Advantages: local news, good read, good adverts for bike shops

Disadvantages: getting a little pricey

Cycling Weekly (The Comic ) as it is known in the Cycling World is an excellent read.
I have been buying this magazine for years now and never miss an issue.
It costs £1.75 and like it's name comes out every week.
I usually send my wife out to buy it on a Thursday from WHS.
The magazine covers British and Foreign Cycling.
You have the regular sections : Write to reply, you can voice your comments about cycling issues, Racing usually local events.
Time Trials , all the latest gossip, Local news and Final Word , this is always an interview with a cyclist.

There are features on cycling clothing, bike parts, bikes tested etc.
There are many adverts on where to buy products . Also there are personnal adverts, where the public can sell their unwanted bikes, spare parts etc. I have have had some good buys from these people.
You can even place an advert, requesting items for your bike, usually you get a good response.


I like the fact that there are adverts for good bike shops, I do most of my shopping at Ribble Cycles, every week they put an advert in with some great offers. Another one is Parker International, they do a great mail order service.

At the moment the Tour de France is on, it is featured in the cycling Weekly and there is a special issue out just featuring that spectacular race.
It costs £2.95.
Every week I look forward to receiving the magazine and I think it's the best Cycling mag around.
