A friend of mine and fellow blogger, Mike Davenport, came to me with a proposition.
“Let’s see whose readers are more involved…mountain bikers or rowers…”
Always liking a challenge, I accepted his proposal!
So What Does This Mean?
Here are the details of the contest and what you stand to gain from participating.
Mountain Biking and Rowing—two great sports. With two involved communities of participants.
But whose participants are more involved?
This month brings a contest between two top-notch websites in these sports to answer this question. Mountain Biking 198 and MaxRigging are having a competition.
The contest is simple. Which site, the biker’s or the rower’s, can get more subscribers to their RSS feeds by the end of the month.
Why?
Because the site authors, Robb Sutton and Mike Davenport, were having a friendly discussion about whose athletes are more involved and this seemed like a great way to settle the argument.
So what is in it for you? How’s this . . .
