Bicycle quartly magazine

I was thinking of getting a sub. to this magazine. I seen there add in bicycle times and thought it might be something to get to read this winter.

The question I have is has anyone ever read or had a sub. this magazine and is it worth the price of $30 for 4 issues. If anyone could let me know what they think of the magazine I would be greatful.

Great magazine with more of a focus on randonneuring (both historic and recent) and randonneuring bicycles. I think it's worth the price.

Whether something is "worth it" is up to the individual. What is worth it to one person may not be to the next. $30 may be a lot of money to one guy and pocket lint to the next guy.

If you like the magazine, buy it. If you don't, then don't buy it. It's that simple.

Bikes: Several, mostly not name brands.

They have sample articles from past issues on the web site. Read a few and see if they interest you:
