Bicycle Times and Peloton.

I subscribe to Bicycling, but only when I get the year for $11, though I did just agree to get their training guide, preparing for next year's "season." I'll compare it to Dave Scott's training manual ($3-$7 on line) and see if things have changed.

I agree that Bicycle Guide was a lot better, years ago. I liked the counterpoints on bike tests, and the long-term tests with several writers weighing in. I've found some of their older takes on current C&V bikes to be pretty accurate.

Even Bicycle Times and Peloton have the cut and paste descriptions of new bikes you find everywhere. Their other articles tend to overcome that. The Times has a decidedly liberal slant in some areas that have nothing to do with bikes, but I read it, anyway. Peloton is more interesting, to me, and I'm not surprised Grady found it readable.

Does anyone else think iab may be Yehuda Moon?

I'm trying to find WNBR Quarterly.
For the articles, of course.
