Subject: [CR]Anyone seen Bicycling lately?

Seems Bicycling magazine is at it again, sending out free issues to hype the circulation. About 5 years, they sent me a 6 month trial subscription for about two years until they figured out I wasn't going to pay for it. At that time, I actually thought their content had improved noticeably from that a few years before, just wasn't quite good enough to actually pay for. That time someone had at least persuaded me to agree to a free trial subscription. This past week an issue simply appeared in the mail totally unsolicited, and was followed today by a second issue. I see that their improvement was short lived. The current Bicycling is possibly the worst bike magazine I have ever seen. It seems the editors and staff are all a bunch of self-absorbed, fashion-obsessed, 25 year old wimps. Thank God for the Brits and my subscriptions to Cycle Sport and Cycling Plus. Anyone else been getting this unsolicted junk mail? I need to find a way to tell them to stop killing trees for something that will go directly into the trash.
