Default New "digital" motocross magazine

I found out today about a new "digital" motocross magazine. It's an Italian based magazine that is written in English for the sole-purpose of reaching readers throughout the world!

The first issue that's released is the December issue and it is free to download. You will need to register for a username to download it and the future issues. Not sure if it will be always free, but the last page of this month's magazine mentioned the January issue is also free to download.

The December issue is large (35 MB) and contains about 220 pages. I browsed through it briefly and have to say that I was impressed with the amount of coverage. It covers all aspects of racing from motocross, enduro, trials, supermoto, etc.. There is coverage of the 2006 ISDE, Endurocross, and various motocross races. There are several bike reviews... including a thorough review of the 2007 GasGas FSR450.

Note: this magazine runs in it's own application. After downloading, you launch the application (like a video game) and browse through it, flipping pages, zooming, etc.. You can also print it out which makes it easier to read. I plan to do this but it's going to take a stack of paper.

If you are interested, here is the link to the website:

Default liked the mag but what happened to the FSR

I enjoyed the mag, but I was concerned by what they had to say about the FSR. If their take on the new GasGas is correct, it has gone mainsteam.
As a bike that was designed for stability but one that you have to work harder in the tight stuff, it sounds unlike what I admire in the GGs.

Here's hoping MXD isn't very good at evaluating bikes.
