cota kid Posted August 1, 2006 Report Share Posted August 1, 2006 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jack_h Posted August 1, 2006 Report Share Posted August 1, 2006 your right mate it was a great magazine. How would it be possible to get it started again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fordson major Posted August 8, 2006 Report Share Posted August 8, 2006 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scrappington Posted August 8, 2006 Report Share Posted August 8, 2006 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nigel dabster Posted August 9, 2006 Report Share Posted August 9, 2006 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
