What to do with read bike mags

[Pushrod]

I've spent enough time in hospital waiting areas to know an awful lot about golf courses and household hints.

All my M/C magazines land in waiting area racks. My wife has Leukemia and I notice that my mags are read and reread by other guys waiting for their wives.

when I moved, I had many year's worth of the UK Bike magazine - the really good ones with great photography and amazing articles. I couldn't even give them away here.

they ended up in the recycle bin.

I have about 80 magazines, Bike mag and Fast Bikes going back to 2007 and up to lasts months FB. Clearing out and wondered if there’s anywhere that could use them. What do y’all do with old magazines. Just throw them out?
Thought about wallpapering the bathroom with them, but that’s not happening apparently.

???????

I only subscribe digitally since many years. So I can’t relate. All old mags have been tossed many years. :thumbup

Holy shit. I now know what to do with all my old Guns & Ammo Annuals!

I don't keep a lot of magazines, mainly I just pick them up at airport newstands when traveling, but all the Nat Geo Historical Reports and Guns & Ammo annuals tend to make it home with me.

I'm keeping the Nat Geo's. :x

Paved the way for the recently departed.

Donate them to your dentist, doctor, or hairdresser's office.

This is what I was going to suggest.

I had saved decades worth of motorcycle and Car and Driver magazines and finally went through them all, ripped out the articles that I thought I might want to read again, then tossed the remains in the recycling bin. So now I have two or three boxes of articles on the top shelf of my closet that I need to go through "one of these days". :laughing

Digital records take up little space, scan or take pix of it all.

No, but they take a lot of time.

It takes seconds to tear out an article and shove it in an envelope. Scanning can be a pandoras box.
