The August issue is out now – here’s how to read it
If you receive a printed copy of the magazine each issue you should be happily working your way through it by now. If it still hasn’t arrived please email us and we’ll sort out sending you another copy.
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.
- Read the articles online. Some of these will have extra images not in the print magazine. (Behind the Paywall).
If you were already a member by 25th July 2024, 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 156?
This issue has been jointly created between our outgoing Art Director, Amanda Wishart, and our new magazine designer James Vincent. The result is just as great as ever – interesting designs and layouts to help draw you into the pages and away from the distractions of the world. Let’s see what stories you will find within…
On the cover this issue – Sam Taylor bagged this images of Harry Gascoyne finding the limit of his signature dipped 3 on the big step up at Woburn on a shoot for Calibre bikes.
Editorial
Chipps gets to put together a menu of rides. Does he start bold? Or subtle and build to a crescendo?
UK Adventure: Arran’ A Good Time
Amanda, Rhys and James are reunited for another attempt at making ‘enduro-packing’ seem like a good idea.
Column: Sticking it to science
Put down your calculators and pick up your pitchforks, because Benji has ideas about where you can stick your science…
UK Adventure: Pete’s Peaks
Pete brings us a selection of climbs (and descents) worth bagging, even if they’re not on a fashionable to-do list of must-do mountains.
Through The Grinder
Bits for your body, bike, and the happiness of those who share your shed.
Debate: Earning Your Descents
Chipps is a big fan of earning your descents, while Hannah is just in it for the kicks. Let’s see who can persuade us of their perspective.
International Adventure: Beyond Benidorm
Chipps discovers one blazing sun, two very different worlds on Spain’s Costa Blanca.
Column: Before the party’s over
Mountain biking is getting old. It might be time to sit down and talk to our elders.
Trail Tales: Inconvenient Injuries
We’re too squeamish for crash reels. Instead, we asked you for the more ridiculous – and inconvenient – side of injury stories.
International Adventure: On Royal Trails
Since Bhutan is keen on measuring happiness, it should be no surprise that there is great mountain biking to be found there.
Last word: Know your frenemy
Hannah wonders: is time a healer when it comes to tricky trails?
