Welcome Home Doug

Doug Macdonald has written a story in the next issue of Singletrack about his new life in Spain and how his even newer young family has restricted his riding to the dawn and dusk hours of the day. He’s also made this film with Orbea about moving over to a different country to start a new life and a new career as a mountain bike guide. Reckon you could do it?

Mr. Chipps Chippendale

Singletrackworld's ex-Editor At Large

With 25 years as Editor of Singletrack World Magazine, Chipps holds the record for the longest-running mountain bike magazine editor in the world. He started in the bike trade in 1990 and became a full time mountain bike journalist at the start of 1994. Chipps stepped down as Editor in April 2026 after 25 years at the helm. He's now wondering what to do next, while riding his bike in the French Pyrenees, where he also runs some gites.
