Curious why you don't like it. I've subscribed for several years
(don't hoard the back issues; usually use them as impromptu trading
scrip) and find it interesting enough to keep at it, but it does
strongly reflect the editor's own interests -- and who can blame him?
The latest issue was quite interesting, IMO.

One defect is that it lacks sprightly writing: Jan writes competently
but not hugely interestingly. Grant is in the opposite camp: not
always right (and who can blame him?) but always interesting.
Personally, I'd like to see more articles like that a year or two ago
by the woman who toured India on an Indian 3d world roadster.

Moving on: can anyone suggest good general purpose cycling mags, with
an interest in history and in the more unusual bike tech (trikes! Jest
kiddin')? RR is now a very rare bird. Bicycling is not as bad as in
its abysmal days under one Z Espinoza, but it is bland, decaf,
soporific; Cycling Plus is expensive and too bland for the price, not
to mention the fact that it is (of course) Britain focused. Road Bike
Action, Velo News, meh. Mountain Bike Action -- does that still exist?
If so, meh again. Is there another Bicycle Guide out there in the
media cosmos?
