What Are The Rules?

The format is pretty simple. Submit your favorite trail review! Please pay close attention to the rules so you qualify.

• Must be 800 words or more. Most of us can go on for much longer than this about our favorite rides.
• Must include detailed directions to the location of the trail head – We have to let others know how to get there!
• Must rate the difficulty of the trail.
• Must have at least 2 pictures of the trail or riders on the trail (a picture of the trail head would be preferable).
• Contest runs from November 18, 2008 until December 23, 2008 and the winner will be announced on December 27, 2008.
• Contest is open to EVERYBODY…yes…that includes you guys overseas!
• Prize winners will be picked by a panel of judges.

Bonuses – The more pictures, video, descriptions, directions, etc. that you have the better. Really make your trail review stand out from the crowd. Remember this is a contest! You want your trail review to be the best out of the submissions so the more quality you add…the better! GPS overlays, GPS coordinates of the trail head, riding shots, etc. all make the review more attractive.
