I know a few of us have Amazon Prime, but what isn't so obvious is that includes Prime Reading, which in itself includes RiDE and Practical Sportsbike. Just thought it was worth mentioning here.

is that the main prime member, or other people who use the prime account?

I think it is anyone on the account. The downside is they cant be read on a PC. Needs to be through the Kindle app, so a device basically. I browse for publications at work and click the "send to X device", and when you get home they are downloaded and waiting for you.

Any tips / links on how to find it? Just been browsing the prime reading section and couldnt see it. More interested in Ride.

Ride:

Neither are showing as free through Prime for me, both 30-day trial then sub.

When i use those links i get them same. I think the key is to go into Prime Reading first. Then you might see it as this:

Once in the Prime Reading bit if you scroll down there will be suggested magazines. As with Amazon Video you need to look for titles with the wee prime corner.

you have to be the person who subscribed to prime to get it.

if someone else subscribed to prime, and you share the benefits through prime household, then you dont get it frown

Eventually found in the Prime Reading - Magazines section (which isn't actually linked anywhere): https://www.amazon.co.uk/kindle-dbs/fd/prime-pr-ma...

No Practical Sportsbike though.

Practical sportbike isn't on Prime Reading - you can get it for the 30day free trial then you have to pay for it after that.

Thanks OP for your post I had looked at this before as I had a copy of June 2017s ride mag sitting in my Android Kindle app - I can get the latest F1 Mag and Ride mags on my prime reading account which are of interest to myself.

I have a few issues of PS via prime. I dont think all titles are available every month. PS might come back for Feb copy.

Maybe its a different thing but the Household Sharing thing covers "Kindle Owners' Lending Library", which i thought this was.

Does Kindle have an app for the iPad that I could read these on? I do have a kindle but it's one of the original ones so not great for graphics/magazine layout.

thanks for the link.

Ride and various other mags downloaded. Loaded the kindle app on the iphone and good to go!

Prime is brilliant, as is the Amazon Echo that we got the Kids ( me ) for xmas

Just tried it on my Android phone: Ride magazine is £2.99 on Amazon Prime, but I think its free only if you sign up to Kindle Unlimited at £7.99/month

Cheers, got it working on my iPad - it's a bit convoluted to get there isn't it?
