What's this about a phone call? My phone's out of commission so I've not been able to receive one.

I have had several offers of free mags and always have rec' them - sometimes from the same publishing company..... it usually takes some time though

Cyclists are either road or MTB = another boring cycling mag = alienates everyday cyclists.

What about everyday cyclist, the commuter and family cycling?

We need a mag for these cyclists and not just the occasional token article.

Doesn't Cycle Active cater for that.

I have glanced through it and thought it looked quite a good read based on balance of articles for this time of year. Not read a single word yet though, so that could change.

I like the fact that you can tell its sister mag is Cyclist, but the graphics differentiate it quite a lot at the same time.

Urban Cyclist is a guilty pleasure for me, although that may be aimed more at the hipster/Hoxton type rider.
Also, free on line, is Urban Velo. Similar market, both bimonthly

The thing that annoys me about cycling mags is you can get most of the content (from one vendor or another) for free on the internet... that is if you can bare to read past the man down stories...

Received my copy today.. haven't had a chance to go through it properly. But seems to be a heck of a lot of reviews and low on reading content. Will give it a good going over when I have the time.

Cycling Plus may well be changing significantly over the coming months since it has been bought up by new publishers. Frankly, change is overdue. It'll be interesting to see what we're up against.

Just cancelled my mamil mag sub today so i am in the market for something new.
I do get the occasional cyclist and it might be my mag of choice .
