Don't really see why there practically none in the uk. I've found that quite alot of medium sized news agents in France stock several, XPaint just to name one of them..

Because to break even you need to sell somewhere in the region of 2000 copies per issue
Advertising sales will reduce that figure, but question is with the way the sport is at the moment in this country, is it worth the financial risk.
One of the things to note is that the magazines in France are already established.
