Something about A to B:
'A to B' magazine started life as 'The Folder', the newsletter of the Folding Society in August 1993. Specialising in news and reviews of folding and separable bikes, the magazine went from strength to strength.

In August 1997, with 1,200 subscribers worldwide, we decided to float the magazine on its own. The new magazine had a new title 'A to B' and a new brief - to explore new ways of travelling from point A to point B. Naturally, as the most efficient transport integrator, the folding bicycle continues to feature strongly in the magazine, but we also cover electric bikes, bike trailers and public transport. More than 2,500 magazines are sold by subscription every two months, giving an estimated readership of 4,000 worldwide. Subscribers include public utilities, train operating companies and bike manufacturers and distributors.
