Already on the full fat subscription so I bought something from the shop instead
It is for me on mobile @Cougar but I'm not really fussed, was just a gag to lighten the tone.
Thank you team_stw.
You inspire me and, more mportantly, my kids to ride.
Happy with my subscription. Really happy.

I know. Point rather was, the team are bug-killing with a vengeance right now so it'd be good to get it on the list and we were specifically asked about this. OS / browser details would be helpful. (It's Safari, isn't it...)
Subscriber here, no intention of cancelling. Will check out the PayPal pool - have been putting money elsewhere too so will keep tabs here.
On a slightly thinking sidewards note, you say post PSAs up... What about a thread just to post a link to something you're buying, before you buy it. Then click it from the thread to buy. It's not really disingenuous, it's using the system, right?
Back on the bus again with a digital sub. Bought a back copy from the shop too. All the best guys in this ever changing situation. Matt
By a bizarre twist of historical fate I actually have 2 subscriptions (don’t ask 🤦♂️) but I’ll not cancel either of them.
Home working is hard enough. If I couldn’t read all the bollox and bickering on the forum life wouldn’t be as good.
I’m not going anywhere. Had a scoot round the shop and coincidentally, realised I didn’t have a bright green T-shirt in my cupboard, so that’s now sorted thanks. Stay strong guys. You’re doing good things and we appreciate the comfort and community of STW now more than ever.
I'm already a lifetime sub so ordered one of those natty camo hoodies instead.
Subscribed as well - look forward to the next shiny magazine.
Mark, I think it's disappointing that a large number of the most prolific posters on both forums are 'members' with no apparent interest in actively - financially - supporting STW.
Look at the multiple coronavirus threads.
I'm sure you know this.
They may buy from the shop - I don't know.
Going further, quite a number of those posters have been 'members' for a long time.
In a world without STW, what would they do? Migrate to Mumsnet or PistonHeads - or think ....shoud have done something to support them?
a large number of the most prolific posters
They aren’t real people, it’s forum AI to stir up a response.
rubber - if I wasn't cynical, I could refer to them as free-loaders.
Haven’t seen the whole thread but I hope ‘Richard ‘ is real...
I’m a long time subscriber and just put a few extra beers in Richards pocket!
Good luck STW
Already a subscriber so ordered gravel book and Mug.
Haven’t seen the whole thread but I hope ‘Richard ‘ is real…
Promise I am. I've had thousands in my PayPal before from when we raised funds for when an STWer lost everything to floods, and he got every penny.
Your scepticism is totally understandable though so happy to answer any questions by here or PM 🙂
I’ve whitelisted in my adblocker but then realised that as a subscriber I don’t get ads anyway. Much as I don’t like ads perhaps having a few ads would help during the difficult times ahead. I’m sure everyone would understand.
As I'm a subscriber already, does whitelisting you on my ad-blocker bring additional benefits to you? I always assumed not as I don't see external ad's
Hi sorry to hear this news.
Subscriber since 2011 no plans to unsubscribe.
The subscription does seem very cheap given what you guys offer perhaps an increase would help.
I will purchased in the shop when I get paid next week (sorry had loads of unexpected outgoings this month)
On another note,have guys ever though about putting all the routes you've ever published into one mag or book as a one off I would be very interested in something like that. Not sure how many routes you have probably enough for a couple of volumes?
Good Luck and Thanks
Andrew
@tthew if you are a subscriber then we show you no ads at all so whitelisting won’t benefit us. You are all good. Thanks for being a subscriber 🙂
if there’s other independent websites you visit that rely on ads then do think of them and use that whitelist if you can.

I don't want to upset any subscribers, especially anyone who has specifically subscribed to get rid of the ads but I was thinking last week, while we ran the Rockshox direct campaign site takeover that it's actually a shame subscribers don't see it as I thought it was gorgeous. Maybe we could make it some kind of option for subscribers to see only those sorts of ads if they want to. Mind you I don't want to put anything else on the plates of our two Devs right now or they might implode 🙂
Mark,
That seems like a great idea.
Subscriber & just bought a small item from the shop. Good luck guys 🤞
Thanks Rocketdog 🙂
Subscribed, turned ads back on. Will try to sneak some purchases if my contract at work gets renewed this week 😉
Seems a small price to pay for this brilliant place and considering the amount of time I've been freeloading on the forums - good luck to you all.
Subscribe already, so I’ve gone and bought the T-shirt. 😎👍🏼 All the best guys.

🤣🤣🤣
You're joking, right? If STW did that there's a certain subset of users who would ring 999 about it. We had a Specialized promo a few of years back where the theme wallpaper was branded for a couple of weeks back (I'm guessing similar to the Rockshox one Mark just mentioned?) and toys weren't just out of the pram but into low Earth orbit.

Some ad blockers break the Classifieds, or at least used to, so there's that.
I cancelled my subscription a few months ago as I wasn’t reading the mag, nor spending much time on the forum. Clearly times have moved on. Happy to subscribe again and will check out the shop when I get a min.
Resubscribed
Finally given me a kick up the butt to get a t-shirt. Could see a mug and coffee as well maybe when back in stock.....
Sitting here reading this in my Singletrack hoodie (it’s really nice btw)which I only bought a few weeks ago, so probably won’t be getting anything from the shop for a more few weeks.
Love the mag and everything attached. Won’t be giving my P up for a good while yet.
Keep your chins up.
Mugs and belt ordered for the girls to give their dad on Fathers day.
Think they may palm the mugs before then.
I’m fat now so it’s a good excuse to buy new clothes. I assume the black riding jersey is slimming?
Sod it I’ve had a mug too. Applepay makes it scarily easy 😂
Thanks for the reply re. subscribers and ad blockers.
if there’s other independent websites you visit that rely on ads then do think of them and use that whitelist if you can.
Er, nope. Just here 😂
Just checked, my next subscription is due in 2 hours. Been here 12 years, mainly lurking, but never ever considered canceling. It's a great place to be.
Mark - I want to buy a full zip hoodie in medium but you're out of stock; will you be
re-stocking or have I missed out?
Done 🙂
Belt mug and jersey ordered keep up the good work.
Ordered some bits from the shop. Any chance you can get more fat person belts in stock too?
Timber bell and bum cream! All essentials items to protect one from the zombies. Coffee? I struggled to find how to order just a bag of coffee? Please give Charlie a nudge. The locusts down here in London have cleaned out the shelves of coffee. This might be a good opportunity for all to sell more to us in the South. Stay safe and keep up the good work.
Just upgraded from digital to print & digital - hope that helps a little. Will check out your merch in a mo!
Bought a belt. In times like these you need properly secured trousers.
Won't unsubscribe - all the best guys.
Thanks Standaman 🙂
We are on Instagram but not snapchat. @singletrackmag
I've opened up all of issue 129 downloads to all registered users to help distract you from the world. I'm working on more 'survival packs' including collections of articles into ebooks today.
I'll be sending out the almost regular newsletter later this evening with Chipps' latest editorial. If you aren't on the mailing list yet then you can tick the box at the bottom of this article..
