Recommendation - Road Racing/Track Magazine

**1000RR** · 11-09-2010, 08:20 PM

Looking for a magazine subscription in the subject area of Track Days, Road Racing (motoGP, superbike), and the similar. I'm interested in a magazine that might go into riding tips for the track and rider improvement.

Any recommendations?

Thanks in advance.

There is only one (in my opinion).

RoadracingWorld.com // Roadracing World Magazine // Motorcycle Roadracing Daily News

Was definitely considering that one. Does its monthly publication include track tips and the similar? I have gotten their "Trackday" April version that they issue as a special issue before... Just wondering about their monthly publication if it also has some articles on tips, etc.

Thanks!

I wouldn't say they have monthly "tips" as far as track riding is concerned but, it's by far the most track oriented magazine I've come across. Motorcycle Racer is a European mag that is also racing focused, but it's more focused on moto gp, wsbk, bsb, euro series, etc.

Roadracing World puts out a track day special every year which is the April issue you have/mentioned.

Road Racing World is an excellent monthly mag...If you subscribe now or by year end, they will send you next years track day edition....basically a list of scheduled track days all across the US, as well as tips on doing track days and prep...each issue or the majority usually has riding skill's tips and as well as most recent AMA/MotoGP and other race hi-lites...as well as newly realeased bikes write ups...

Very well worth the subscription...If you do decide to subscribe, go to Amazon.com and search Road Racing World, and you'll save a good chunk of change...The regular subscription price is about $35-$40 a year, of you go through Amazon, you'll save about $15...just fyi...

+1 on Roadracing World. Excellent magazine, providing in depth news, editorials, special one-of-a-kind tests, gear and tire comparisons, etc. I love it, and check their website daily.

Also, I really like the british magazines, they tend to ride and write like real riders. Their articles have so much more character and more pointed, not just specs and manufacturer regurgitation like our magazines tend to be. I like Performance Bike, Visor Down (formerly Two Wheels Only, TWO), and BIKE magazine. It is hard to find them in stores some places though, just my two sense.
