Clock is Ticking for Photo Contest Submissions

Sitting at my computer, researching bicycle routes and reading people's travel journals, I've started living vicariously through each new adventure I discover on this screen. So, recently, as soon as I sit down at my desk in the morning, I eagerly check my email and our Flickr page to see if anyone has submitted any new photos to our 3rd Annual Bicycle Photo Contest.

A photo that can take you from your swivel arm chair to a cycling adventure across the world is hard to beat... and that's what we're looking for.

So, whether you're reliving a trip from years ago, reveling in a just-finished trip from this summer, or reading this from a library real quickly before you head back out on the road, send in your pictures!

The image will also be featured on Adventure Cycling?s website, adventurecycling.org, which is visited by more than a million people annually. The first place winner will also receive a two-year membership in Adventure Cycling and a $100 gift certificate for the Cyclosource store.
