I guess I haven't read one in a few months. Weedmaps? Really, way to make sure my subscription runs out and doesn't get renewed. Or given to my 7 year old to read. As a former Transworld advertiser(snow) and friend of a lot of the people that built Transworld it's just sad. Those magazines go into a lot of states where what is advertised it totally illegal, way to finish off a once great group of magazines.

Correct me if I'm wrong but I don't think they put actual weed in there.

So what if budlight was a sponsor? I haven't seen the ads but I don't believe they would have anyone "handling" anything illegal? Not like a 7 yo is going to instantly see the words Weedmaps and begin consuming? BTW I believe it's an app to find near by shops.

Well we know who the chronic pot smokers on this board are, is there really nobody here that has a problem with an MX magazine running pot business ads?

I think you need to chill. I don't use weed but the fact is that alcohol is more dangerous compared to weed.

Do whatever you want with that info.

The fact that some countries have legalized it should be a sign that weed shouldn't be stigmatized.

I am impressed by your moral superiority over everyone on this website. You should be like our pastor or something

If Weedmaps money helps Transworld throw races like the TranSlam and several others, Im all for it. Sponsors aren't knocking on the doors of most teams/riders these days, especially privateers.

Unlike everyone else I am with you on this, I think it was an unwise move on their part but I don't think they care about my opinion.

"Methmaps, hell why not right?" I think that says enough about where you view smoking or consuming marijuana.

Glad to hear it's not just me. And how about some contrast between print and background color?

First post ever. Just wanted to comment on how mad this post title made me. I come on vital hoping the 450 shootout is out. Nope not yet. Then I see this one labeled transworld and then I get excited that maybe there shootout is done. No instead i get some vitard complaining about weedmaps. If you don't like it don't buy the magazine easy as that. Oh and sell you kids bike and buy them a tennis racket instead because this is not the sport for either one of you.

I've never touched weed and I don't have a problem with it. Curious, did you boycott SX when camel or coors was sponsoring?

Yes, I have a problem with them advertising it. I haven't bought one of their mags in years. My kids are all grown but it still isn't right, my opinion. One of the reasons I still subscribe to MXA. Yeah, I'm one of those.

Crime in this area hasn't gone through the roof with people coming from Sacramento to break into houses to steal cigarettes and beer.

And to each their own. I understand there is a bad rap on it.

But I'm more of the type to educate and explain than to hide and look the other way.

Same as with gun safety, sex ed and drinking alcohol.

An educated kid has a better understanding and will usually make better choices.

But either way, they will make their choice with or without your consent or turning a blind eye to a magazine ad.
