Dale,

Thanks for the info. Kind of confirms what I have thought for some time. I gave them cash for a renewal 2 years ago at the SF Velo Swap. I never received an issue after that. Too bad; the magazine was a nice idea. Their coverage of Velo Rendezvous and Keepers of the Flame was forward-thinking, at least for our little group.

Regards,
