I think the writing is second rate also. Not putting down other bikes as a lot of us own 2 or more. I just don't think the magazine delivers from a riders standpoint.
I've had a subscription in the past and a couple years ago , I had another subscription, that has elapsed.
No the magazine isn't the same.
Not trying to defend Rider, but times are different too.
The last I knew, adventure bike sales were one of the fastest growing segments. I'm sure there is no coincidence that Rider has geared towards a growing segment. Their financials would demand it. Especially in this digital day and age where anything "print media" is on the down turn.
