When your subscription runs out do they send you a letter to renew it for another year  im still waiting for MBUK (Although im cancelling that) and WMB for October and yet to recieve any and i have seen the new mags in the shops. |

Not sure mate, dont subscribe to any of them, but i bought wmb yesterday and i read it in about 10mins  I do like the bike mags because i love reading about the new gear, bikes and trails etc etc but at 4 quid a pop i dont think you get much for your money, just a load of adverts really. |

MBUK has got boring a long time ago and WMB is going that especially when they put in kit reviews at hight prices in so im looking at MBR and Singletrack which i find more intresting.

My MBUK subscription carried on once the 12 months were up.
Had no letter or email about it though

It seems like my MBUK subs has carried on too, I will cancel that and sub to singletrack, a little more expensive but its a good read and caters for what I do.

Ive got last months copy here mate I will bring it along for you monday.
The mag caters for my type of riding, I buy MBUK and I have read the 2 pages that interest me in no time, I wont read about hopping off park benches or jumping off cliffs. Oh and Id say 75% of the mag is ads.
Single track has the usual bike tests and some really good articles to read.

I was suposed to renew my subscription for Singletrack but forgot, its a bit different to the other mags and has some quite humourous articles and a bit more quirkyness to it, although going on to the forum there are some oddballs on there. Okay I should fit in quite well there!    |

You can also pick Singletrack up from WHSmith as well.

This is a magazine that targets a certain rider so I guess they are not as big and well off as the likes of MBUK, MBR and WMB who can give away freebies.
Ive bought the last few months and have enjoyed the read.
No harm in picking one up and having a look.
