The Night Train: Post to Win Jansport Packs!

Rusty Sprocket Productions LLC and YourMTB.com are teaming up to host a Grassroots Channel for this year's Night Train 12 hour mountain bike race in Fontana Village Resort, North Carolina, on August 11.

What that means: Competitors, participants and spectators alike will use this site as a homebase from which to share their photos, stories and videos from the race.

As an added bonus, we're giving away prizes to those who post the best stuff! Check it:

BEST PHOTO: Post your pictures from the big day -- the racing, the athletes, the mud, the spandex, the crowd, the exhaustion, the joy, party blackmail-caliber photo ... ANYTHING goes! A couple weeks after the event, the best pic of the bunch will be chosen. Best photo winner shall receive a sweet Jansport Dolomite hydration pack donated by Liberty Bicycles (value: $80).

BEST STORY OR BLOG ENTRY: Word of mouth is no longer going to cut it. It's time to spread the word, the 21st century way (technology rocks!). Post your stories from the race -- from the feat of exhaustion, to the bizarre crash you took, to the experience of your light failing at 9:45 p.m. yet you still made it to the finish line. ... Just post it. And out of those tales, we'll give the best author a Jansport ION hydration pack donated by Liberty Bicycles (value: $55).

HOW TO ENTER: Just post it. And that's it! All pictures, blogs and videos posted to the site will be automatically entered into the contests.
