go for Tread magazine

[typhoon]

get both, and throw in Tread mag too, gives you lots of reading material.

[Hairy]

Given up on the local mags and find really good content on sites such as Bike Radar, Flow MTB, Vital, MTBr, Pinkbike, etc

I'de say Ride or Tread

 

The last Tread mag, issue #26 was prob one of the best mags/reads in a long time I read.

Tread is better than the rest, but still far off international mag quality. Pity the euro mags are triple the price.

Tread +1

 

Good ol' MTB Action & MBUK at u'r local CNA. I like the online mags, but there's just something special about holding a magazine in your hands. Plus you can read it on the throne.......I don't have a tablet.

none, as an avid MTB i have no interest in following top rides or even events(even if its on the tele), any technical info that i need i get from my friends or the hub!

 

When i look at the back of the mags they always have some guy next to a cool bike. I never know who the guy is...

Most mags, especially SA ones are full of BS and just regurgitate the same nonsense training tips and so on time and again. Nothing bar xc and marathon racing seems to exist in their world. The reviews are also poor and read more like advertorials. Online sites have just about rendered them obsolete. Try Vital MTB, Bike Mag.com and Pinkbike - the list goes on.

I put Ride at the bottom because they once paired a Golf Mag with it?
