Default MCN Facts

I have been buying MCN over the past weeks mainly for the adverts - sad I know - but i have been checking out what offers are about from the dealers.

Anyways on the front page this week it reads: "Exposed: Sly New Tricks of Bike Thieves.... New video evidence of bike thieves in action exposes the latest sly tactics they use to avoid arrest" This is accompanied by frame by frame video shots of the crooks. The funny bit is the dates on the bottom of the video frames read 14.6.2001 and 27.1.2000 Thanks MCN for the heads up!

More Crap than News lives up to its reputation again.

Now summers heading our way, how long til the:

Biking to be Banned, You Will Lose Your Bike if you Speed [which is technically true to be fair] etc scaremongering headlines resurface?

Tbh I only buy it now when I need the classifieds section. Otherwise I wont waste my money.
