Rattle, thunk, slap. For some lucky people, the print magazine has already landed, and for a few more it’s in the post. If you fancy joining riders and readers all over the world with some time out and a good long immersion in mountain biking tales and information, here’s what to do.
The April issue is out now – here’s how to read it
If you receive a printed copy of the magazine each issue it should arrive any day now if you’re in the UK. If it still hasn’t arrived by 22nd April please email us and we’ll send you another copy. If you’re outside the UK, it might take up to a month to make its way to you, across the sea and overland, so hopefully it’ll be with you by 6th May.
If you want to read the magazine online, or you join us today, you have other options too:
- You can download a pdf of the magazine here. This is an exact copy of the printed magazine.
- You can download an ePub version of the magazine. This is a more basic version of the magazine, with fewer pictures, that you can read in a variety of electronic book programmes, such as iBooks, or on an iPad.
- You can download a Kindle version, for your Kindle. Like the ePub version, this is optimised for Kindles, so has all the words, but far fewer pictures.
- Read the articles online. (Behind the Paywall).
If you were already a member by 25th March 2023, you can also download a version of the mag from Pocketmags if you have an iPad or iPhone. We get charged for every download in this format, so you only get access to the versions created while you had an active membership – so if you want a back issue from before you joined us, try one of the other formats above.
And of course, you can just buy a copy from our webshop:

What’s inside Singletrack World issue 154?
Let’s start with the cover – Pete Scullion does it again:
Photographer: Pete Scullion
Rider: Joe Barnes
Camera: Nikon D850
Camera Settings: Nikon 70-200mm f/2.8G VR II at 70mm. 1/2000, f8, ISO 640.
About the shot: Joe Barnes doing Joe Barnes things in the shadow of Beinn Fhada’s northern ridges on one of those days where the sky stays blue, the legs have plenty of juice and the descents flow like water.
And on to what’s inside… take a deep breath, sniff those pages… lose yourself…
