Anyone know of a good magazine to subscribe to with articles and photos about motorcycle touring, scenic rides, long distance endurance riding, etc..

I'm amazed by the story of john ryan and his coast to coast record setting ride. I'd love to have stories and photos of similar rides delivered to my doorstep every month. Would be a good way to remind me that I'm a panzy and need to step up to the iron butt level : p

I already subscribe to motorcyclist and sport rider.

We have a very cool mag over here called Trailzone. Zack and Babired have some issues coming their way soon. It's more trailbike and adventure riding, but some very cool articles none the less. Amazing scenery shot mostly in Oz and NZ, but overseas trips are becoming more common.

You might try Road Runner. it's geared towards touring; though not really into Iron Butt type rides. It does offer a lot of good information if you're into traveling. Rider magazine is also more touring oriented than either of the two mags you subscribe to.
Most magazines have a "try one issue free" type of offer. send them an e-mail asking, and they'll probably send you an issue and you can decide for yourself if you like it.

Thanks Crusty.

Road Runner looks perfect so I got a subscription.

Will check out the free copy of Rider as well and see what it's all about..

+1 for Road Runner. It's my favorite touring mag by far. Rider is nice for the product reviews.

"Rider" is not a bad magazine with some emphasis on sport touring.


They've been pretty kind to the Buells even when Buell-bashing was de rigueur.
