Used Bike Guide was a good mag and did that. I wrote a couple of articles on bikes I had at the time (an FJ1200 and a GPX600R) and was a regular reader. I can't remember if they paid but at least you got to see your story in print.
And then of course there was "Bandit Bob"..

Re: Free On Two Wheels magazine
I've never read T&G so can't comment much on it though I glanced a year or so ago and found it focusing on 125 geared bikes which seemed a bit odd for a Mag of such name.
I picked up the first O2W paper the other day whilst by daelim was in for a service. Only a twenty minute read and primary focused on geared bikes in the 125-400cc range. A few Chinese manufacturers ads, small review on a Kymco 50cc, open face helmets. Article about the CBT, road positioning. Ok read but nothing special in my opinion.

Re: Free On Two Wheels magazine
Most of the journos are now working for other mags so I wouldn't worry too much!
Re: Free On Two Wheels magazine
Who's worried? None of the current crop of bike mags are worth more than bog roll, so no surprises there.2wheelover51 wrote:Most of the journos are now working for other mags so I wouldn't worry too much!

The comment was aimed at Andyscooter after his comment: "Not looking good for them really is it?".
It was meant to be a light-hearted comment and in a humourous tone(hence the "smilie".
