The Practical Pedal

Someone's trying a magazine about Practical Cycling and subscriptions for the first year are free, with the first issue due out this summer. Here's what it says:

The Practical Pedal is a quarterly journal of practical bicycling. What's practical bicycling? It's bicycling for transportation, be it on the daily commute, the run to Costco, or a trip around the world.

Bicycling is good for the environment, good for the body, and good for our cities. We're convinced it was a mistake to relegate the most efficient means of transportation devised by man to the aisles of recreation and sport alone.

The first issue of the Practical Pedal will be out this summer.

The subscription page is here and they have a blog called The Practical Pedal as well. I'm not sure a magazine about Practical Cycling is a way to wealth and fame or even keeping all but the smallest wolves from the door, but I wish them luck and signed up.
