    Yeah - I know - it's a bit sad that I haven't been in it for a few months - but there's a feature or two coming up.

    Yep, liked Twin Eagle (and even managed to do some writing in there). But MCM is still my fav bike mag:

    Some magazines are struggling with how to present content in the internet age. Motorcycle magazines are probably no exception to that.

    Some of us still struggle with glossy paper in that environment, and most tablet devices have edges that just aren't sharp enough.

KR (not that I buy it anymore) goes in the bin when Ive read it, BRM goes to the "library".
    I share your opinion.

    I love Big Dave dearly as a human being, as we all do, but I don't think his writing ability is on a par with his photography.

    The 'issue' (geddit) is there are very few advertisers in the local industry who embrace the online medium.

    The thing is I tend to go for quick amusement these days and I can't be bothered reading long stories so find KR gets that about right for me.

    Even here on KB if someone posts a long post I just skip it. I don't want to be reading long diatribes in my fun time. I can do enough of that at work.
    Cheers

    Mervyn Mervyn Mervyn. The *correct* KB answer is 'I buy it because Big Dave can apostrophise'.

    But can Big Dave pronounce "apostrophise" without a warm up?

    I only buy TBM.

    Would subscribe to more if they were on Zinio.

    Yuh - I can run off at the mouth on demand. Often without demand.
