    It doesn't actually do very much other than locally irritate your skin and produce a transient feeling of warmth, but it feels good and a little bit 'pro'. Baby oil works better to let you slide if you come off tho.

    There seems to be a lot about New England 'cross in it.

    But not much else.

    I've got a couple of issues; I've not felt the need to buy more.

    IIRC (at work ATM so can't check) it's 3&4 I've got – I shall have a look in the morning when I get home. The only things that stick in my mind were an in depth interview with Mo Bruno Roy, and an article in the same mag about how Seven built her 2x custom cross frames…

    The other one may have had a thing about Indy Fabs but I can't be 100% off the top of my head.

    TBH you can get all you need from all the various sites. Just cobble together cyclocross.com/cowbell with Rapha blog and the team sites of your choice.
