FreeWheeling Magazine Sample Issue

LAUNCH ISSUE FREEWHEELING 1

2 FREEWHEELING LAUNCH ISSUE


“Hello and welcome to the first issue of what I hope will

become one of the most essential and popular cycling

magazines in the UK.

FreeWheeling is a real ‘first’ - the first free cycling

magazine available through your local cycle retailer. That’s

where you’ll find the best advice, choice of bikes, cycle

clothing and accessories, not to mention puncture and other

repairs!

Whether you’re an occasional leisure rider, regular cycling

commuter, family cyclist, off-roader or dedicated enthusiast

preparing for the Etape du Tour or Dragon Ride you’ll find

plenty to interest you inside FreeWheeling.

And we haven’t forgotten kids - we love to see children

and young people out riding their bikes, so we’ll be featuring

plenty of product reviews and articles covering kid’s bikes,

helmets and clothing, safe riding on and off road and lots

more.

At FreeWheeling we’re all completely nuts about cycling

and everything that goes with it: the bikes, the gear, the

sun, wind and rain too. We even love the pain of slogging up

steep hills and 100+ mile rides!

So enjoy this issue of FreeWheeling and ride on!”

READER BIKE TEST:

Trek Madone 4.5c£1600

REVIEWER: JAMES GLOVER

CYCLING CV: Over 20 years in the saddle. Long distance road specialist. Regularly competes across Europe.

CURRENT RIDE: GIANT TCRAliquam fringilla, nulla a porttitor blandit, purus justo cursus nisi, vitae commodo diam sapien tempus eros.


Trek’s Madone road bikes have long been the choice of top Tour de France pros like Lance Armstrong and Alberto Contador. We asked FreeWheeling reader James Glover to take the mid-range, carbon-framed Madone 4.5c for a good thrashing over his local Yorkshire roads and compare it to his own well-proven Giant TCR.

James is a veteran of the Etape du Tour 2007 (the really tough Pyreneean one), a London to Paris charity ride, two Dragon Rides and numerous other sportives, so he knows when a bike is up to the task of a fast, all-day ride over varying road surfaces. How does this fancy looking Trek Madone compare to his existing bike, a carbon framed Giant TCR, that has served him exceptionally well over many tough miles?

EASY DOES IT:COMMUTING BY TRAIN AND BIKE

GROUP TEST: FOLDING BIKES

Getting to work by train and bike: Joy and Rob Brown put the ‘train and bike is best’ theory to the test on a variety of folding commuter bikes.

Vivamus sed arcu. Praesent sed risus at dolor dignissim bibendum. Aliquam tincidunt laoreet enim. Etiam eget justo ac magna tincidunt convallis.


Using a train and bike combination is something more and more of us are considering

as the recession bites and household budgets are stretched ever thinner. FreeWheeling

readers and keen cyclists Joy Nazarri and Rob Brown have recently moved from London’s

Clapham to the wild’s of Kent. They still work in London though, so we asked them to

give the train and bike combination a go.

Here’s what Joy says about her

experience: “Moving from Clapham to

Kent was a really big deal for us, not

least because our commute changed

from 30 minutes to 90 minutes for

Rob and from 40 minutes to 70

minutes for me. So when FreeWheeling

editor Jeremy Nelson-Smith asked

us to try using the train and folding

bike combination we jumped at the

chance...”
