The People Behind the Site

vespamerchant is written by a small team. Names, roles and what each person actually does are below — if a piece needs a correction, you know whose desk it lands on.

Grace Underhill

Managing editor · Since 2023

Started the Мотоциклы section in 2023 as a set of personal notes and kept going. Prefers pieces that say plainly what works, what does not, and where the limits are.

Responsible for corrections: if something here is wrong, this is whose inbox it lands in.

Clara Calloway

Contributing writer · Since 2023

Writes about Мотоциклы here since 2023, mostly by working through the questions readers send in. Tries the steps first and writes afterwards; where a question is genuinely unsettled, says so.
