Hello to you all and welcome to this week’s edition of stuff-that-has-arrived at STW HQ! Otherwise known as Fresh Goods Friday. What dowe have for you this week? Why, simple...
What is Fresh Goods Friday?
It’s Singletrack’s long running, weekly roundup of all of the new products that have been sent in to the magazine.
Where do all of the goods come from?
They’re sent in by bike companies and marketing agencies
What happens to all of the products?
They’re featured and then some are reviewed down the line in either Singletrack Magazine or in online reviews and photoshoots.
What happens to them when you’ve finished with them?
They’re usually sent back after review, or kept on long-term test bikes. But no one ever asks for shorts and shoes back. Trust us on that. Once we were asked to return some brake pads.
I’m a company making the next big thing. How much does it cost to feature in FGF?
Nothing. Nil. Zero. Diddlysquat. Sod all. Just send all ‘next big things’ to us at – Fresh Goods Friday, Singletrack Magazine, Lockside Mill, Dale Street, Todmorden. OL14 5PX. Please note that if you require the products back after they have featured then you are responsible for arranging collection at your cost. While it is our policy to feature everything we receive in FGF if we decide your product is not suitable for publication we won’t do it. Publication is at our discretion. Whether a product goes on for publication as a review is at editorial discretion. Beer, coffee & spirits will ALWAYS be tested.
Hey there gang! We trust you\'re are acceptably radical and primed for another supremely stoke-filled weekend. That\'s stoke. Not Stoke.
What are you lot talking about? Assuming it\'s neither football nor shopping, dare we guess that you\'re currently thinking about cycling?
It is too soon after last Friday for it to be Friday again. In many respects this is a good thing: we can now take full advantage of the weekend...
Roll up! Roll up! Come get yer Fresh goods \'ere! Good Friday today, which means the Annual Chocolate Celebration is almost upon us.
Spring is here! Woo! Yeah! Alright alright alright! Break out the shorts? Slap on semi-slicks? Here is your weekly allocation of Fresh Goods.
The middle. It\'s not the place to be. You either want to be at the top with the winners. Or at the bottom bitching with the other losers.
Welcome to Friday! Most people\'s favourite day of the week. Apart from Sundays. And also Saturdays.
TFFT meaning Thank Fully February is Through. And whose idea was it to stick an extra flipping day on the end of it?
Hello, hello, is this thing on? It’s been a while since I (Hannah) have done one of these. I’m usually quite busy on a Friday writing the Weekly Word and...
For this week\'s Fresh Goods Friday we have escaped the shrouded misty slopes of TodMorDen and headed on over to... Stockport.
This week has been about a big delivery that we\'ve been awaiting. Yes, we have become a grandmother. Er, no. That\'s not it. That\'s not it at all.
Dave\'s not here man. And neither is anyone else. We\'re all having a day off. We call them Crank Holidays.
Testing, testing, one, two, three... is this thing on? Welcome one and all to the latest and some* would say greatest edition of FGF!
Hello! Good afternoon! And welcome to this week\'s FGF. Come on in, the water\'s lovely. Actually, it\'s not. It\'s not even water. It\'s ice.
What\'s new this FGF? Well, we\'ve decided to get with the now and make a weekly video to go with the web story.
As we all know, today is Twelfth Night. That\'s right, the coming of the Epiphany. More importantly, have bin collections resumed properly yet?
Have you been out riding every day, making the best use of every day off? Are you back at work already? Did you not even stop for Christmas? Or are...
Are we nearly there yet? A none more familiar family-er cry during long journeys. In this instance it\'s not a car trip though...
It\'s the middle of December and things are already beginning to slow down in the world of Fresh Goods. BUT... here it is: FGF Episode 683!
Kudos to everyone out there who is still mountain biking. Don\'t hang up your boots yet! December is a difficult month to keep on keeping on.
Is it even December? My [Hannah] kids think it is because they are opening their advent calendars. I do not have an advent calendar (Although really, the Wera Tools one...
Drool on this way, peruse the goods, and then head for the door. Make sure you\'ve got some change, just in case there\'s cake.
Please stop girding your loins for it is here: the six hundred and seventy ninth edition of Fresh Goods Friday!
Chandler Bing, Halloween, Bonfire Night and Editor\'s Choice arguments. That\'s what this week has been about for us lot here at STW HQ.
