MCN - do they realise just how sh*t everyone knows it is?
The biggest thing that hacks me off are the 'artists impressions' and the 'spy shots, this weeks spy shot has a comparison next to it (can't rememeber what bike it is) and the spy shot is blocky and could be any bike! how the f*ck can that be a comparison? They constantly contradict themselves by printing something then either dismissing they ever did or reverse on what they said a few issues back.
Oh yeah and the speeding camera scandals and the bike 'tagging' & 'limiters' farce stories, just a excuse to fill two pages of utter rubbish. I've seriously thought about starting up a site to point this out evertime they talk rubbish and quote what they said previously to show up how p#ss poor their 'journalism' is. Rant over! |

I tend to read MCN back to front as I find IMHO that the race pages at the back are pretty much well thought out, written and the information and race stuff is of a pretty high standard, if only the rest of the paper was like that... |
Re: MCN - do they realise just how sh*t everyone knows it is?
Yep I like the race pages too.
I'm so broke at the mo I can't afford the MCN... Today at lunch I went into WH Smiffs and read the latest ish of BiKE... I felt like a student again... |

Actually I didn't buy MCN today for the first week in about 6 months. Finally had enough of all the scare stories that are purely there for senationalism. Also they have a section where they concentrate on a certain product range each week such as leathers over £400 etc.. BUT, they don't actually review anything. They simply list all the products available with little pictures! I can see whats available myself, what I want is a review of someone who has used it, pros , cons etc..
Decided i'll save the £1.80 a week and buy RIDE magazine every month. Even though that is owned by MCN or t'other way round.. |

I used to be an avid reader of MCN, but then got cheesed off with the "Buy the new version because it's .02mph faster and handles better" attitude. I havent bought a copy now for years it's just drivvel.
