About BikeInSpace
BikeInSpace is an independent magazine and weekly briefing for the people who actually move through cities on two wheels — couriers, commuters, casual riders, the people who built the bike lanes and the people who fight to keep them. We publish quarterly print issues and one short briefing every Tuesday morning.
What we publish
- Long-form stories. Field reports, route logs, interviews with people behind a city's cycling culture.
- Kit reviews. Honest, money-back-if-it's-rubbish reviews — never paid placement, no affiliate-only content.
- The Tuesday briefing. Three stories, one route, one piece of kit, every Tuesday at 06:30 — short enough to read with a coffee, sharp enough to skip if you'd rather just ride.
- Photo essays. One long photo essay per quarterly print issue.
Our editorial standards
- We ride the rides. Route logs and kit reviews are based on actual time in the saddle — usually weeks, sometimes months.
- We pay our contributors. Flat per-piece rates, published transparently. No spec work.
- Sponsored is sponsored. Partner notes and sponsored pieces are clearly labelled. Loaned kit is disclosed in the review.
- No third-party advertising. Supported by paid subscriptions, print sales and a small partner programme.
Who reads BikeInSpace
Commuters, working couriers, weekend riders, frame builders, advocates and a quietly growing number of city planners. We have readers in 22 cities across Europe, the UK, North America and Australia.
The team
The magazine is run by a small editorial team based between Berlin and Lisbon, with contributing writers and photographers in every city we cover. Most of us ride to work; one of us doesn't even own a car.
