_This is not to talk about sex, or racism mag_ i am looking for some new mags What magazines do you subscribe to? And how do you rate the content: i.e. step by step how too’s advertisement vendors number of pages price I have: Dirt rider: (off road motorcycling) great over all, product testing A+, needs less of the same ad’s Racer: (all types of racing) A+ on articles, but that is all it has Handyman: (home improvement) A+ on articles, but needs more product reviews GrassRootsMotorspots: (all types of racing) They ended my subscription a year early! Was great until then… will go back when I am done being mad at them! ---
