Just finished my C+ subscription - nothing at all interesting in the copy that arrived today and the 55 page bike listing at the back makes it look like Top Gear. The last few copies have been a waste of paper for me.

I've told myfavouritemagazines to completely close the account and not to send any more renewal requests.

Just flicked through it and though exactly the same. Looks like I will be ending my subscription also. Will be giving Cycling Active a go.

Did you get your one with the duplicates / missing pages sorted, Ian?

 

[ianrauk]

Yes mate, just went to Smiths and got it swapped over. Didn't even ask to see the receipt

 

[Norm]

Cool. I'll bin mine then.

 

[ianrauk]

Hi
Anyone know what Free Gifts the Cycling Active and Cycling + are offering for subscriptions this month ?

 

[Grizzly]

Cycling Active appears to be giving a 30% discount on the subscription.

I prefer Cycling Active because, although I don't consider myself a 'newbie' as far as riding bikes go, I do consider myself a newly 'serious' rider. There are loads of things I have learned from CA (as well as these forums, natch ) that I just don't get from Cycling+. That said I do buy the latter on occasion if something on the cover catches my eye (although in last months issue there was an article that was well below what I expected from what was advertised on the front)
CA seems to be a bit more of a broad church too as they are starting to include MTBs which I think is a good thing especially these bikes can be turned into something else (such as a commuter) with a simple change of tyres. A little bit of variety is nice.

CA has gone a bit down the oo £2k + bike road lately and the Expensive Kit route so I'll subscribe for a gift !

Picked up the latest issue of Cycling Active. Am impressed except for my copy had 20 odd duplicated pages meaning some sections were not included. Will buy next months to see how it goes.

When in the month does Cycling Active come out as every time i go looking they have none left

 

[TheBoyBilly]

CA seems to come out around the 8th-10th of the month. A biggish WHSmiths should have plenty.
