I don't think anyone wants anything from magazines anymore.. Their era is over.
I don't know anyone who buys em. LOL!

You get better real world info online these days.


PS.. Portland is a great weekend away :)

I've found that Pat Callinans mag is the least staged, and they accept articles from everyday folks who send one in...

And yep, Portland is epic, I'm leading a trip there for our Club on the March long weekend... Can't wait!!

I used to subscribe but stopped reading because I had a camper and was not interested in reading reviews of campers that did not adequately the bad points. I also have older eyes, and found that many mags were written on glossy paper, often with non-white background. I needed greater contrast between the words and the background.

I only get the mags as i was given a voucher for magazine subscription and it was the only thing I was interested in. I occasionally buy them when I am on holidays away so I have something to read while having a relax. But I have have found that the various mags are the exact same story regurgitated with a few different pics to make it look different.

Motorcycle magz were bad for this... mate writes for Aust Dirt Bike Mag, and I see them at his place, and black words on dark photos just make it impossible for old pricks to read...

I also dislike having to go to page 8-10 to find the index, as the first 7-9 pages are ads...
