It’s been emotional… For the staff, contributors, riders and readers Dirt Magazine has meant a lot over its years. It did more than document a scene – it pretty much created one.

But let’s not go down those lines, you can read the history and the farewells in issue #159 – The Last Run. For now here’s some simple visual stimulation to take you on a journey through the early years and right back to modern times. 159 absolutely gobsmacking magazine covers spanning two decades of mountain biking history.

Enjoy.
