Advantages: Extreme, Diverse, Loads of advice

Disadvantages: None

Mountain Biking is a religion. MBUK is its bible (a bible that comes out 13 times a year - I'd like to see God top that...). No seriously though, if you want to know the latest gossip from the biking circuit, check out the latest breakthroughs in biking technology, sound advice on what to buy as well as the witty (and often insane) feature pages, this is where you get your fix. Other bike mags have their main article featuring lycra-clad xc jeyboys, mbuk shows you how the sport is expanding. It features more rider profiles, more product testing and just generally more of everything. Also, it is probably the only bike mag in the UK to have its own (successful) biking team. The motley crew of writers aren't just part time hacks - they are a finely tuned, hard riding, knowledgeable, "blokes next door" kind of team. Basically if you're into bikes, I can see little reason why you wouldn't want to buy this.

OK, by popular demand (that means you, simon, and everyone else who wrote those evil comments) I have been told to stick in some more about the content of this beloved mag. I have, for simplicities sake, decided to add these extra points in bullet form:
* A new issue of the magazine is brought forth every 4 weeks, and therefore the content changes regularly.(natch)
* Letters
News
Sections for each discipline (dirt, xc, trials etc)
Tested stuff (loads of shiny stuff rated - better than any other bike mag, in my humble opinion)
Stuff (Random cool stuff parts of which are bike related and parts of which are non-bike related)
MINT SAUCE (the ultimate in cartoon mountain biking sheep)
The articley bits (change every issue, see above)
Competitions
Grime Time & Grime Time Clinic (All those little niggling mechanical quandries sorted for you)

* If you have any other problems with the above views, please don't hesitate to leave me a com
ment. Thank you, please come again...
