I don’t buy bike magazines these days but the wifey’s out trying to harpoon Robbie Williams tonight. Is it worth it? I’m only really interested in the “trip down memory lane” element but realise that MBUK hasn’t been great for years

no

Bloody hell, that means it’s been 5 years since I last bought a copy: even as a one-off 20th anniversary edition it wasn’t worth it.

Nope big let down 🙁 Mint wasn’t as good as usual either 🙁

I’ve got the very first one at home. Perhaps I’ll just re-visit that in celebration.

Theres a reasonably interesting article on the evolution of the trail centre alongside the development of mtbing, and a look at Peaty’s DH bike form 25 yrs ago compared to now. More of a history lesson for teh yoot than a fond look back really.

It haz stickerz

Had a flick through at Tescos, same garbage as usual but with Stickerz and a cardboard box.
Better off with a copy of Razzle or similar.

MBR has free socks and a weather proof phone bag this month. Buy that instead.
The mag itself is quite good too 😀

I pretty much get my entire stock of ‘sports’ socks from MBR. Also got about three beanie hats now too.
