Not sure what sort of details you'd need. Would they be at the link for the magazine website?Originally Posted by RoadRaven
I haven't seen Cycling+
Can you give me some publication details? I might see if my local bookshop can get in a copy for me to look at

"How about if we all just try to follow these very simple rules of the road? Drive like the person ahead on the bike is your son/daughter. Ride like the cars are ambulances carrying your loved ones to the emergency room. This should cover everything, unless you are a complete sociopath."

My favorite cycling magazine is Procycling. I also like Cycle Sport, though not quite as well. Both of these are magazines about racing, though, so I suspect they might not be what you're looking for.
Bicycling is pretty mediocre. They occasionally run an article that I find interesting or inspiring, but I haven't decided if that makes up for the issues that have no useful content at all. I would like the magazine a lot better if they talked more about riding and less about what to buy. I am currently debating whether or not to renew my subscription.

I love UK publications in general and would LOVE to subscribe to Cycling+ but --
Gulp!
That's almost $100 a year.
I'm going to have to think about this. Yikes.

There are a couple of new ones out. One is a big glossy rag called Road and another is Road Bike Action. Both are racing oriented but good reads.

Thanks for the replies. I might think about Road Bike Action. I put the links below to both for anyone who wants to check them out. Road Bike Action lets you look at several pages of an issue. You can buy a paper verion or an on-line version.

Thanks for the warning about Bicycle. I had an advertisement from them that got me thinking about getting a cycling magazine.

I was just going to post about Road Bike Action. This is a new mag from the publishers of Mountain Bike Action. My husband has been getting comp'd issues as a licensed racer. We both like this one a lot more than Bicycling. Outside of their mistake of picking their favorite to win the TdF too early (they chose Basso), it's a decent read.
