Issue 109 is off at the printers now, turning digital magic into real life paper pleasure. If you want this delivered to your door, you need to pre-order it here.
If that cover and the promise of the smell of freshly printed paper isn’t enough to get you ordering, read on. There is oh so much more…
In this issue of Singletrack, we bring you:
UK Adventure – Jacob’s Cracker

Interview: David Turner

Classic Ride: Sutton Bank
This steep Yorkshire road climb is known for being too horribly busy (unless it’s been blocked by a misguided lorry) to ride. But how are the trails away from the fumes of brakes and clutches?
Bike Test: Sub £1000 hardtails.
We check out three hardtails under the magic figure of a grand. There’s no carbon and no full suspension at this price point, but is there fun? You bet there is!
Grouptest: Dropper Seatposts
We check out the highs and lows of the current dropper post market.
Grinder: The team bring you goods ridden through the season of mists and mellow fruitfulness. And possibly a touch of mud.
