You realize how ****ty magazine MBUK really is after you have read Dirt mag.
haha i do hear its pretty sick, not read it though, what's best about it bro?
Seconded
p.s.
Sophsoph, check this out if you're amped for a great free mag!
IMB Magazine: http://www.imbikemag.com/issue5
Been reading it since like.. issue 3 maybe? Really like it once I got used to it being digital. Has good features too and some gear coverage that's helpful etc etc
Best bit = embedded videos! check out page 31 (i think) for an example.

MBUK is more like a free broshure than a real mag. It looks nice but its a very armchair magazine imo. Dirt rocks. Ive been a subscriber for 2 years now and when it ends I plan to go into the 3rd year. Only mag I like thats written in understandable language (I understand 50% german but its a PITA to read).
Ive also heard that decline is nice though Ive never tried.
btw. as for free online mags - wideopenmag is hard to beat.

decline, but i dont have dirt
dirt is probably the best you can get, but I stopped reading mags and just read stuff on the tubez now instead. cheaper and you get the same BS, just consolidated.
sorry dude! i don't do it to hurt people. Maybe if we had a decent magazine in the US it wouldn't be so bad. I'm not paying 8$ an issue for dirt and I don't want to buy decline which is 90% photos and dirt jumping. The other option is MBA and that's terrible. I'd get better advice at walmart.
Hell, I must be the worst person in the world in your eyes, I buy most of my stuff used, too! I can't afford diddly at MSRP.

by no means i was calling you out at all so dont take it like i did. Im just saying we still need to buy some mags and subscribe once in a while ya know?
Some people just like to read and the forums are hardly a good read.
Well said norbar, plus you get awesome pictures and articles about things you've not heard of before!
dirt FTMFW! best mag, no doubt.
Having read it over the weekend at a mate's i'd have to agree!!
But as i said earlier in the post i'm a big fan of..
IMB Magazine
it has quite a small team i think and you can get a lot of interaction going on their site comments and facebook etc which i personally quite like!
for that reason and its lack of cost is why its usually my number one choice. Looks like Dirt is going to be my new favourite monthly print mag thou!
I've been lambasted on here before for saying it but Decline never has much to offer by way of content and this coming from someone stoked on all things 'merica, but Dirt simply blows any other mag away. I used to buy Decline and Dirt pretty regularly (I always bought them rather than purchasing them as I like to pick and choose which ones I want and the post man always seems to mangle them) but now I only buy Dirt as others have said everything else is pretty much available online anyhow.
Dirt has an iPhone app and I get the full Dirt mag on my phone. The reader is pretty slick. But Dirt all the way. I gave up on US based mags long ago.
