Kona bikes is sponsoring their third annual Shoot The Ride Photo contest. Here is what they have to say about it.

“The rules are simple. Send us your absolute best.
Tell a story, capture an epic moment, be creative, and make sure it has something to do with bikes and bike culture. We’re not totally particular if you’re Kona specific or not. That’s how cool we are. These contests are all about sharing the essence of what it means to ride a bike…any bike.
Damn straight. “

First Prize gets a $500 credit to the Kona store, while 2nd receives $150 and third $50. I have had the pleasure of riding a Kona Zing Deluxe road bike for the last couple of month, and can confidently tell you that Kona makes good stuff. I have been having a blast grinding out the miles on this sleek aluminum framed street machine. So if you are a 2-wheel enthusiast, and want some gear get that camera out there and shoot a cool pic.
