    Oh that's sad news Cheryl. Sorry to hear that the mag wasn't the success we all hoped it would be. Take care. Trudi.

    Cheryl, hold your head up high. You made a very fine magazine that many of us enjoyed reading. Good on you for giving it a go- wish it could have continued- but very well done anyway!

    I would like to give a sincere thank you to yourself and everyone who supported the magazine, I was very passionate about it and hoped it would be picked up better than what it was - I am aware that there will be a lot of disappointed people out there and for this I am sorry. This was not a decision I came to lightly, it was extremely difficult but felt that I had no choice.

    Again, a big thank you to everyone that supported the magazine. Ride hard and be safe out there.

    Oh, Bummer! I will miss buying my copy from the local Service Station. I enjoyed reading it at the first opportunity.

    Good on you for trying, Cheryl, and all the best in your future endeavours.

    Sorry to here that, I enjoyed all the issues. You did a great job
    I guess it is a small market & one that would be slow to build a following, most gals I know usually know off it through word off mouth.

    One thing I noticed is it is usually hard to find on the shelves unless you are looking for it you would miss it. The retailers did nothing to make it easy to be seen & was usually hidden behind the mens mags. Shame on them.

    I agree with all the other comments Cheryl. Really enjoyed being part of the mag, and seeing it pass thru all the hands that it has around here. Everyone who checked it out down here seemed pretty impressed by it.
    Things like this often take time to catch on and its a bummer that you aren't able to continue, but really enjoyed what you have done!
