JUSTIN W. COFFEY
Justin is a freelance photojournalist and co-creator of WESTx1000, a multimedia company focused on motorcycles, motorsport, and adventure travel. For more than a decade, he has crisscrossed the globe documenting high-speed pursuits and remote landscapes—often with a camera in one hand and a half-eaten Oreo in the other. His work captures the grit, beauty, and absurdity of life on the road. When not chasing the next story, Justin splits his time between Baja California and the American Southwest, where he’s usually found riding his dual-sport motorcycle down a deserted beach or remote dirt trail in search of tacos and trouble.

LINDI DELPORT
BRIAN MAKSE
Lindi is a South African-born singer, award-winning songwriter, voiceover artist, and seasoned magazine contributor with over two decades of experience. Her work spans music, media, and the written word, reflecting a deep passion for storytelling in all its forms. A true global soul, Lindi draws inspiration from international cuisine, diverse cultures, and her love of travel—bringing a rich perspective to everything she creates. She collaborates closely with her artistic family. Her husband, Tovi Delport, is a musician and photographer who contributes to most of her projects, and their nine-year-old daughter Karmin can occasionally be seen reviewing cars online, sharing her parents’ love for the camera and luxury cars.
Brian Makse has spent the better part of the last three decades making cars go fast around racing circuits—and teaching others how to do the same. When not sampling cigars or setting questionable speed records on the Autobahn, he can be found explaining to his YouTube subscribers why his latest automotive dynamics theories make perfect sense. His path from BMX racer to motorsports champion to cigar aficionado isn't what anyone would call normal—but then again, normal people don’t typically win dozens of wheel-to-wheel races and then have the audacity to write about it. When he was born, Brian’s mother drove a small-block Chevelle and his father a vintage Rolls-Royce, which explains both his need for speed and his taste for quality. He writes about cigars like he drives: occasionally brilliant, frequently wrong, and always entertaining.
