nacho! Posted November 1, 2010 Share I thought I was the only one disliking the magazine, seems not. Now which are the decent MTB magazines one would recommend? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weight Weenie Posted November 1, 2010 Share If it wasn't for the free sub from my gran I wouldn't even bother, look at the great content in Tread and Ride... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SWM1 Posted November 1, 2010 Share Man, that is poor. I got a subscription from my gf a few months back as a gift. When it ends, I really won't be renewing. There really isn't enough content to keep me interested. And now this? Swak! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rock Posted November 1, 2010 Share Check the next page in the latest issue - DIY Repair Stand - also in another issue about a year ago. Ask for a bigger discount! 2 Articles repeated in the same issue. ja, I though I'd seen that before, though I was losing it...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SWM1 Posted November 1, 2010 Share Check the next page in the latest issue - DIY Repair Stand - also in another issue about a year ago. Ask for a bigger discount! 2 Articles repeated in the same issue. Then the article about Cycling for change (not dissing the cause or the initiative at all here) but is it really necessary to ask 8 Ceo's, covering 5 and a half pages, the same questions? Continue to the "Mission 94.7" article where the are again asking 5 people the exact same questions? Covering 8 pages Do you see the pattern here? Not a lot of work required form the reporter using one set of questions for everyone he interviews!Ok, they are all different people with different answers, but it becomes boring reading the same stuff no matter who is answering them And just wait until The Argus rolls around -we'll probably see a repeat of "109 best ever Argus tips"....

Lucky Luke. Posted November 1, 2010 Share I thought the mag was superb this month. I really admire all those fat ass corporate guys who stuffed themselves into a bit of lycra for their full page profiles, and the probing interviews, which provided powerful insights into a. why cycling is almost the same as being a corporate super hero, but differentb. their expert opinion on the LA doping allegations and c. their training programs to achieve a sub-5 94.7 this year, in between sitting in their offices 50 hours a week printing money for themselves. Freaking awesome ****! Also, the new USN toothpaste looks really great. Edited November 1, 2010 by Luke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest agteros Posted November 1, 2010 Share I enjoy Ride Magazine a lot more than Bicycling. My curiosities are also better satisfied by Go Multi and Triathlon Plus. Runners World has the same "same ol', same ol'" feeling than what Bicycling has to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJR Posted November 1, 2010 Share USN toothpaste - now that's what I call a wicked sense of humour - you are going to be the next John Cleese! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caerus Posted November 1, 2010 Share You can page through it in all of 5 mins at CNA, then buy Tread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tankman Posted November 1, 2010 Share Runners World has the same "same ol', same ol'" feeling than what Bicycling has to it. How much can you really say about running? Ill sum it up for you: "Running is like walking, just faster!" the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest agteros Posted November 1, 2010 Share How much can you really say about running? Ill sum it up for you: "Running is like walking, just faster!" the end. Pretty much like cycling? You sit on your behind, and make your feet go round and round and round. Oh... and some bikes have gears Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caerus Posted November 1, 2010 Share How much can you really say about running? Ill sum it up for you: "Running is like walking, just faster!" the end. But if you do it quicker, its called sprinting. Sorry I spoiled next months issue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
De Vlaamse Leeuw Posted November 1, 2010 Share apparently you just just run for an extended period of time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest agteros Posted November 1, 2010 Share Don't knock running! With just two months of interval running, and 350km of cycling, I could do a semi-respectable 3H13 94.7 Will not dare doing the opposite! Two months of LIGHT cycling and the equivalent kms of running (~90) go and do a running 1/2 marathon or longer? NOT A CHANCE Remember, runners do cycling on their 'rest' days as it is a nice and easy exercise, and cyclists run to get stronger.... Anycase, the Runners World suffers from the same malady as what Bicycling does. Edited November 1, 2010 by agteros Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
