    Bike Magazine

    Does anyone here know where I can get a subscription to UK's Bike magazine that won't cost me 60 GBP!? You don't even get the free tool set if your in the USA that they are offering right now.

    I love Bike, and want it at home as opposed to buying it occasionally at Barnes & Noble.

    Thanks!

    Re: Bike Magazine

    You actually pay for it? I just sit at barnes and noble and read all of the expensive Motorcycle magazines. I read about $50 worth of mags in one go. It is called checking the contents prior to buying. At the end I just decide that I've already read the content.

    I was looking as well, but couldn't find a good deal on the subscription. So, I do the same - I got to Border's and read it there unless I find a magazine that has stuff I like which then I buy. So, I end up buying about 4-5 per year.

    I subscribed through Amazon. This site seems to be cheaper. $69 for 12 months.

    I get a lot of the UK mags sent over by relatives but postage is expensive, 60 pounds is about $90 which is not too bad if you think about it, B&N charge $9.99 so you are saving $30

    I'd rather read it in the comfort of my home then treat a bookstore like a Library.

    Befriend the old ladies at B&N - or go dumpster diving for mags.

    That's quite alright. I do have a couple of subscriptions myself, I just happen to believe that Bike magazine is way too expensive.

    Just find someone that gets them and ask them to give them to you after they read them.

    It is expensive, but you gotta pay those great writers. The postage doesn't help either.
