Join Vital MX: You Can Win a New Pair of Etnies Cinch Shoes or Other Cool Prizes

Since the launch of VitalMX.com we've had tons of moto fanatics from around the world become part of the Vital MX crew, and it's easy to see why. With your free membership you can:

• Create a profile, connect with other site members, send messages and comments to your friends.


• Upload photos of your bike, all its components and your riding gear in the Setup Check.


• Create groups and invite your friends.


• Upload photos and videos….and not get lost in the crowd like at other popular photo and video upload sites.


• Rate and review products in the Vital MX Product Guide. Why should a handful of magazine editors have all the fun when it comes to rating and reviewing products?


• Post in the Vital MX message boards.

You can also search or browse through members using the Community Member Search.



Best of all the price is…well, there isn't any. It's free! Like as in freakin' free. Completely and totally free. That's our favorite price. And as added incentive to join this week, we'll draw a name from the new site members who join between Thanksgiving Day (November 23rd here in the U.S.), and November 30th, and the winner will score a cool pair of Etnies Cinch shoes. Just click the Join Now button in the upper right corner of the page.

We've also got some other prizes (like a batch of the new Vital MX t-shirts) that we'll be tossing in as well. Already a member? Don't forget to encourage your friends to sign up. And don't worry, we've got some other contests (and some very cool prizes) coming soon for you guys.

Here are some examples of cool profiles (and a mini-tour of features) from among the current Vital MX members.

MX Tech has some really cool blog entries with tips that any rider can take advantage of. Got a story you want to tell? The blog area is a great place to unleash it.



We encourage companies, teams, and individual riders to sign up. Below you can see examples from Universal, Girlyz, and a certain Yamaha of Troy team rider. It's a cool way to stay in touch with consumers, friends and fans…all without irritating those bulletins and porn spam you might find on other community sites. It's also interesting to browse through the member profiles. You never know who you might run across.







You can add logos from your favorite companies on your profile. AZ450Rider took it a step further, and created these cool-looking buttons.



Mumbles used the photo section of his profile to show off some photos from Tom White's vintage bike collection.
