I've lost track of how many times I've written something on Facebook and/or on here, posted it...and the re-read it later on and spotted a simple mistake.

Well that's no problem, just click the old 'edit' button and the jobs sorted!

Lol.......received my copy of Scootering today, it's the first edition I've been totally responsible for, and given the circumstances and time frame I had to work in I was very pleased to get the magazine to press bang on time.

But Sod's law, as I open this months mag (Subscribers get theirs today, newsstand next Thursday) I was flicking through it all and straightaway I spotted a bloody typo! I was well pissed off....lol.

The sentence should read: '.....GP mudguard and S2 legshields....' However I've written GP mudguard and GP legshields......right next to the picture of the obvious S2 legshields......lol, I was mortified when I saw it.

It's always the case when isn't it, just when you want everything to go right, some minor details sticks out like a sore thumb and cocks it up for you! Lol

Oh well, that error aside, I must say I'm really pleased with the overall result, I hope you all like the few new additions and changes I've made so far, and rest assured that continued development is ongoing each month. I look forward to feedback on here.....just try not to be too harsh on my first edition ;)

Regards

Dan :)

Until now I preferred it in it's Weston guise.

Got too slick, corporate.

Judgment reserved.
