Some said we were crazy, and they may have been right, but we did it! The first issue of the official ADVrider Magazine is being delivered to inmates around the country right now. We went from knowing little-to-nothing about print to producing what I believe to be an exceptionally high-quality publication. No effort or cost was spared on the content or the printing. We wanted this to be a magazine people hold onto for a long time.
@Baldy’s reaction to the magazine.
But don’t take my word for it! Here is an extract of an email I received this morning from a long-time inmate (edited for length) …
I wasn’t sure what to expect when I started getting emails about the upcoming magazine, given my disappointment with previous moto magazines I have subscribed to … However, I am very impressed with this first issue. Excellent writing and photography and a variety of subjects providing a balanced view of the adventure riding world and published in a quality format. Even my wife, who has zero interest in two wheels, commented on how interesting and well written the magazine is. I initially suggested she read the article by Baldy on the beginning of AVDRider online, but she went on to read the whole issue! And now I’ve received orders to prepare a few of the featured recipes from the magazine…
It was wonderful to see a home run at your first bat!
If you would still like a copy, we have just50unallocated copies left. Unfortunately, because international shipping is so expensive we can only ship these remaining copies within the USA. If you would still like a copy,fill out this form ASAP.Please note: these orders won’t be received until January.
If you ordered already, expect to receive your copy this week in the USA. If you ordered internationally, due to COVID we cannot say when it will arrive, but it will. As an international myself, I am eagerly awaiting my physical copy.
Lastly, let me say a huge thank you to everyone involved, especially @Rudy, Jenni who did the layout and graphics, and our writers and photographers. Rudy spent a crazy amount of time working on this magazine and making sure that USA orders arrive before Christmas. The writers and photographers did a phenomenal job producing magazine-worthy content.
