I seem to have stumbled into an edition of Hello magazine. Could someone point me in the direction of Biker Banter please.

If I went off into Europe with a pretty girl on a motorbike, my wife would leave me too
Unless, of course, that was his wife ?
They appear regularly on each other's Twitter. So I guess they're now an item post divorce.
Boy's done well, she's a decent catch
Sadly she's also an idiot, her son has autism and she believes food and vaccines caused it and so has him on an incredibly restricted diet and thinks that his autism will be cured by alternative means.

Its a good lesson in social media and building a personal brand. People see a girl riding a sportsbike and start doing somersaults. Thousands of "Follows" errr...folllow and having thousands of follows in itself leads to opportunities from people looking for exposure that might not be afforded to better people, better riders or people who have accomplished more. Yet the followers themselves dont necassarily know or care much about the person who is the focus of their attention. Their attention itself is already commoditised and the subject of thier adoration (if simply clicking "follow" counts as adoration) is reaping the benefits.

Which is no judgement on her or circumstances, I dont know her. But if she proved to be more popluar than say Jenny Tinmouth, who is also a girl who rides sportsbikes only she is quite good, you have to question the motivations for JoJo's followers, dont you?


ETA: Just checked Instragram. JoannaFBenz 52,000 followers. Jenny TInmouth, 2651. Make of that what you will.

Ever since BVG and herself became an item her social media account has a) jumped in followers b) increased in the quality of "pictures" or "posts", i dont blame her for doing what she is doing, it's a niche market under social media (pretty-ish girl rides bike), it's just another way to earn a living rather than sitting behind a desk - and she should be commended for that. At least there is no "anti-oxident tea adverts".. yet.

The difference between Jenny and Jo is that one prefers to display her cleavage and looks more often thusly selling a dream, whereas the other appears to prefer to race and let her riding do the work or talking.

Opinions are my own. Not the work of Hello or OK magazine.

She is a girl who is currently using her social media following to rig the results of a competition where first prize is a scooter. She is like Lauracraft, only I find Laura more vacuous.

I guess I cant really question the way they use social media for personal gain in spite of a lack of quantifiable acheivement, whilst actually following them on social media, can I? My hypocrisy knows no bounds...

An attractive young lady that a bunch of pathetic male saddoes seem to lust over.

Putting a foil hat on here. Don't they test for nagalase enzyme protein in cancer cases, the same stuff they put in vaccines and the same stuff found in high levels in autistic children? Restricted diet probably her only option.
