It's good.  More of a fan mag than a racer mag.  I like that it exists.  At least it says something about the interest in road racing.

I like to look at the pictures  ;D

It's okay.  It's a breezy magazine (I believe the trade term).  Even with pics, none of the articles is longer than 3 pages.

It's great. Something this sport has needed for a long time. It personifies the sport. there are really people on those bikes and they have lives, personalities just like the rest of us.

Fans want to know about the racers not just the machines. NASCAR has done this for many years. It's a big part of their continuos growth.

Yes.  Since it is more about the pesonalities than the racing, the girlfriend really likes it too.

+1 , as a racer I personally don't care for it, but it is very good for the sport.  I love the tech stuff and pretty much everything in RRW, racer x is more on the "fru-fru" side  :)

Like it and subscribe too it.  Since the cover motard and dirttrack on occation too it's even better than just a roadrace-centric publication.  That being said, I also have a sub to RRW.

Motorcycling is not, of itself, inherently dangerous. It is, however, extremely unforgiving of inattention, ignorance, incompetence, or stupidity

If you want a broad spectrum of race coverage, it's hard to beat Cycle News. A nice weekly fix...

We get RRW, Cycle World, Motorcyclist, Mini Moto,  Road Racer X, probably some other ones too.  I read them all...Bill try to get your girlfriend to read RRW, I read Road Racer X only but now when RRW gets here Vic and I run to the box to see who can get it first.

  Read it? It's got nice shiny close up pics of machines I can only fantasize about at this point in my incarnation.
