MCN Letter of the Week
Wed, 11 Feb 2009
I enjoy reading motorcycle news it brightens up the dark winter days, and I dream of the lovely spring days when I can get the Sv 650 out of the garage and back onto the road.
Page 24 of the latest MCN intrigued me can you tell me exactly what you are trying to insinuate by the headline NOT A GIRLS BIKE I find and I am sure many other female readers will find that deeply offensive, and sexist.Especially when this new bike has been inspired by my bike!!!!
Then to top it all on page 9 of your bike show supplement you say that the Gladius NOT A GIRLS BIKE......will attract female and new riders, do you have any idea at all what you are doing ???? either its not for us or it is make your minds up.
Anyway when you get a minute just take a look around we are growing in number we are riding fast bikes we are competing at all levels, just look at the wonderful Maria Costello, so please be careful with your headlines and please make sure you have your facts straight before going to press otherwise a good read, so maybe soon you can put more articles in your paper for us ladies that are not repulsive and sexist.
