Wanted: Bike Rider Magazine No 5 , Stella Article

**Spinaway** · 19th February 2008, 13:47

Hi
I am wanting to buy a copy of Issue no 5 of the "Bike Rider" magazine.
If I cant find one to buy I am seeking to pay someone to borrow a copy so that I can scan the article that I want.

The actual article is one on the STELLA motor-cycle of approx 1901, and I believe it was about a replica made of this bike.

If anyone can help it would be appreciated.

Do they not do back issues?
Surely if its that important it would be worth the 8 bucks or so for a back issue...

I did ask Bike Rider Magazine company if I can buy a back issue, but they said that one was no longer available. When I queried further they offered to check with their designer if he still had the article on his disk ... but I heard no more after that. So I presumed that they indeed were not capable of helping. Next step was to put a message up here !! lets see what happens .........

Don't think my pile goes that far back, will have a look though.

Do you have a month and year for issue 5?

Highlander : .... No I dont know year and month of issue sorry . I hate to say it but I have never read a "Bike Rider" magazine before myself haha.
But my guess is that its about 2 years ago approx !!
My presumption was that it was Issue No 5 ...being the 5th issue since they stared printing that mag !!! I may be wrong there.
Good luck in the check thru your pile if you have time.
Thanks
