Great article--I love learning about the efforts that go on behind the scenes, so to speak--people who know their stuff and do the unglamorous work. The bit about fixing the brakes was especially interesting.
I do find myself checking all 3 sites regularly as they all tend to have different content. At some point most of the articles, features, and blogs make their way across though it may take a while. It's nice they're putting magazine features up. I'm sure that even UK fans aren't buying every issue so once they're old news, might as well share with the rest of us.
