Re: Free On Two Wheels magazine
Well bugger me just opened up the new issue and your right , I'm a subscriber & moderator on the t&g forum and nothing's been mentioned on theresmeghead wrote:I'm pretty certain I read it was closing down. It says that on page 4. It says if you're a subscriber then you'll get a cheque for the copies you've paid for and won't get. The new mag On Two Wheels is going to replace it but that's a freebie and I guess it won't be posted out!DTO wrote:Just to make it clear twist & go magazine is NOT ending , Just the free copy of otw paper is not included , This can be picked up for free at most bike shops .

If I'm honest I missed it too, I re-looked after reading this thread on here!DTO wrote:Well bugger me just opened up the new issue and your right , I'm a subscriber & moderator on the t&g forum and nothing's been mentioned on theresmeghead wrote:I'm pretty certain I read it was closing down.

Re: Free On Two Wheels magazine
Smeghead's right. The announcement on page 4 of the current magazine is very clear that the next issue will be the last.
I also agree with earlier commentators, that the inclusion of articles on geared bikes is at variance with the title of the magazine. I have latterly found myself skipping over half the content for that reason.

Actually bought the May/June edition of T&G today!!!! Lots of potentially interesting stories - New Tmax, X-ADV, Peugeot Metropolis 400 tests, etc etc, but they don't seem to say very much. Not sure it was worth £4.10!

Re: Free On Two Wheels magazine
I subscribe for some reason, I use it as bog reading. The latest issue is by far the best for ages and it's still very lightweight. There is very little depth to the reviews, it's as if they are written for simpletons to read!MrGrumpy wrote:Actually bought the May/June edition of T&G today!!!!

It's the writer's that are probably the simpletons. More than once i asked on Facebook if they used school kids to post for them.smeghead wrote:I subscribe for some reason, I use it as bog reading.
