Shout out to @thepreviousowners for taking time off his own projects to help us out over the last few months. (We meant to get this appreciation post out sooner, but as you all know, things got crazy).

Be sure to check out his channel if you want to sprinkle some satire/laughs in with your motorcycle addiction.

P.S. thanks for all the love we've received over the last several days! We've enjoyed reading your comments/memories and are so grateful to all of you who have joined us on this journey.

It’s with a heavy heart that we announce the closure of Iron & Air.

Twelve years ago, we set out to create something we couldn’t find in the world — a fresh take on the culture of motorcycling. Born was our love letter to “the motorcycle and the places it takes us” — a mantra that took us to the literal ends of the earth collecting stories of the human spirit — your stories — and cataloging them with ink and paper.

To us, Iron & Air has always been a celebration of the creative spirit. From custom motorcycles and cars, to artists and designers, to anyone that simply chose to color outside of the lines — not out of rebellion, but of a sheer, unbridled drive to make the world a more unique place for the rest of us to experience. Those were our people. You were our people.

Iron & Air was an outlet, not an audience. It was a place for us to share the things that inspired us and extend to you an open invite to the party. We encourage you to create your outlet and invite the world in. Take big swings. Put more into the world than you take from it. Create fearlessly. Love one another and celebrate the things that make us different. Regret is an unwanted passenger on anyone’s journey, and we’ve done our damnedest to avoid picking it up at every juncture on ours. We hope that we’ve inspired some of you to live the same way.

We want to thank each and every one of you for your support over the past 12 years. Thank you to our loyal subscribers and anyone who ever chose to spend their hard-earned money with us. It never went unappreciated. To the advertisers that supported us all of these years, we are forever grateful. To all the friends that came from this…you’ve made it all worth it.

As for us, we hope to cross paths with many of you again soon. Please reach out to us with any opportunities or love you want to share. We welcome it all and will continue creating, building, and taking big swings. Wherever this next road takes us, we’ll see you out there.
