    The xBhp magzine is just amazing....It has everything that I thought a biker magazine should have......Every evening when I come from office I read something or the other from the magzine and sleep with a smile thinking of all the touring, cruising and photography that I have yet to do in my life....Well I haven't been to any long biking tours in my college life except an 100+km ride to my friends native place Vadkhal during the rains of 2009....But. now that I have started working I have a lot of plans and the xBHP magazine has been my source of motivation to chalk out many-many biking tours in the coming future....Right now I am planning to go to Mahabaleshwar in December..which is about 250 kms from Mumbai...Thanks a lot to the xBhp team...and Sunny Bhai of course...You guys have made history by bringing the biking revolution in India and of course in my heart...

      Increase your speed & watch the fun, when someone falls from a Motorcycle,unfortunately he can't choose which way to fall best & hurt himself less.

            Great Mag

            Guys

            Just happened to recieve the mag and went through it completely. Its wonderful and really VFM, the contents were good.

            Few suggestions (Not sure if people had already shared)
            1. Contents looks the same what is seen in the website
            2. There can be a section for speaking about riding gears
            3. Best places / roads to visit in each state
            4. Buy / Sell / Barter ( Just a 2 page)
            5. Bike Costs you have cramped everything in the same edition, instead it could have been split in different editions
            6. The price of the bikes were approximate, it could have been x showroom price of a city
            7. There can be few jokes / comments about bikes / riders to make it more interesting.
            8. Share the best mechanic / rider of the month
            9. contest for the members

            Sorry if i had been giving too much of advice, just my few cents

            I work as a service Marketing Head for a telecom, may be thats the reason

            my apologies
            Never Give up on something that you can't go a day without thinking about.

            Cheers

              Retail outlets

              The "Stores in your city" mentioned, there is no proper address given for any of the store.

              Can the address details of the store-owner be published?

                  Hey guys well should be simpler to pick up the next issue since you've already found out the store. But the magazine is available throughout the country on all major news stands. So should be easy to find. We will try to update the online list as we get more info.

                    Probably the second copy is already out and I hope feedbacks from now can be considered for future editions

                    What I loved about the mag:
                    1.Quality of the paper
                    2.Few articles like "100 tips...., touring in the USA" etc
                    3.Editing of the DVD documentaries and music

                    Sections where the mag needs improvement
                    1.Though I liked both the documentaries, I really felt that the narration could be much, much better. The Italian Road Trip narration sounded very monotonic which was a dissappoint considering the fact that you guys were touring on the bikes which every bikers dream of!!

                    2. Like someone else pointed out, please do away with the hand held mic and we need to hear Sunny speaking too!! Sunny was very silent for both the trips

                      In the Italian trip, Anurag, the other rider, didnt know hiow to take videos so I had to do all that.

                      I wasnt there in the Bandit roadtrip.

                          Today I have finally completed reading all the articles in details!

                          Loved the article by Sunilg the most. What a candid outburst of a biker's emotions!I am sure this long haul of yours is going to be very very long....and you will realize how important it was to listen to your heart over your mind. My best wishes for thee.

                          No wonder this masterpiece is a collector's edition and I would love to fall for Praveer's words during the Bangalore launch : " This will be something like the NAT GEO magazine, which you would love to keep with yourself forever"

                          Looking forward to the next edition and thanks to the team for keeping this time gap of two months! Reading a 200 page magazine ( with pure contents) is not a easy task for someone like me, who gobbles every single word!

                          Hail XBHP!!
                          Thanks,

                            Good things : so many,the best for me is the theme of the mag, no magazine caters to this category.Its gonna rock.

                            Things that can be improved.
                            1) Video should have more vocals while touring not the narration.Maybe clips of video blog. Interaction with ppl you guys met, issues faced etc
                            2) The touring stories are too much about Himalayas, I would love to see more variety.
