By 2004, RoadRUNNER was growing steadily. Our readership expanded, and we began selling the magazine in most major bookstores across the U.S. and Canada. We had built experience and momentum. We’d found our rhythm and were proud of what we accomplished. Maps were always the foundation of RoadRUNNER.

From a Basement Office to Industry Recognition

For several years, RoadRUNNER was run from a basement. It served its purpose until we brought on a sales director. Suddenly, there was a second phone ringing constantly and even less room to breathe. Sometimes, Mike Miller had to step out into the backyard just to take a call in

The Beginning of a New Journey

In 1999, we settled in Clemmons, NC, embracing the adventure of a new home in a new country. Bit by bit, we found our footing, building friendships and growing more comfortable with our surroundings. We loved the rolling countryside, the proximity to both the mountains and the ocean, and the

The Unexpected Turn

The memories of our journeys along Route 66 and the Pacific Coast Highway stayed vivid in mine and Christian’s minds (see column in Apr ‘25). Back in Austria, we returned to our daily routines, working and making ends meet, but the thrill of those adventures refused to fade. One

Our First American Adventure

My husband Christian and I grew up in Austria, a mountainous country of endless winding passes and deep valleys. The stunning landscapes were the backdrop to our childhoods, instilling in us a love for adventure. In the ‘90s, we discovered our passion for motorcycling, which allowed us to explore the

The Fork in the Road

September, 2005. I remember Christa’s email like it was yesterday: “We would like to use your submission ‘Las Vegas’ in one of our next issues.” I read it once, twice, a million times and I still couldn’t believe it. I wasn’t born a writer. I never did

My ‘Cold Open’ with RoadRUNNER

A Look Back—25 Years of RoadRUNNER

In the summer of 1999, my parents Christian and Christa, my brother Manuel, and I moved from Austria to North Carolina for a change in scenery and, perhaps, a quieter life. In addition to their photography business, my parents brought their motorcycles across the pond. My dad had his 1997
