A dedicated group of local motorcycle enthusiasts have got together to produce a new magazine for South and West Wales aimed at Welsh bikers.
UP A GEAR
GearUp issue 1 was launched on August 1st and the GearUp website at www.gearupmag.co.uk is already attracting motorcyclists from across the world.
Publisher Jonathan Sims said, "There are some great motorcycle magazines out there but we wanted to produce something that would really appeal to Welsh bikers. The magazine will be free and funded entirely by advertising."
GearUp already has a great team of contributers onboard. Shaun Pope, writer and test rider said, "This is great fun to be involved with. Riding bikes and writing about them is brilliant and a real privilege."
Mark Johnson, a successful commercial photographer, and biker said, "I'm proud to be a part of GearUp. It's a great team and I get to photograph a subject that is very close to my heart."
Jonathan Sims added, "We've also built a forum into the website so Welsh bikers can connect with each other. We want to build a real community with motorcycles at its centre. That's the GearUp philosophy."
