Which magazine?

[ededwards]

I like to read in the bath (probably excessive information) and am struggling with the accessing retrobike v electrocution question.

Any good cycling magzines that I should be looking at (having 'read' MBR today)?

I quite like parts of Singletrack but don't totally buy into this 'we're just like you' ethos, Rouleur (the Rapha magazine) has some great articles and superb photos but is stupidly priced (£9 a copy) plus the whole mise en scene/homoerotic marketing (see www.secretsofthepeleton.com for further details), The Outcast is a bit too fanzine and the rest seem to just refer to hucking and freeride (not really sure what either means).

Buy/read a mag :shock: I haven't done that since 92. But then i have a shower

I've found the web far more help than any mag

I pick up MBA on the local marked for les than £0.50 , one month late mind you but good enough .

thats about what I'd be happy to pay
I read old MBAs that I own, but its exceptionally rare that I buy new bike mags.

no way I am paying £3.95 for magazine .

that is why £0.50 is enough

get a blackberry!

(just don't drop it in the bath)

or get a wireless laptop and a plank of wood to put across the bath to rest it on!

I didn't buy a mag for years, then stumbled across Bike in a big WHSmiths and bought it. I didn't begrudge a penny of the price - £3ish? - as the articles were well written and it had some fantastic pics.

Still get it every now and then.

I get my Mint Sauce fix from http://www.thisiswhy.co.uk

Ed,

Bike for pics,

Dirtrag for words.


The Americans always make good mags.
