Steve1962 Posted May 18, 2006 Share Posted May 18, 2006 I received this pm [ although not on this site ] ......... Hi Steve Hope you don't mind me contacting you. I was browsing the web and stumbled across your lovely pictures... I'm a journalist for RiDE magazine and we run a section of the mag called readers rides: whereby we feature favourite ride out routes/pictures as sent in by our readers. I was just hoping you'd be able to do one for us? All we'd need are some step by step directions of your favourite route. The start/finish point. Approx distance/time it takes to ride. And some lovely pictures to illustrate it. In return for your hard work, we'll send you a brand new set of Dunlops for your trouble. Interested? Best wishes Emma Franklin Staff Writer RiDE Magazine emma.franklin@emap.com Watch this space .............. when the weather improves I'll be back out on the road with the bike and camera again !!

Boffin Posted May 18, 2006 Share Posted May 18, 2006 Nice one Steve , Your eye for a picture has obviously caught thier eye, and with RiDe being one of the more 'grown up' bike mags that is morekudos to you - but tell them to keep the Dunlops and stick out for a pair of Conti Road Attacks - I love those tyres Andy Link to comment
