The American Motorcycle Association announces it's monthly magazine 'American Motorcycling', "The greatest sport in the world", is raising it's subscription rate to $3.00 a year.
The AMA warns riders to not freak out, the single issue copy will remain at 35 cents.
The last issue (May, 1959) features pieces on the Triumph 40 incher's (650cc), "Motorcycling's Mighty Foursome" - T120 Bonneville, 6T Thunderbird, TR6 Trophybird and the T110 Road Cruiser. Read about NSU "The Superior Lightweights", the new Ariel 250cc "Leader" and Norton's new scrambler, the "Nomad".
The feature article/cover story is all about 'Class "A" Short Track Action at Fresno, California'. It's 1/4 mile fever with riders such as Dick Mann, Don Hawley and George Everett, to mention but a few.
Plus the always unpredictable weather at the 39th Annual AMA New England Rally and high-lights of the Michigan Gypsy Tour.
All that for a measly 3 bucks a year!
