Press Release

Cycle News Digital Debut!‏




America’s Weekly Motorcycle News Source set for February 15 release

IRVINE, Calif.,- With a history of over 40 years of
producing a weekly motorcycle newspaper that fans of the sport and the
industry have relied on, Cycle News will turn the page on February 15
with the debut of its made- for-digital publication.
The new Cycle
News, which is now part of the Motorsport Aftermarket Group (MAG), will
be published weekly, but now promises unmatched timeliness with a
Tuesday delivery no matter where the reader lives.


“One of the frustrations of the printed Cycle News was the fact that
its delivery was unreliable,” said editor Paul Carruthers. “We’d send
the publication to the printer on Monday night, but then it was out of
our hands and into the postal system. While some received their issues
on Wednesday or Thursday, others didn’t get theirs until the following
week. That doesn’t work well for a news-based publication. Readers will
now get their digital issue delivered to their computers and/or iPads
every Tuesday.”


In addition to reliable and timely delivery, the digital Cycle News
will also bring readers a more dynamic package with photography slide
shows, videos, etc. – both editorially and in the publication’s
advertising content – making for a richer reading experience. Each
issue will have full search capabilities; readers will be able to share
stories via social media; issues can be downloaded and read off-line;
stories can be printed; and subscribers will have full access to past
issues.


“I’m of the belief that content is king and Cycle News will continue
to be the leader when it comes to factual, reliable news stories
presented in a timely manner,” Carruthers said. “But our new format
will also allow us to give our readers more features, bike tests,
interviews and behind-the-scenes information than ever before. We’re
excited about the new Cycle News and look forward to providing readers
with everything they’ve ever wanted in a motorcycle publication.”


A one-year, 50-issue subscription to Cycle News is available at www.CycleNews.com
