At anyrate, back to my self discovery.
I used to ride mountain bikes, and I loved the sport. I REALLY liked a particular magazine, it stood above all others in it's genre. It's called 'bike'
I hadnt read 'bike' in many years because my interests went elswhere, but I bought February's edition because there is a photo shoot there that will blow your mind. It's worth buying just for that.
After I got done with the photo shoot I started reading a couple articles and was immediately taken.
I pulled out my Dirtwheels issue and read through a few articles for comparison, and there it was... the difference.
Dirtwheels is like listening to 2 or 3 8th graders talk about bikes. There's 'some' data, but it's so thinly put together that it could harldy be called interesting.
Plain and simple, it's just a boring read. Homogonized, no edge, banal???
and most importantly:
NO PASSION!
