I read "JP Magazine" which is all about Jeeps front to back about five times before passing it on to friends. I also read Popular Science, Consumer Reports, and Mac World.

What bicycle magazines? Used to subscribe to Bicycling. But became to much Rodie and to little commuter. Now I subscribe to "Velovision" and "A to B". Lots of commuter info and little rodie info.

Velovision www.velovision.com

A to B www.atob.org.uk


Both are available in download format. www.exacteditions.com

Actually I find that reading rots the mind...

I take no subscriptions anymore, last one I had (MAKE) I could never find the time to read. I guess the damnable internets have stolen me away from paper, but I handle that day in and day out at work so maybe it works out in the end?
