Yes Mick, it is I. We won't be going to WA as I am best man in a mates wedding that weekend-pity as we don't get to catch up with the rest of SA very often. We would have liked to come to some SA rounds this year but 3 out of 4 clashed with VIC, maybe next year.

I was going to contact you Mick in regards to putting together a proposal for SA to host the 07 Nats. Plenty of great venues in SA, Boulder Park would be awesome. Will talk to you soon and throw some ideas around.

Cheers

Daryl

Whats so wrong with it.

I thinks its awsome to have an Aussie mag out there.

The quality is definatly there, you can see that just by looking at it.

It's a $6 buck magazine, as opposed to $12 for yank stuff, and having been in the sport for a few years now, I see people or faces that I know in it which is a buzz.

Our sport aint that big yet, has someone at the Mag burned you off??

Or is it a case of sour grapes?

I just can't understand why anyone would be so bitter about the only quad mag we've got in this country.

I'm with Wild here; I think the Mag is pretty average......at best.

I am glag to have an Aussie mag and agree it's a quality item but lets not get too carried away. It's written by guys who dont seem to have a clue when it comes to ATV's. It's written by bike guys who have been in the magazine industry for ages and it also seems to have been started as an industry push because of an increase in ATV sales not because a bunch of quad guys have got together and want to start a mag.

[Roycroft]

lets set the record straight here guys.

Atv action is a growing magizine with Qtrly issue's.
linc
it worrys me that you are entirly wroung with your comments about the mag being written by bike guys. ATV action writers and testers purely ride atv's, being a regular contributer myself, i find it hard to believe that you can bag a magizine you don't even know about, wat about the hard work the editor, testers and writers put into this day in day out. just to keep people like you informed with the atv scene in aus.

did you know that atv action was started by a few quad guys, they got together on there on bat and decided to make this finally happen.
no i bet you didn't?
and did you know that out of the publications that the print company do, like

inside sport
motorcycle trader
atv action
to name just a few

atv action is one of the best layed out mags out there?

the support that atv action recieves by there advertisers, readers, writers and riders far outways your negitive comments.

if you want to comment about the mag, well do so but why don't you be supportive of our growing sport and don't critice the people that put there heart and sole into something.

cheers

All of my points are valid and rather than calling people names and shooting them down (LEN - "get a life" comment) and (OQ44 - "sour grapes)........maybe you should take the comments on board.

"if you want to comment about the mag, well do so but why don't you be supportive of our growing sport and don't critice the people that put there heart and sole into something"

Come on; read what you have just said.....I can only comment if I have something good to say? thats ridiculous.

I do purchase the mag and I try to make constructive comments rather than say........"get a life" or "sour grapes" or shooting down my "negative comments".

Take my comments for what they are; it seems that you have taken them as a personal attack. So I think the magazine could be improved.....it can; surely you dont think its perfect.

How can you improve the mag unless you get all opinions and feed back.

[jackass 450]

I take my hat off to the people who have taken the time and effort to start such a magazine in Australia.
I don't beleive it would have been an easy task to start something that is ATV only orientated. For example when I purchased my first Banshee back in 1999 a large Yamaha dealer in Brisbane didn't even know what one was. The ATV industry has been slowly making progress since then and I believe that so will the magazine. And yes constructive critisism should be welcomed but instead of just sayng the mag is sh*t, you should put forward what you beleive could make it better reading for the ATV enthusist around Australia. It is only with this information that we will see this sort of magazine evolve to something that can be enjoyed by everyone. And remember it is very difficult to produce somethig that everyone likes.

Cheers
Chris

Its simple, if u don't like it don't buy it. Don't just sit there and winge bout it, right them a letter or email, and tell them what u don't like bout it. But i'm behind it 1000%.

Fair comments to all so everyone can say thay this mag is 100% perfect.
How past issues have featured farm quads as oppossed to sport quads.
Now look at it like this the best issue to date is the one with the R1 and Adrians Raptor.
There was something to read and look at im sure there is enough modified quads in australia to put into this mag.
People were talking about it every where.
Sticker kits come with instructions you dont need pages on sticker kit applications.
Lets be serious these guys need to add more variety and spice stock bikes dont cut it.
Yeh do a rewiew on new models as there released.
Dig deep you will find that there is a bigger market out there people want variety and if its a sport quad mag make it that.
