New (?) bike review-finder at Bicycling mag website

One of my beefs against Bicycling Magazine (I have many...) is that their website makes it so hard to find their content. I just noticed yesterday that they have a new "gear review" finder that makes it much easier to find their archive of bike reviews, by category.

It's at:

www.bicycling.com/gear

Now you can find their reviews by category. For example, they place the ever-popular Specialized Roubaix, that favorite of 50+ riders, in a category they call "plush." You can now easily navigate to this category, and see all 22 bikes that Bicycling Magazine considers to be competitors of the Roubaix, at this link:

Of course, it wouldn't be Bicycling Magazine if there weren't something idiotic as well. For example, in their category of Time Trial/Triathlon bikes, you can find the Novara Safari (an $800 aluminum trekking/expedition bike that weighs about 35 pounds...):

Anyway, for what it's worth, makes shopping easier...
