Your comments ...| From: Simon Kellett (simonk (at) nexgo.de) on 9 March 2007 |
| Looking forward to this one: I am thinking of replacing my aging (steel frame, "V" braked) Kett, and the new Alu Kett looks like a good replacement. I was also hoping to test one at the SPEZI this year. But I like the *looks* of the Challenge ! |

Just beeen looking through new mag in pixel form. URL's on articles and ads work giving it another dimension over printed copies! Issue 25 is another good one. Keeping some reading from the paper copy for bedtime with my malted drink.
Thank you Peter and all at VV for the complimentary subscriptions. |

| how about any info on electric trikes. these are far better at getting the shopping home & for towing trailers. |

Peter;
I just tried out the electronic edition. Works very well, indeed. Looks particularly nice on my 22" moniter. Anything to "put the screws to" the US Postal sevice has my vote! |

| 25th issue, should it have been silver? |

Looking forward to the 'deploy by folder' review. I have one of these bikes and give it the thumps up.

| Koga-Miyata's Worldtraveller should have a center-stand behind the bottom bracket should it would have 3 of them. |
| From: David (ilaid-back@etc) on 20 March 2007 |
Mango Quest in North Wales...! Like it.
Just got hold of the paper copies. Looks excellent Thanks to all. |
| From: Peter Eland (peter@velovision) on 20 March 2007 |
Right, just got the last of the VV25s in the post. All subscriber copies went out Friday or Monday, so people in the UK at least should have them all in the next few days.
Apologies to Bob MacQueen by the way - I deleted your comment (asking if there was a delay with the mag) by accident just now. Hope this answers it :-)
Also just updated this story as the mag's now out. |
| From: Bob MacQueen (b0bmacqueen@ntlworld.com) on 21 March 2007 |
No offence Peter - I was just concerned that it seemed to be taking a long time printing and wondered if there was some problem - better subscribe to the electronic version!
Regards Bob |

| Issue 25 received today - as excellent as ever. |
| From: Geoff B (@home) on 29 March 2007 |
| I wondered why my copy hadn't arrived and then realised I hadn't renewed my subscription. Doh! Many thanks to Peter for turning round my subscription so quickly - got issue 25 this morning. Quest in Wales piece very interesting and well written. |
| From: Gerd Rutkowski (scorpio1@cogeco.ca) on 29 March 2007 |
I don't see any article on "Ruko Cycle" in the
contents. Changed your mind?
Will there be something in the next issue?
Best regards: Gerd |
| From: Peter Eland (peter@velovision) on 29 March 2007 |
| Gerd, you're "an innovative Canadian recumbent" on page 41, thanks for your contribution. I've already sent you paper copies in the post (went out 20 March I think, should arrive any day now if not already) and a complimentary digital subscription via email (12th March). Hope you like it! Any problems, please email me direct. |
