CONTEST-
Each month we will host a Ride of the Month contest. Users should post pictures of their Ride.
Month may also have a THEME requirement. You must meet the requirement to enter.
For example, the theme may be "sand." The submitted pictures must include sand. Sand from beach, river, creek, or even your kid’s sandbox.
As long as there is sand in the picture, it counts.

THE PRIZE -
The winner will be given the choice of becoming a Life Time member or the stated prize.
If the prize is a cash reward, a winner can have it sent to their PayPal account, or other agreed upon payment method.
See each month's post for details on the prize.

ENTRY -
Entry is simple, just post your pictures, and you have successfully entered for that month.
How to upload a picture

TIMELINE -
The contest will start around beginning of each month and run for at least two weeks. Once the submission is closed, we will we will narrow the field down to the top few.
Around the last week of each month, community voting will begin. Voting will last till last 4-5 days. See each of the monthly post for timeline deals.


THE WINNER -
A winner is chosen by community voting. Highest vote counts wins.
A tie in voting will go in favor of the member with most post counts only if their counts are greater than 100 apart. Otherwise, a 3-day tie-breaker vote will be issued.

Updated...
Here's what changed.
  • Updated the tie breaker guidelines from 10 to 25. Meaning the house vote will go to the user with the most post ONLY if he/she has a post count window of 25 or more over the other entry. Otherwise a re-vote will occur.
  • Reworded a few things for the cheaters.
  • Other general wording corrections.

Notice: As all moderators are volunteers and have no access to the backend of the site a club vote has been brought up and the ruling agreed upon is to allow moderators to enter and win the ROTM program.
More info see this post - Club VOTE.. Allow Mod's to win ROTM?
