Now Featured on Klunkers: YOU!

Hey—I had (what I hope) is a good idea. And it came from one of your comments. So I figured this weekend was as good a chance as any to test it out.

One of our regular commenters, Mike H, dropped this gem in a recent comment on the post “Help! A Newbie Needs Advice on the Best Klunker!“

This blog/community doesn’t update on the daily, but that’s the beauty of it to me….just chillin’ and hangin’ out when we get a chance *cheers*

I mean, he’s right.

I post a couple times a month—on a good month. I love this site and I love this community more, but you know, this is just a passion project. And I have two kids. And all that other stuff.

(Plus, I actually like to get out and ride on the weekends!)

But YOU. You folks have proven yourselves AMAZING resources and sources of information. From Gordon S. and his years of experience; to the “Reader’s Rides” and more.

So… what do you say? Wanna make this official?

Wanna write for Klunkers?

It’s pretty simple, actually. In the biz, we call it UGC—user generated content. I embed a form (below) and you submit articles.

I’ll clean ’em up (I am not expecting Pulitzer stuff here, just write with passion) and post ’em!

If we get this really rolling, I may bring in some processes to speed things up but let’s start simple.

The form below will help you structure out your post and submit images too.

What should you write about? I dunno. But how about:

• Builds you’re working on
• Bike reviews
• Event recaps
• Photo essays from bike shows or events
• Ride routes
• Op-eds
• And anything else that rings true to KLUNKERS

OH—and one other thing… are you involved in an event? Please scroll down and use our Event Listing submission. I’ll be building an events page as well… shortly.

And before you ask, no I’m not paying any of you. I don’t get paid for this either. You see any ads? 😉

OK. Let’s do this!

• Note: if you fill either of these forms out too quickly, it’ll get flagged as spam. So take your time!

You have some pictures, don’t you? Drop the link to your Google Drive, Dropbox, OneDrive or similar. And please make it open access—I don’t want to have to ask for permission.
