I feel the pain. The pain of a magazine, not capitalizing on a younger generations need for glossy pictures, vivid coloring and young nude girls on bikes. BUT... Instead, when reading this magazine I feel a hint of nostalgia and a look into past of Harley Davidson culture. Being a young guy riding A Harley to and from my office job where I reply to blogs, sometimes it is nice to read an article and find ways to relate to "how it was" if you may. The "auto trader" pages give me a feel of how the magazine still represents a older generation of harley enthusiasts and makes me want to grown my hair long and paint an American flag on my gas tank and only hang out in biker bars...whoa whoa..sorry I got lost in the moment there. The pictures of the woman over 40 though...well ok thats where I draw the line. Just a thought..
