Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

What cycling magazines do you read?

I've been looking around and a few magazines caught my eye- bicycling and peloton. I'll probably get subscriptions to these, but I just wanted to see if y'all liked any other cycling mags enough to vouch for them.

Let's hear it!

Road Bike Action and Bicycling are the ones I read. I need o get subscriptions because I don't like chasing them down.

Keep them coming! Hadn't heard about road bike action until this. Any thoughts on digital peloton- it is SO much cheaper than the hard copy.

Bicycling, RBA, MBA, Pro Cycling, Peloton. The best is Pro Cycling (UK mag), but I also enjoy RBA's focus on bikes and parts more than anything else.

I will not renew Peloton because all that whiskey, beer, cheese, Kafka and other stuff not related to cycling is annoying. They are more about Raphaesque "cycling lifestyle" than cycling sport. Not for me.

Peloton and Paved before paved shut its doors.

Bicycle Quarterly is good if you enjoy a different take on what makes a bicycle perform.

I read whatever magazines that my doctors have on the tables in their waiting rooms. About the only time I'd ever read a cycling magazine.

+1. Too bad about Paved. It was a great magazine.

Peloton is my current favorite.

Also get Bicycling, mainly because it's cheap.
