TWO and PB.

Have a trawl thru the rest and if interested in summat will buy.

Read first issue of RPM and would like to get issues 2 and 3 but no sign of them. Early Schiller stuff wasa good laugh.

i've probably got 2 and 3 Shaun, pm me your address and i'll send em down.

I subscribe to RIDE but I'm not going to rebew when this one runs out. Rose has had a personality bypass and it shows in the mag.

Superbike is a good laugh (assuming you are not offended by the swearing and naked women).

All the mags run the same articles (bike tests, tyre test etc) a few months apart. Each mag just puts it's own spin on the test.

Anyone remember Motorcycle Voyager (MV - dedicated to touring)? I subscribed to that but it went bust!

And why is a subscription to MCN so expensive?

Have to agree in the main, though PB always strikes me as a bit different. BIKE as well - mainly because it has enough pages to do all of the same tests as the others and some different stuff as well.

Anyone want a load of old Bike mags? Free but buyer collects etc. Cant bring myself to bin em. Emptied a load out the loft (still loads up there) Also loads of old Car mags, 100s of Top Gear, Car, Performance Car, Autocar, Autosport etc etc. Probably about 600 mags total.

The format of so many bike magazines seems so similar - road tests/product tests/out of date sports news etc.

I like the new format of RiDE and anything that Tim Thompson edits gets my vote (PB currently). BIKE just don't float my boat no more
