Title: Uk bike magazines finally available on the ipad Post by: thought on December 31, 2012, 10:53:15 AM Not sure of you guys despise the us bike magazines as much as I do but the uk magazines are pretty much the best I've found... And they are finally available digitally and pretty cheap.
So far bike, ride, and mcn sport are on the ipad newsstand and it looks to be about 99 cents for the non current issue. Totally worth it IMO. Title: Re: Uk bike magazines finally available on the ipad Post by: Slide Panda on December 31, 2012, 11:06:59 AM Nice!
Thanks for that news Title: Re: Uk bike magazines finally available on the ipad Post by: StephenC on January 01, 2013, 03:27:17 AM Bike is great but I'm not so happy with RiDE. There are a few interactive features but the whole magazine is formatted just like the print version so you spend the whole time zooming in and out. Bike have made each article fill an entire page and the scrolling is heaps better. Personally I prefer the content of Bike as well.

Is what's his name still circumnavigating the globe, or is his ass rotting in a SE Asian prison? Thanks got the tip. Picked up my (X-Mas present) iPad today. I'll check it out. Always loved Bike but I had to kick the habit when B$N in Las Vegas started charging $8.95/issue for them.

Ps the IT magazines from UK are also far superior.

I'm a big fan of Bike and actually think it is better on the iPad than in print.
