I've been a subscriber to Bike magazine since about 1994 when I got it for entering a charity ride, iirc. I always renewed and it has been the only print media I receive except for Westways, which comes with Auto Club membership.
Bike was absorbed by another publisher and is no longer in print. Instead, they are sending Men's Journal to Bike subscribers. Meh. So far I haven't found it very interesting but it's seems predictable. It also has cigarette ads! I thought that was out?

Speaking of forbidden ads, it's interesting to go back and look at some of the TV ads from the 1950s and 1960s. Beer ads, for instance. Ever notice that beer ads don't show anyone actually drinking the beer? It wasn't always so!

Yeah, I remember when I started buying car magazines again after a decade or two of not buying them. After years of no tobacco ads on TV, seeing print ads is jarring. "Didn't they outlaw those?", I thought. Nope.

I remember seeing Moto GP bikes which were raced in Europe with Lucky Strike as their main sponsor and when they raced in the US they made the LS logo into a Pac-Man, among other things.
