Touring Magazine?

[spyderhead]

Just subscribed to Roadrunner Magazine (the discount was great!). Does anyone know of any other motorcycle magazine that caters to touring? Off and on over the years, I have subscribed to various motorcycle mags, but I just no longer have any interest in "this month's crotch rocket showdown" type of articles. Thanks.

I subscribed to Road Runner a couple of weeks ago. I don't know of any other mags that deal with actual riding. I subscribe to Motorcycle Consumer News, but any more they're mostly about bikes I don't care about. Right now I'm sticking around for the health and safety articles, and the fact that I've subscribed to them almost forever.

 

BTW, Road Runner'll be publishing an article about riding US 40 before long. My wife works as breakfast lady at a Holiday Inn Express and two of the Road Runner guys stayed there. They chatted, which is how I learned about the US 40 thing. He sent me his card. I sent him info about some roads in southern Indiana. Maybe IN 135 will get a writeup someday. I'm sure the 58 Cafe would like to see themselves in print.

There is a mag out there called Baggers. I just happened to see it on the shelf at a book store.

I like RoadRunner also as the articles are great and the photography is fantastic. Another magazine similar to that is Motorcycle ESCAPE Magazine. You can look it up by that name. It is also very interesting to read and talks about a lot of different places to ride.

It is dedicated to V-twins with bags.

 

there is also American Baggers for Harleys with bags.

I like the "Favorite Rides" and the "Stayin' Safe" section of Rider. But they don't cater specifically to touring. They do have occassional ride tests (not RSV of course). I am also looking for something that would be more touring-centric. But, overall, I like rider.

Motorcycle Escape apparantly went belly up. Its web address now redirects to Motorcyclist Online.

Thanks Bummer. That is a shame as it was a nice magazine.

While it is not exclusively a touring magazine, Ride Texas Magazine always has several touring stories. It is a good mag - hard to beat - is not limited to Texas.

You can call me Al.

 

 

Ok I'll call you Al... Al you're wrong about Baggers they are not restricted to V-Twins and they even had a RSV rider and his lovely bride on a TD pictured in their Bike Week coverage... I forget if they were VRs or Venturers. You're right about American Bagger tho... I saw a RSV owner wrote them a letter asking about inclusion and they blew him off.

 

The thing about Roadrunner is it's all touring with sport tourers, sportbikes, and scooters... They very rarely have tourers or cruisers doing the touring or cruising... I think they should change the name it's false avertising
