Bike Mags gone by…

Good buddy Buzz Kanter, publisher of American Iron magazine, posted an interesting list on Facebook yesterday.  It’s the motorcycle magazines that have folded their tents since 1998.   I asked Buzz if I could post it here and Buzz said it was okay:

Buzz’s magazine, American Iron, is still going strong and it is still published every 4 weeks (I can’t imagine publishing to that kind of schedule, but Buzz, Steve Lita, and the AIM crew somehow make it happen).  The focus at AIM is on U.S. motorcycles, great writing, and great photography, and it all works.  I don’t own a Harley or an Indian and I still enjoy reading American Iron.  If you want to subscribe to AIM (and I think you should), you can do so here.

Buzz is an interesting guy.  Like a lot of riders, he’s a shooter, too, and I enjoy seeing his shooting-related posts on Facebook.  A lot of folks who are into motorcycles often have similar other interests, including shooting, cameras and photography, watches, bicycles, travel, and more.  It’s what drives the kind of things we talk about here on ExhaustNotes.

So what’s coming up?   Good stuff, my friends.  Arjiu is headed to Bonneville in the near future.  I’m doing the 2019 Three Flags Classic on a CSC RX4.   Good buddy J and I just got back from a deer hunt scouting expedition (whoa, the mosquitoes sure got us good).  And more.  There’s always more, so stay tuned!
