    Shaun Harris feature next issue of AMCN

    Just to give anyone who's interested a chance to order one in from the newsagent (if you can).

    Shaun will be featured in the next issue of AMCN, which comes out in Australia next Wednesday. I'm not sure how long it takes to get here.

    I'm expecting a four to six page spread, with lotsa pretty pics.

    I know Pussy on KB gets his on order from the local Bell Block newsagents, so some shops can get it in for you. But I've never seen it just sitting in the shops. I've found it pretty hard to source over here.
    Illuc ivi, illud feci.

    Buggrim, Buggrit.

    I don't get every issue, far from it. I haven't noticed any major changes though. If memory serves it has been printed on glossy paper since Glen started it.

    BR aims at a different readership ("born again" and Harley riders) to KB and there is probably room for both, even in our tiny market.

    what newsagent? last time i saw a newsagent was when i lived in Australia. It's a small shop usually within shopping centres and complexes they stock magazines, newspapers, stationary, bubblegum & cigarettes. the only places i know where magazines come from here are supermarkets, post offices, dairys & book stores. they have newsagents here?

    I get both. KR is good for a broad readership, and BRM does some great owner modifyed write ups, and the print quality is excellent.
    I like both, long live both.

    Can you perhaps tell me why it is bullshit that I think BRM is a good mag, and KR is not as good? I think you can do better than a one word answer like that Dave. I might add, that whilst browsing through the mag today sitting around the table with other NZ motorcyclists, and consumers of magazine that my opinion above was unanimous.
    I agree 100%

    kiwirider maybe a mag for all new zealand riders...but they miss the target by a flying mile...they have practically no interest in local club racing...they like to put old motogp and WSBk new in instead...how much effort would be involved in finding out the results of the club rounds at least?? the ed is taking the mag in the wrong direction IMHO...not as in its not flashy and sportsbike like...not at all...its just that its boring! and not as good a read as it used to be [except your tests of course big dave ]

    cheers Poos ! be nice if we had more local stuff . Instead we get reports from Cathcart that have been published in many mags before..
    I go for AMCN or some of the pom ones which give me what I'm after. G.

    If it weren't for flashbacks...I'd have no memory at all..
