Sure there are writers (hi!)...but do you know what kind of job it would be making a full e-zine or something every month even with 10 or so people? It would mean that money would need to be involved. Are you willing to pay? Do you have friends willing to pay?

pay up foo.

....Mabey a once a year mag. possibly. But that would still need some pretty good size donations. I would buy one....even if it is $30

Maybe we can get 3wheeler.org and midwest trikers to to help us out with a Mag. I would glady donate some dollas for a Trike Mag.

I think it would be a good idea. But there is a lot of work behind it! How could we all help when we are so far away? Make some pages on the net?

I think the biggest hurdle would be the money. I mean i have no idea what goes into making a mag. but I know money talk's. Like i said, I would give all I could to help. That include's pic's, creditable articale's, new's and info. on the trike product's that are quickly fading, Good and bad riding spot's, and cashola,. ect...people post your idea's.
:evil: AND WHY ARE PEOPLE VOTING NO!!!!!!

I also think it would be a great idea BUT it wouldn't be like the mags you're thinking about like ATV Action and Dirt Wheels, etc. It would have to be like a bunch of computer pages stapled together or something of that nature. Also, since there are virtually no 3-wheeler events now, all we would have to cover is those organized by us (3WW), Trike Heaven, the .org crew, and the Midwest Trikers. But still those articles would be great to read!! We could also have like a "How-To" section, "Hot-Mods", etc. Product reviews, readers rides, and so on and so on. But like everyone has said, there will be alot of $$$ involved. Maybe cut one of the forums like Bikersville or something and have a forum just for the mag, where information from users could be received and saved and later edited into the mag. And, like all the other forums, have moderators to help categorize all info and send them to the person(s) who agree to print them. Just my thoughts....

The "no's" are easy to explain, and its got nothing to do with whether or not you like trikes. You started this post basically with "I think everyone should vote that someone from this site should create a magazine, and Ill be happy to subscribe to it", instead of "I am creating a magazine dedicated to 3 wheelers, and am looking for help and ideas".

If you wish to pursure such a venture, Im sure the site will promote it, and people will be happy to help you, but taking a vote that someone else ought to do it, will not likely be well received by those who have been voted to do the work. Especially when you are talking of something with a total circulation of 20-30 people, which is not likely to produce much financial incentive for the site or the individual who decides to take on such a project.
