If you muddle through the instructions from the ACT Library site, you can get access to 300+ magazines on your computer/tablet. Of those, are some good ones (e.g. National Geographic, Rolling Stone…). There are a few bicycle magazines as well. These may be all of them but I didn't search very hard:
You can read them on the computer, or on your tablet. Maybe even phone.
I know some other Australian libraries have a similar service. But the magazine mix is different in each one.

I am currently reading lance's Every Second Counts courtesy of the ACT library service. I have his first book at home and over the years was hoping to god he was the fairy story. Alas - so crudely disapointed. Anyway, i went onto the ACT library service just to see if they had Tyler Hamilton's book (which they do!) and at last count i was number 21 on the "want to borrow" it list. I guess it's become their new best seller.
But i found Lance's other book and am reading it now. He was still BS'ing about "not putting chemicals in my body after what i had to endure through my cancer treatment blah blah " and denying doping allegations so far and i'm only half way through it. I'm all for reading something for free than having to pay for it.
