Off the Main Road Magazine: Thank You!
It's been a couple of weeks since Off the Main Road Magazine: the Outback Edition landed in inboxes and letterboxes, and we wanted to take a moment to say thank you.
We spent a long time on this issue. Months of writing, editing, and second-guessing captions at midnight, all building toward a moment we genuinely weren’t sure how people would respond to.
Turns out we didn’t need to worry.
The response since launch day has been better than we hoped for, and it’s meant a lot to hear from so many of you, whether that’s a message, an order, or just someone stopping us on the road to say they’d read it.
Because of that response, we’ve ordered a second print run. A new batch of the Outback Edition is on its way, so if you’ve been meaning to order but haven’t got around to it yet, now’s a great time.
If you’d rather not wait for a printed copy to arrive at your doorstep, the digital edition is available instantly, same 68 pages, same photography, available to read online anytime.
What's inside, if you missed it
Issue #1 is 68 pages covering outback Australia;
Across the Heart of Queensland: A full journey from Charleville to Cloncurry along the old stock routes
Journey: Due North, Tracing the Stuart Highway from Alice Springs up through the Territory
Gulf Country: The Other Outback, A look at one of the least-travelled corners of the country
A Traveller’s Notes spread on the Matilda Way: For anyone planning the drive themselves

Spotlight: Lightning Ridge Everything that makes it one of the strangest, most memorable stops on the map
Side Quest: Boulia, Chasing the Min Min lights
Big Country: Close Up, A new recurring photography feature we’re genuinely excited to share
Plus much, much more!
Every image was shot on the road. Every story comes from somewhere we’ve actually stood.
Thank you again, genuinely, for reading, for ordering, and for following along. We’re already deep into working on Issue #2, and we can’t wait to show you what’s next!
