The latest instalment of bicycle magazine Shred is now off at the
printers and should start shipping in around a week.

The real pleasure of producing a bike magazine is never about the
cash you make, the bike bits you scrounge, or the press trips you try
to blag. It’s about meeting people that have made a difference to
the sport that you love. If you are looking for a personality that
has had a massive impact on cycle sport then they don’t come any
bigger than Eddy Merckx – the undisputed king of cycling talks to
Shred Magazine.
