Ride BMX Twitter Contest

We just passed 900 followers on our Twitter account, so despite my usual apprehension, this whole Twitter gig doesn’t appear to be going anywhere. Actually, it’s been a really easy way to let people know what we’re working on, give up some spot photos, and hyper-post contest results. So it’s time to plug it a bit, break the seal on a 1,000, and give away some goodies at the same time…
The Contest: Over the course of the next two days, I’ll be asking a sequence of questions—probably four total—on our Twitter account. The first person to respond with an “@Reply” on our Twitter account will win a major prize, the second and third will get a lesser, and the rest will have to learn that this Twitter thing moves fast.
The Rules: A single person/account can only win once. You must send a @Reply on Twitter…no e-mails/comments outside of Twitter will be accepted. People I know directly can’t win, sorry duders.
Add us at twitter.com/ridebmx to get things rolling. Contest starts tomorrow, April 15th!
A small sample of what’s up for grabs… A big thanks to all the companies that are somewhat-unknowingly throwing you some goods: animalbikes.com, diamondbackbmx.com, nike6.com, feltbmx.com, albes.com, maxxis.com, pro-tec.net, odysseybmx.com, and theshadowconspiracy.com.
