MEDIA KIT 2017-2018 1
The Magazine 6 issues per year PRINT 22,000 READERSHIP 80,000 Bike Australia blends road cycling, road racing, cyclocross, adventure riding and mountain biking like no other title in the Australian market. Now moving to Next Media, the home for niche sporting publications, the opportunities for growth are near limitless. Bike Australia combines the best stories and how-to features from Rodale Press, combined with locally produced features, bike and product tests, destination visits and expert opinions. Cycling is a growing sport that will continue to evolve. As road cycling diversifies from its roots as a racing sport, to one that is a recreational past time, so too the rest of the sport grows and changes. Bikes are now seen as much as a tool either for elite sport, fitness, recreation, adventure and even a pathway out of adversity. Bike Australia aims to capture the breadth of the growing sport, encompassing all the elements that make cycling a great sport, and creating a unique magazine with direct relevance to an Australian audience. Published 6 times a year, Bike Australia is more frequent than other cycling titles available in Australia, meaning we can deliver exceptionally produced content and news from events, product launches and experiences with the professionalism seen in Bike Australia s sister title, Australian Mountain Bike magazine. Bike Australia is positioned to be part of the continued growth in cycling in Australia covering everything from the Grand Tours in Europe to micro adventures in our own backyard
