2r magazine.

[Robert21]

Sorry if this has already been mentioned elsewhere, but I haven't seen mention of it. The Sky fanboys' club that is the Bikeradar Pro Race forum seem to hate it, so it is probably worth a read.

2r is a monthly “magazine” about the hidden side of pro cycling; the untold stories, riders before they were stars, the politics that shape this sport.

Preview

Cycling's endless drama drowns us in sound bites & tweets. For a real understanding, Paul Kimmage digs deeper, as he did in his decade-long pursuit of the Lance story. Read his work very month in 2r, starting with his interview of Greg LeMond (excerpt here). Plus articles by UCI Overlord and Inrng.

Shouldn't this be in the Pro Road Racing forum?

Seems more like an alternative view cycling mag and nothing in it seems to indicate discussion should be restricted to the clinic.

The sexual innuendo would qualify it for the Clinic so here it stays, don't make me quote it!

This alone makes it clinic worthy!

the untold stories... the politics that shape this sport.

But surely this is clinic material?

Its brilliant and certainly clinic material. Lemond admits to taking cocaine with Fignon. Plenty of other good articles regarding dark side of UCI which often kick about the clinic. Well worth subscribing. Kimmage is writing an article for it each month

Anyone catch the recent edition? Frankie and Betsy interview?

Betsy slams Hincape

Frankie was clearly torn between the truth and his allegiance to his mates. His exchange with Kimmage demonstrates to me how difficult it was for these guys to deal with the truth and reality in their profession.

Now I'm afraid to say "Aw, shucks"!

This means I might have to buy into Itunes, and I'm on strike against that.

I'll have to see if I can get the linux equivalent working - tried that once, real pita, and never got it to work. Quit trying, but that was for my wife. This looks great.
