I've been buying this magazine since 1985 and its one of the best on the market, but whats happened to it recently? I get my magazines put aside for me at a shop and since xmas AMCN is hardly available, owner doesnt know whats happened to it. Think I've had two issues this year, (it comes out fortnightly) anyone else had this problem? Maybe its selling out in Australia and not getting sent to NZ? Might have to subscibe and get it sent direct.

Subscribe mate, it's a probably one of the best mags in the world. Would be the best if they'd give me a job.

The other brilliant one is CycleWorld.

'Performance Bikes' is the only mag that I regularly, although I do read as many of the others that I can get my hands on.

Generally I prefer the Brit mags, but the NZ and Aussie ones are pretty good, and actually have stuff you can buy (well look at anyway).

Since the redesign there has been issues with the number being printed. Be aware that subscribing may not fix it, as AMCN subscribers in Oz seem to get the mag after it has been delivered to newsagents and magazine shops. There just haven't been enough to be able to deliver any to NZ. It's my favourite too, and Pat at Small's Books & Models is about ready to punch my face in if I turn up demanding my magazine again. He is hopeful there will be two (last fortnight's one, and the one due today) for me today, but I ain't holding my breath.

I also have put aside Performance Bikes, Fast bIkes and Superbikes along with AMCN. Oh, thanks too Jim2, I thought something like that must be happening. Hell, you'd be pretty pissed if you subscribed and still missed copies, huh?
