The May MBUK
XC on the front cover? You better believe it, from a big review of the Lake District. But there's still all the usual in jumping, freeride, trials and downhill. No Mint Sauce comic strip this month, instead a two-sided Mint Sauce poster. Nice.
The best part of the mag has to be the Red Bull Ride event. Amazing photos, but there just aren't enough. What would be the harm in another 5 pages worth!?!
Still a lot more slick with the new design, its growing on me. The photography seems better too, especially of parts being reviewed.
Still too many ads, but there's lots of good stuff. On my first flick through I didn't think there was much there, but now looking again there is.
There's a pretty cool crash section too, but again I think there could have been more.
Oh, and you get free stickers too.
Things to look out for:
The Red Bull Ride feature - pages 10-17
A very sorry looking Rob Warner - page 26
Big tyre review section - pages 82-90
Section on John Cowan - pages 126-129
