August 1, 200620 yr The Hawkstone Programme backed ,literally, with issue 8 of Trialsworld magazine, made me realise what a great trials publication this country and sport is missing. I wonder or should I say hope that, somehow, the magazine can be resurected. Great format and well written articles. Anyone who wasn't at Hawkstone or didn't get a copy or missing out on interviews with Doug, Jim, Raga, Bou, Laia, Dibs. Wiggy and details on all the factory spec bikes to name but a few of the features. I also think Andy is pictured on the cover.
August 1, 200620 yr your right mate it was a great magazine. How would it be possible to get it started again
August 8, 200620 yr As a subscriber to Trialsworld last year I got the letter when they packed up and it clearly stated that it wasn't viable to produce cos of the lack of sales. To restart they would need clear-cut proof that they could get X amount of copies sold. Somehow I doubt this'll happen I thought the magazine was brilliant value for money with 12 issues of Trialsworld costing
August 8, 200620 yr At the end of the publication run it was said that the ammount sold could not justify the mag (dont know about your area but i couldnt get a copy for love nor money) What about re introducing the mag as subscription only then the they would only print the copies required. What about a poll to see who would subscribe. Someone in the know may be reading this and take a hint.
August 9, 200620 yr A great shame but the subscription level was not enough to cover the costs. The only way it could be resurected would be for someone to subsidise it, won't happen. Disappointing I know.
