While I usually don't make such a big deal about Yet Another issue of a 30 year old magazine coming along the pipe, it is worth mentioning that DR has largely gone back to cover art, returning from a misbegotten ten year experiment with photos. Those photos just never fit the feel of the magazine. While the occasional muddy-but-smiling picture was welcome in the early years, it was always the cover art that set the tone for the contents. The "some random dude riding a gnarly chunk of trail" pics just left me flat.
So, Welcome Back to the Cover Art! You can read up on this upcoming issue at https://dirtragmag.com/articles/213-is-kicking-up-dust
Also, I kind of dig the new "bolt"logo.
