I had to say neither. I get most of the sidecar news before it goes in BSN, and I post some of it on the site 8-)

BSN - on the odd occasion that I'm in the UK :roll:

Out here I subscribe to a weekly classic bike paper and take a monthly magazine Moto légende, all good stuff. Otherwise I rely heavily on the site for info :D
It is true about the sidecar family - you can stop racing but you can never, ever leave!

I buy "Classic Racer" which is a bi-monthly, and occasionally BSN (during the racing season). Results, reports and photographs usually appear on this site (and others) sometimes a week before the printed copy appears, so the last few times I've bought BSN I have found myself re-reading news (often word - for - word).

It must be five years since I last bought MCN, there's hardly any column space devoted to any form of road racing, even the TT. At one time, they used to print all the results from club level upwards, and often the odd photograph and race reports. Now it just seems to be constant product reviews and road tests.

BUT the MCN website does have race results and reports it seems. I did a google for something the other day and one of the results was an MCN article with a report from Cadwell park I think it was, definitely an F2 race some time in the last couple of years.
