Got mine today - looks good. I really like the cover; it reminds me of a cartoonist who used to draw detailed gatherings of people, but I can't for the life of me remember his name.

But do I wait three days to read it or wash my hands every time I pick it up (Covid - no other reason)? I suppose I could wear workshop gloves, but that would just be weird.

I guess Agent Picolax would be easy to spot

It's pretty bloody amazing isn't it.

I have just finished loading up a few products into the merch shop.

I know what you are all asking yourself... in a world where we can have electric gears, and all manner of amazing stuff... but why can't we have a jigsaw puzzle with sudocrem cat on it?

That really is quite remarkable.

Missed a trick by not having MrsToast's (IIRC?) rainbow cyclist image on the NHS poster.

Great cover. One for the ages.

Did I miss the Picolax?

And the 'what large German estate car' parked in the drive?

Severe lack of 5000GBP mid-range road bikes, and that Surly doesn't count.

There were 2 actual mountain bikes on there, which does feel unrepresentatively high as a % of the discussion on here.

Love the merchandise. How do the t-shirts size up? Same as older designs?

@duncancallum what’s up with the pdf format? It looks to be working ok for me. If you could screenshot any error message to subs@Singletrackworld.com we can try and figure out what’s going wrong for you.

One complaint😬
After reading the Todmorden and beyond article I've been trying to find the komoot route for it with no joy
Can someone educate me as to where to find it please as it looks interesting.
Cheers

Any clues for the brown pile in the window of the house of the people camping? Could it be Picolax related?

@stwhannah
I've just downloaded the corrected pdf but it seems really dodgy using Acrobat on a Mac.
Chipps' page looks more like a jpeg than a pdf, I'm getting "font unable to be extracted" messages and it wont display and scroll in 2 up continuous mode...

Sergio Aragones, that's who I was thinking of.

Cracking issue as always, but it seems it bit special this time.

The Guilty Pleasures test makes me want to ride oddball bikes and James Vincent's article was definitely a Singletrack article, honest and relatable. Although when it comes to the types of surface a rider flounders on, I think I outrank him 😃

I haven't read all of it yet. It can't be read in one day; what would I read the rest of the next two months? I suppose I could ride my bike...

Top job, folks and chuffing amazing in these bonkers times. Thanks all 😁

Ooh, Sergio Aragones, good call @brakestoomuch - I have a nearly complete set of Groo the Wanderer in a box somewhere... 🙂

Glad everyone's enjoying the mag. Thanks all for your support.

p9 of the pdf is still a bit dodgy. Looks like a screen grab or whatever you make the files in couldn’t find the linked item.
Reading through the rest now on the iPad. Still won’t work on the Mac.
