Recommendo: XXC Mag Issue #7

If you haven't heard about the XXC Mag you might be missing out on one of the best magazines you've read for endurance/adventure type cycling. It is available as a digital download for all you "cutting edge" device freaks, or you can go luddite and invest in your very own printed copy. Either way, it's a great read every time a new issue comes out.

Especially recommended is the latest issue, #7, in which you'll find the piece written by Corey "Cornbread" Godfrey on his experience at this past April's Trans Iowa. (Image of the lead pic in the article seen here courtesy of XXC Mag/Corey Godfrey) Tons of great imagery accompany this well written piece. Check it out!

You will also find a great article about the Barry-Roubaix, which had over 700 participants this past March in isuue #7, so even more gravel goodness for your reading pleasure can be found here. All that plus some excellent coverage of other endurance races, training stories, and even a healthy recipe to get your diet on the right track!

XXC is a grassroots, passion filled effort that deserves a look. I recommend it highly.
