Just got the first issue of Singletrack today. This is the thinking person's XC MTB magazine. As well as loads of pretty pictures, there are huge screeds of interesting text which you are actually meant to read (which makes a change from some MTB titles)

Singletrack mag: what a stonker!

It’s produced on a showstring but you wouldn’t think it. Top quality editorial, pix and printing.

Cliche, but true: it’s a breath of fresh air.

10 000 copies of the first mag have been printed, some of which will be gobbled up at this weekend’s Bike 2001.
