Facebook - Go to our FB page - @OregonMTBkids - and 'like' us. Also comment on posts, and share them, or better yet, copy the post and publish a new post on your timeline. That will get more attention and new followers. If you find (or create) cool mountain bike-related posts that would be relevant to our supporters, include this hashtag in the post: #oregonmtbkids Twitter - Follow us - @Oregonmtbkids - and retweet our tweets. Also, if you create a new tweet that would be relevant to our supporters, include our handle (@oregonmtbkids) and/or hashtag (#oregonmtbkids) Instagram - Check out our new account - oregonmtbkids - and tag us on images that would be interesting to our supporters. We Need Content! Since we haven't yet started races and rides, we need stories and events to build interest in Oregon Youth Mountain Biking. Tell us your story! Or your kids! Or tag us when you are at a bike race, or on vacation, or a cool ride, or see local kids riding dirt. Take a photo of a cool trail, a killer view, a family outing, or even your mud-covered face after a good ride. Do you know of a middle or high school student who rides, or wants to race, or has a great story to tell? Or a coach? Or a famous adult mtb rider? Or a bike shop? Or a club? Contact us and we can conduct an interview and take a few photos.
