Every Day Adventurers

Congrats to Sam, the only entrant :P, for the Morebadasser Video Contest. But, not to be outdone, Sam entered two videos (thanks, brother!). And while we’re down with moving homes via bike parties and producing less CO2, we found his second video, Xtracycle Cyclocrossing to be oh-so-much-morebadasser! Enjoy and Sam, we’ll be in contact to get you your goodies!

Contest time again, this time with a bit morebadasserness!

We know that Xtracycles help shift people’s perceptions of interdependence, freedom and excitement. We know that they help engage their riders with their locality, improve health and increase smiles (all scientifically founded, at least we’re pretty sure).

But what we don’t hear much of lately is how badasser it makes you feel! With that emptiness in mind, we are calling on those that can emulate the concept of morebadasser in video format to noodle on and create a short (15-30sec) video of why Xtracycles are the kings at badasserness.

What’s in it for you? Other than web notoriety of the badassest kind, we’ll feature the top three winning videos on our home page, the top three contestants will receive a sick Morebadasser baseball cap and we’ll toss in a $50 online store gift certificate!

So, to recap for those lost in the dreams of badasserdom:

• Make a video depicting why you think your Xtracycle has made you morebadasser
• Keep it to 30 seconds or less
• Upload it to vimeo.com (basic accounts are free)
• Email info@xtracycle.com the link to your video, your full name, location and one sentence description of your video (and any other interesting tidbits related to the making of your vid)

Deadline for Entries is April 20th, 2011 get out there and make some badasserness a reality!

Ride On,
The Xtracycle Crew

Peter’s truck had some mechanical hiccups on the way to HQ recently and needed to get it the last mile or so to park it ’til he got it workin’. The Xtra’ crew rolled out with three longtails and managed to lose neither life nor limb in another every day adventure.
