Cycling clothing magazine?

derek vivian, September 3, 2012

I am a former racing cyclist now only doing leisure riding. I need a monthly, or so, magazine dedicated to clothing plus other things like accessories. Not bikes as we have plenty to choose from already. Is there sucha mag. out there? If not how can we start one? Perhaps even a monthly newsltter to start!

Most magazines will have bikes on test too. Cycling Plus for eg.

I like the Cycling Plus Magazine! I'm a bit fed up with the Pro Cycling Mag; too many of the same write-up's on people and not enough on racing and events.

Also like Cycling Weekly

I have a sub on Pro Cycling and my father has a sub on Cyling Plus then we swap mags, etc.

He loves all the reviews / tests but I only really enjoy that kind of thinking when looking ot buy something. I like Pro Cycling for the insider bits from riders that contribute regularly and the tests on the pro bikes.

I prefer cycling active. Quite a lot of reviews about kit etc and only a couple of bike reviews. Also some information about routes and sportives etc.

and for that indulgent read, Rouleur is perfect. Cycling Plus is the best of the others I think. Enough kit reviews and round ups on clothing, plus some advice on training etc.

Cannondale CAAD10 and an Orange Brompton M3L

read both cycling plus and cycling active. some of the bikes and clothing they do in c.p. seem well out of budget to most cyclists to me. cycling active seems to be aimed more at the beginer/leisure cyclist
