Inspired by the vast landscapes captured by filmmaker Peter Delpeut in his upcoming book, The Long Landscape, we’re sponsoring a contest for reader’s photos from around the world that tell stories of adventure, discovery, camaraderie, and the joy of cycling.

Whether it’s a sunrise over a highway, an off-road bike trail, a bike-packing adventure, a peloton, or the daily urban commute, we want to see the world through your eyes—and the perspective of riding your bike.
