his colours and shapes vocation, as bikes simply won’t fund his playboy lifestyle, but we’ll carry on regardless until someone buys us for millions of pounds.
We knew it would be good, but not this good. So, thank you for every click, like, comment, share and purchase. Here’s to another decade of shenanigans.
