Bikeforums.net is a forum about nothing but bikes. Our community can help you find information about hard-to-find and localized information like bicycle tours, specialties like where in your area to have your recumbent bike serviced, or what are the best bicycle tires and seats for the activities you use your bike for.

What gives?

First set of contest rules stated that the winner would be announced in the August issue.

Thas hasn't happened.

Apparent second set of content rules (eh...?) state that the winner would be announced at bicycling.com/winabike in June.

That was not there in the beginning. And if you go there now, it simply redirects to the submission form.

What's the deal? The contest is started to look like a scam...

hi late.
I appreciate the sentiment, but I'm way more resourceful than to ignore that. So, done that, then some. Got some hi-quality hem/haw. One "I'll get back to you". That was a while ago, though. Guess I could do it again.

That rag sucks anyway.

Dirt Rag and Velo News are the only two bike publications that are not a total **** of our trees.

Can't say I disagree. Velo News is good.
