I notice that articles from issue 160 are now online. 
But I don’t yet have my printed magazine. 

Should it have been delivered by now?

I know they’ve arrived at stw towers, and I would have expected them to be arriving in the post any day now.

Any print subscribers received issue 160 yet? Over a week since the articles have been published on line. Starting to wonder why I've paid a premium for. print subscription all these years

According to Mark they were all mailed out on Friday so should be landing any day now. A mix up at the distribution centre apparently.

Yes I hate discovering the articles via the website. One pleasure of reading any magazine is to discover the articles, like new goods for you.

Hi, yes, we got sent our boxes of mags, but for some reason the subscriber ones didn't go in the post on the day I was expecting. And then I went on holiday and left the website to be filled with (paywalled) magazine articles so Benji didn't implode with over work in my absence, thinking the mags would be landing in the post while I was away. It should be sorted now and print mags will be arriving any day. Also, the web versions aren't available unless you're a subscriber. Sorry about all that!

A very quiet letter box here. Back to work on Monday - it would be good if it landed to have a mellow read over the weekend.

Got mine today. Nice bottle of Singletown ready to accompany it this evening - once I've had a lung full of new magazine smell first obviously.

Arrived 2 days ago, now is my first chance to pick it up. Whilst digesting an epic Easter Sunday roast like a beached whale 🐋

@blokeuptheroad do you have to read it on your driveway?! 
The magazine is a cracking read this month and I particularly like the shade of blue used for the title on the cover, it looks suspiciously like the “new” colour that scientists “discovered” this week. Who got there first, STW or the boffins shining lazers in each other’s eyes?

Seeing as I designed the cover and chose the colour (to match the sky in Ale Di Lullos epic photo) nearly a month ago and sent the mag to print at the end of March, I’m going to claim it as a win for mountain biking! Go us, etc etc  🤣 

stoked you like the issue - we’re all really pleased with it

and if it’s any consolation, my hard copy hasn’t turned up yet either

<-- I was going to ask the same - how long after the print issue goes out does the download appear for digital subscribers, please?

Any idea why international ones take such a long time?

Mine hasn't arrived in France yet.

I subscribe to 3 UK publications:

Economist is published on a Thursday evening and almost always delivered on Saturday (2 days later)

Private Eye is published on a Wednesday. Occasionally delivered on a Saturday (3 days later) but more often Mon/Tues of the following week.

Singletrack always takes ages. Latest one was mailed out on Friday 11 April according to the info from justinbeiber above. 18 days and counting...

Mine arrived in Germany this morning. Maybe the excess of extra public holidays we have here delayed it a few extra days?

 

At least I can now look forward to numb legs again when I'm on the throne 😉
