Those rags ain't been the same since the 70's
Last one that I ever bought was the Horse,
When GTP quit/moved on or whatever,
Was the end of it,

What Billy said. Became a joke by the 80's.

Have not even turned a page in maybe 10 years but have a few hundred magazines in boxes in my building. Sorry to learn that they have become another casualty of the sign of the times. Pathetic when this happens to a bike rag but not entirely shocked.

sign of the times is absolutely right...never would I thought easyriders would feature a centerfold with gay men touching and looking at each other

Sign of the times that's for sure, politicle correctness is one of the worse things to have come out of America. All they're going to do with this is alienate their existing readers, if they want to appeal to gay bikers just bring out another mag. Or on the other hand they may just be taking the p***.

I went from Easyriders to Outlaw Biker and Iron Horse..the latter just couldn't keep it together with infighting and making money. A sad state of affairs, the pussification of the American Biker. I still have a bunch of the old magazines to look over and reminisce.
