Good perspectives are the order of the day in the May issue of Ride with tours in Valais, the Savoy and the Upper Engadine. Supplemented with an extraordinary trip to Albania, a report on the different philosophies of trail builders and an analysis of why the most important manufacturers of e-bike motors are based in southern Germany and Switzerland.

April marks the start of the season for many mountain bikers. That's why Ride's spring issue focuses on two tours that are already offering plenty of trail fun: the Olten circuit and the route through the southern slopes near Crans-Montana. There is also a report from the bike park in La Grave and a story about what is probably the most unusual bike hotel: the Canvas in Norway.

Mountain biking often also means discovering the world. That's why Ride comes out with a travel issue every February to whet the appetite for the next mountain bike season. There's also a new look and feel: the print magazine now goes through the presses on high-quality matt paper and has a wider page format.
 

Far-sightedness is the order of the day in the June issue of Ride. For example on the Carnic High Trail. There is hardly a route with such a phenomenal view of the Sesto Dolomites. There are also great views on the Col d'Anzana, the legendary crossing from Poschiavo to Valtellina. And finally, there is the Ziteil Chapel in Graubünden, where you are closer to heaven than almost anywhere else.

The May issue of Ride arrived hot off the press today. The magazine is all about season planning. These include the Bocchetta di Forcola on the Umbrail Pass, the Punta Leysser near Aosta, the Etzel on Lake Zurich and the road trip to Åre in Sweden.

Just published: the April issue of Ride. It's the traditional start to the season with plenty of anticipation for the summer's trail menu. Including: Tête de Balme (Valais), Niesen (Thun) and Fuorcla Valletta (Upper Engadine).

Ride is stepping up a gear and increasing the number of issues per year to a total of six. This additional issue has just been published. Packaged as a travel special, it arouses anticipation for the next mountain bike season and marks the start of Ride's tourism offensive.

Mountain biking is all about adventure and discovering new things. Ride is therefore placing a stronger focus on the travel sector and is launching its sixth print issue at the beginning of February. The magazine will be published as a "Travel Special" and brings a concentrated load of inspiration for the upcoming mountain bike season.
