Nicola Rutzou
The March/April edition of Bicycling Australia magazine has just been delivered from the printer. It’s the 252nd edition of Australia’s premium road cycling publication and is brimming over with engaging content.
Highlights include:
Spring Classics
A guide to the Spring Classics races that are held in March and April in northern Europe each year. What makes them so special? Which Aussies might be in contention? Plus, a guide to the key races.
Riding Japan’s Shimanami Kaido
Japan’s Shimanami Kaido area is a great place to ride a bike. Tina McCarthy shares her love for the area and all things Japanese.
The quirky world of Keirin riding in Japan
Peter Maniaty uncovers some of the secrets surrounding the sport of Keirin racing in Japan. While it’s popular with the punters, it’s considered a little grubby.
Mudgee Gravel
Mudgee is an awesome place to try gravel riding, and editor Nicola Rutzou spent a few days enjoying some off-road action, tracing the Dirty Mudgee route (part of the Mudgee Classic in May each year).
We road-test the Orbea Terra gravel bike, Bossi titanium road bike and the Zwift Ride indoor bike. Plus, we run Campag’s Electronic groupset through its paces, as well as the Wahoo ELEMNT Ace, HoverAir drone and more.
Also, inside, are Top Gear, The Big Picture, Bang Bang with Lee Turner, Spin Cycle with Anthony Tan, and more!
