Default Superbike Magazine.......FREE!?!?!

Got home form work last night to see a copy of Superbike Magazine on the table.

"Ooooh who's bought me this mag?" i asked.


"It came through the post today" my mum replied.



Turns out i got a copy sent to give it a try, love that marketing, keep sending more i'm still unsure


Anyone else get one through the post????? ( or i am super special! )

Yeah no idea why I got it, the only motorbike orientated company/organisatin to have my house address is the ACU, they must either

A) be selling our details, didnt see a box to tick to say I didnt want my details shared

or

B) have been contacted by superbike magazine, in which case they probably shouldnt be giving out peoples details unless as per above

Unless you have no affiliation with the ACU in which case I have no idea who sent it us.

The article on the ACU Suzuki trophy cup was bloody interesting though.

I would be tempted to do that for £12000

Unfortunately it is here that they are getting your addresses from, not all of the sites are secure and some insurance companies have been known in the past to sell addresses.

I used to get sent some crap called Maxim every month sent free by Dennis publishing. Never wanted it, never asked for it, even tried to cancel it by calling them. I reckon its a ploy to fudge the circulation figures, thus allowing them to court advertisers.
