Title: "That Chopper Spirit" E-zine.
Post by: Manky Monkey on December 12, 2006, 10:56:48 AM
Just picked this up from Yodie's bikerlifestyle.co.uk forum.
When Desperate first talked of launching his own title it was going to be a bike magazine on a CD ROM. That idea eventually got dropped in favour of a traditional paper mag, but it seems Rod Lawless has gone ahead & done it on his own.
More info here:

Looks interesting. Not sure what will stop one person buying it & 100 copying it -honesty maybe, but I wish him the best of luck. Nice to see some fresh blood in the marketplace.
I keep peering at that video clip on the "Products" page. Is that LongBoarder on his Subaru trike?

i totally agree with you! i had a similar conversation with andy. about tech info on here! im happy to help anybody out. but i do find it very offensive when i find all my hard work on another website! and somebody claiming it as their own ideas. i,ve had this done to me twice now. so thats why im a little reluctant to post too much!! :-X ;)

I have a mate who lives in LA, he is a very good musician and clever with these puter thingy's, currently working on a programme that will shaft the illegal down loaders, BIG time ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D he relies on his royalties to pay the mortgage, so why should some talentless ********* benefit from his hard work...
