Hidden Gems


We all love riding our bikes, but sometimes it’s difficult to know where to ride them; to a local landmark, a breathtaking viewpoint, a cracking café?

There are so many great biking destinations we all know about, but there are even more hidden gems we don’t. So at so Infinity we want you to get riding, get snapping and get sharing to help inspire everyone to get out and enjoy riding more.
To get involved all you have to do is ride to your favourite destination, take a picture of your bike there (with or without you), and upload it to our Facebook page. Tell the world where your destination is and why you think it’s worth riding there.  Here's an example from our mate Dan;


“This is my 2009 Royal Enfield Classic pictured outside Goodwood, but this picture could almost be taken 50 years earlier!  Plenty of great roads around the nearby South Downs and you're close to the Channel coast too.”
Now, this isn't a competition, but if a picture catches our eye, or if it gets lots of 'Likes' on Facebook, you might be the lucky recipient of a Bag+ 25-litre rucksack worth £39.99.

The details:

ñ  How far do I have to go?
As far as you like. You’re destination can be anywhere in the World; wherever you’re comfortable riding to. We’re not looking for heroics, just something different, inspiring and interesting.
ñ  What kind of locations are you looking for?
It can be anywhere really, as long as you can tell us why you think it’s a Great Biking Destination. Tell us about somewhere we’ve never heard of before, a hidden gem  worth going the extra few miles for… Make us laugh, make us cry, make us envious about where you’ve been. But above all else, inspire everyone to get on their bike and ride there too.
ñ  What are you definitely not looking for?
We won’t be impressed with: granny’s garden, bike in your driveway, outside a motorcycle dealer (even if it's an  Infinity store).
ñ  Do I have to be a good photographer?
Not at all, as long as your shot is clear enough to give us a good impression of your destination, that’ll do the job nicely. We’re interested in the quality of the subject, not the picture.
