Tumbleweed Posted January 5, 2016 Share Just checked on Amazon, book is cheap enough (good 2nd hand about $3), but shipping is $30, so might wait till I can get in the UK. Cool. There's some really awesome writing in there...contributors from when Bicycling was a really, really good read. HeyYou 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeyYou Posted January 5, 2016 Share Cool. There's some really awesome writing in there...contributors from when Bicycling was a really, really good read. Just bought it on Amazon UK, £0.01 (very good used) and £7.00 shipping, so about R180, pretty good. And yes, last time I subscribed to Bicycling was about '88 and Runners World too. After that writing became 'formulated' and mags became boring. Edit: always have to edit, too many bloody big fingers and thumbs, or is it my forgoodnesssake keyboard????

CDK Posted January 5, 2016 Share About to start this:How is this? Busy with a project re the Boer war,and working with Dr Jackie Grobler, what a guy amd what knowledge! But as i realized this holiday(another thread on its own) history is what we are told! Can not wait for our road trip in two weeks to dicuss this problem. Even the Angolan war, reading 5 books on the same battle from the same side, gives you something different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ja, Rodale had a purge of some old time writers and editors - Zap Espinoza, with that weird ear-gear of his, was a fave - in the mid-2000s and lost a helluva lot of readers. The death was complete when Mountain Bike quietly was eaten up. Edited January 6, 2016 by Tumbleweed HeyYou 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
