I think it shows the change in generations being online, the current off road finances and general economy

A great shame to see this disappear

Bugger. I do only sporadically buy it so I do have to shoulder some of the blame, but still sad to here. I only ever made it in once, with the results of an Enduro in 2019 listing the top 6 in every class, I had a 4th in Sportsman and my brother a 6th so thats our moment of fame! My dad was in there a few times I think in the early 80s winning a few MX races though. Unfortuntely with the rise of online news platforms, social media and Youtube, its the way all printed media is heading.

Sign of the times unfortunately.

Internet has been a revelation, bit it's killed hard written copies of many bike mags.

TMX was a must buy along with MCN back in the day,

A very sad day as I remember the very first one that we bought when they started back in 1977.

We were just lads at school, and would read it in our mates bedroom and wonder at all those cool Motocross bikes that we all dreamt about owning.

Having got back into the off road scene in the last couple us years and starting back on trials with my Montesa, I have been buying it every week, so it’s really sad to hear they are shutting up shop.
