  • Premier Accounts – The future of publishing?

    It’s a bit of a long one this.. Sorry
    Premier Accounts are our answer to the growing and rather worrying trend in the publishing industry for people to stop buying magazines and newspapers. It’s an odd phenomenon because if you ask people if they prefer a printed mag over an online version in the main they [...]

While I’m in touch with my female side, the thought of Mark spooning sent a cold shiver down my spine. Thankfully, the room [...]

    Just arrived in Basque Country to stay with www.basquemtb.com. It’s me and Sanny here. Last time we both went on a biking trip together we were in Austria and it rained for most of the trip. It’s raining here. Hmmm.

  • Comment on the comments

    Is it me or are the people posting comments on our stories getting increasingly more negative and cynical? 
    SRAM launch their 10 speed groupset and within minutes of Dave posting his report from the launch itself the comments are ‘what’s the point?’, ‘it’s all just marketing bollocks.’, ‘It won’t work’. There’s even someone whining about 7 [...]

  • Chicken Dance Extravaganza

    Having been to Canada a couple of times to do mountain bike stuff with the help of the tourist boards over there, I’ve ended up on the mailing list of the Alberta Tourist Board.

  • nPower just doubled our electricity bill

    nPower have doubled our office electricity bill because we didn’t write a letter to them in September to tell them we were switching suppliers in December, even though at the time we were quite happy with the rate we were paying them and didn’t actually see a need to switch suppliers.

  • Statistics, swearing and those bloody ads again!

    Swearing can be funny, stats are great but not when an insurance company gets hold of them to try and prove that cycling is dangerous and ads are here to stay and you need them as much as we do ultimately… No really!

  • Business as usual

    The forum post frequency is returning to its pre Christmas level now, which is reassuring and I reckon a big indication of a return to normal service is the number of posts involving passioned and often irate posts about tiny, insignificant issues. It feels to me that if we can all get really pissed off [...]
