Pat Jenners Ridge PictureBike Magazine Best of Nominations......

If you had a great summer riding- please let Bike Magazine know about it!  Nominations are currently being taken for the categories below. 
The winning trails will be featured in Bike's annual Trail Guide, which hits newsstands this March. Even better, readers have a chance to win lots of incredible prizes. Readers can nominate as many trails as they like, in as many categories as they want. Trails can also be nominated in different categories, if applicable. Nominations should include a brief 200- to 300-word description of the trail and why it deserves recognition. They also encourage nominations to include photos, videos, GPS data and anything else that shows why that particular trail rocks. Hell, draw on a napkin if you have to. The more creative, informative and fitting the nomination is, the better chance it has of winning.
All nominations should be e-mailed to btrails@bikemag.com by October 7. And check back to bikemag.com for more updates on the process, prizes and a list of current nominations.
