Magazines....in bags
anybody else fed up with every damn motorbike magazine being sealed in a plastic bag? Or is it another one of my fast approaching forty so getting grumpy signs? No I don't have a problem with getting into the bags, just every time I buy even the old faithfull "bike" magazine I get it home, (or on the front seat of the car whilst trying to get out of Tescos car park!!!) and just feal ripped off by all the junk. Save the trees!! Or at least let us have a peak before committing to spend. 'Did n't renew my "bike" subscription this year, don't think I will bother again. Now missing Italian Bike magazine.

Old mate.

I know what ya saying tho, is annoying. Get Bike and Superbike on subscription anyway, as i buy them every month for toilet reading! Plus cheaper. But i have to say, i don't buy any of the others unless i can read the contents..... then again most of the others all about the same. Seems to me of late, all the bike mags are giving freebies to be top dog.

Mags in bags
Used to be able to read all the bike mags, while the wife was doing the monthly shop in Tescos. Then team up at the checkout. Now i have to suffer trolly rage.

Only one I'll buy without reading the contents is Motorcycle Racer. A very difficult magazine to find but beautifully photographed, very well informed and a damn good read - only 2 pages of adverts this month out of 100.

Get it on subscription Antonye, then you won't have to struggle to find it.
