    So, what are the best articles or issues of recent years that I should make sure to peruse while I have the chance?

    Some of the earlier editions had some really extensive interviews, 5-6 pages of fairly dense text that went into proper detail on races, events and so on. I'd start at issue 1 and work forwards.

    Robert Millar’s in Issue 13 was a standout for me. But then I did get into cycling through C4 & TdF highlights in ‘84.
    The above may be fact, or fiction, I may be serious, I may be jesting.
    I am not sure. You have no chance.

    Never read it so giving it a go. Looks like issue 52 from 2015 is as far back as it goes at the moment.

    Very interesting thanks for the heads up, I’ve downloaded the app but not had a good look as yet

    Quite a few of the most interesting looking editions (judging a book by its cover!) still have to be purchased. Lots of Boonen related covers to keep Chasey occupied assuming he has sufficient toilet roll.

    It's noticeable he's barely posted in four days. Is it too early to out him as a hoarder?

    You try working and having a 16 month old having tantrums every 20 minutes.

    To be fair, I'd be throwing tantrums as well if my dad was hoarding the loo roll.
