Bicycling is really not a bad magazine for beginning cyclists. If it
helps to motivate your husband, then good for you.

The OP, though, I think had a UK email address. There might be better
British magazines for her to consider.

Thanks, Claire. I don't know of anything similar in the UK. The only
UK publications I see in the bookstores here in the southwestern US are
a couple of mountain bike enthusiast and pro cycling mags. I've bought
them from time to time and they are interesting to me, but probably
would be way over the head of a beginner.

There's always the CTC. (Or has it jumped the shark like another
organization I could name?)

I hate to ask, but exactly what does "jumped the shark" mean in this
context??

Email address works as is.

I ditto too, - what's "jumped the shark" mean? Such a curious saying.
I can vaguely guess its meaning from the context, but then, I'd probably
guess incorrectly.

"Jump the shark"

It's reference to Fonzi's shark jumping stunt in an
episode of "Happy Days", and has entered the pop culture
lexicon to describe the moment when something begins to
decline.

So... the link could be a pointer to a page about LAB jumping shark,
or the link itself implies that LABreform jumped the shark.

More importantly, due to the confusion, this thread has jumped the
shark.
