Hi All,
Grace Johnson has just released the second issue of
Bicycle Traveler Magazine. She and her photographer husband/touring partner, Paul Jeurissen, have been traveling the globe for some time now, and are well known in The Netherlands for their photo-essays:

http://bicycletraveler.bicyclingaroundtheworld.nl/ Subscriptions are free for registering, and it is scheduled for thrice-yearly publication/download. I think she's done a fantastic job, and I am inspired by her efforts to solicit articles and coordinate and publish while on the road herself. I haven't seen it mentioned here, so I thought some might find it enjoyable.
For those interested in a bit of background on Grace and Paul, here is their blog:

It will also send you to the equipment lockers, checking your panniers in readiness. Sherpa is loaded and leaned against the fireplace mantle as I write this, straining for the door...
Spring, Sherpa, wait for spring. We have to wait for snow-melt before we can reliably cross the mountain passes to the deserts beyond...
Best,
Dan.
