Dirt Rag is a mountain bike magazine based out of Pittsburgh, PA . The magazine covers many aspects of mountain bike culture. Image DirtRagLogo.jpg thumb Dirt Rag s official logo Unique features Founded in 1989, Dirt Rag is an independently owned mountain bike magazine that enjoys worldwide distribution. The magazine obviously focuses on the mountain bike world, but it also embraces all aspects of bicycle culture. The magazine is known for thorough and honest product reviews, a unique perspective on cycling and original bicycle related literature. Each year, Dirt Rag holds a reader submitted fiction contest. Readers are petitioned to submit an original work of fiction. The best three are selected and published in the magazine and the winners receive prizes usually an expensive bicycle for the winner and parts for the first and second runner ups. In 1991 Dirt Rag began hosting an annual race rally called the Bike Punk Enduro near Pittsburgh each winter. This event is a race, having stages riders can win and an overall winner. However, the focus of the Enduro is also about having fun, for example, trying to wear the most inappropriate clothing for wet winter weather.
