Editorial Photography for Motorcyclist Magazine | Montana Distillery Breaks Land Speed Record with Photographer Brian Powers
Editorial Photography for Motorcyclist Magazine | Ryan Montgomery used ethanol from his distillery to claim a land speed record in Utah’s Salt Flats
This documentary styled editorial shoot was commissioned by Motorcyclist Magazine to document a story few distilleries, or motorcycle builders, could ever claim.
Ryan Montgomery of Montgomery Distillery broke a motorcycle land speed record at Utah’s Salt Flats using ethanol distilled from beer produced at his Missoula based distillery. The fuel was created in house, used to power a his motorcycle in an official speed attempt.
The assignment focused on capturing the distillery environment, the production process, and the connection between craft distilling and high performance engineering. The imagery supported a published magazine spread centered on the headline concept: how one man broke a land speed record on a motorcycle fueled by beer.
