Anyone else subscribe? On offer at the moment, is it any good? Oddly my only reservation is weekly is too often.

Dunno if it's the same across the UK but if you have a library card in NI you can access RB digital for free magazines online, has cycling weekly, cyclist, mbuk, runners world, some triathlon stuff, trail, etc

Worth a look

Well, it’s intensely road focused. Affectionately known as “the comic”

I really like it, but weekly is too often for me. Very roadie oriented as well, you really need to be that way inclined, and they stopped doing a couple of the features I enjoyed.

Though they did vote us "Club of the Year" so they do know what they are talking about 😎

I'm more a Cycling Weakly kind of guy, to be honest.

Yeah I really like it but then again I'm pretty much solely a roadie these days and I also do have a vague interest in the domestic road race scene.

I do their Zwift club 10 events on Wednesday evenings and think they're organising a race series on Zwift on Saturday mornings now too.

I read it weekly only because it's on Readly. Normally find something worth reading in it every week.

Thanks - subscribed to Readly.Yes, i have to come out as a road rider too at the moment due to living in a flat and the agony of cleaning a bike after each ride is a bit of a chore.
Should change soon.

I like it. As regards the weekly format, a good chunk of the content is to do with pro racing, so weekly means it is more up to date as regards reports etc rather than monthly.

When I started cycling it was the only source of information and pre-internet I used to read it diligently. I then encountered some of the ‘journalists’ in the alps in 1999 who in all honesty acted like prima-donnas - they couldn’t even ride that well. I know some others who’ve gone on to write for them. I read it occasionally online but struggle to see it’s relevance today
