BIKE MAGAZINE DESKTOPS
So there is no denying that Bike magazine is the best MTB magazine in the world! It was the first magazine to take MTB photographers seriously and has featured some of the most creative writing ever written about riding on two knobbly wheels. And it’s no secret that early Buzz sections were what prompted me to stop shooting photos of skateboarders and take my camera on bike rides. Anyway… For December Bike has posted the Buzz section (their photo gallery) on Bikemag.com for downloading as desktop wallpapers. You can get yours here. I’m rocking a bit of Iceland at the moment.

Gee Atherton was on track to unseat him after an injured Minnaar and Peat (with a flat tyre) both failed, but a crash 30 seconds from the finish ended his hopes of winning his first World Cup round this year. Justin had a blistering run and finished an impressive 4th! READ MORE
