What motorcycle magazines are worth subscribing to?

I like magazines for passing the time in the reading room (read bathroom). Any recommendations on good motorcycle magazines?

Motorcycle Consumer News

They have some articles that are online you can sample. Proficient Motorcycling author writes a column there.

Lots of articles on line here as well so you can test the waters.

I should mention that I'm not a subscriber to any motorcycle magazines. Primarily because I would not have time to read them.

If you find a good one let me know i kinda liked easyrider too but it seems the writers and editor have problems with people that don't ride harleys or at least that is my take on them

I find that most sport or hobby magazines spend so much time trying to convince you that you need to buy new products in order to enjoy said sport that they are really pretty worthless.

It took me a while to catch on to the fact that a magazines primary purpose is to sell products for their advertisers. There are a few exceptions to this but they are rare. Reviews in magazines are advertising in another form.

Some times the ads are what I want.

El Diablo, In Texas we have a magazine called "Riding Texas". (I think I remember the name right). It's main focus is on different "rides" to take....everything you need to know for that trip.

Maybe Tennessee has one like that??? So far I haven't found one here in Arkansas like that but still new here so hoping.
