Does any one know if this magazine has been knocked on the head or is he just having a break?

Yes, does anyone know why it ended? I have every issue, and thought it was great overall.

Hi, I did the Rad Dad cartoon that appeared in Classic BMX mag whilst it was in production. Andrew (the chap behind the mag) said that he had to stop as he needed to get on with his day job to pay the bills. If you think about it, its a massive undertaking to produce a mag like that and to distribute it. As for cover price, well it was hardly a monthly  magazine- it barely made it to 3 copies a year !

Cheers

Issue #8 was to have the LONDON RAD RIDE in it - it was all written up and with some great pic's for it

then Andrew dropped of the face of the earth and never answered any pm's or facebook or ebay as to what was going on and where number 8 was ?

shame as it was a great mag  ::)
