As the grandson of a long-time Indian dealer (and 16 other brands ranging from AJS to Zundapp), Eric Trow has been a continually active motorcyclist since his first solo ride at the age of eight.
Trow, recipient of the 2013 AMA Outstanding Road Rider Award, currently owns and operates Stayin’ Safe, the nation’s premier on-road advanced rider training program. He is a respected moto-journalist, penning the popular Riding Well column each month for Rider magazine. Trow is also a popular keynote speaker and a founding member of the Greater Pittsburgh Motorcycle Safety Council.
In addition to his work in motorcycling, Trow is an award-winning creative talent and marketing strategist, most recently working as vice president/strategy director for a top-100 U.S. advertising agency.
In his garage can be found a continually rotating assortment of current and vintage motorcycles from America, Europe, and Japan. Within his collection is a family heirloom: an unusual, all-original, ultra-low mileage Indian Chief that is one of the very last to roll off of the “Wigwam” assembly line.
