Email a news tip or press release to BRAIN
You could email us a note, a formal press release, event information for our calendar, or product information for our New Product section. Please use the same link if you want to send us a guest editorial or query us about a freelance idea.
This is not automated. We assess press releases based on newsworthiness and value to our readership.
While we try not to be fussy, please include the following information for all submissions:
- News release: Who, what, where, when, why and how.
- New Product submission: separate jpg or other image files, without text overlays. Basic product information including MSRP and distribution information in a text or Word file or in the body of the email.
- An event for our calendar:
- Title of event
- a description of the event
- dates and hours
- specific location (name and address of the venue)
- contact information — for someone who would like to attend or exhibit at your event, such as email or phone
- URL
- contact information — for a BRAIN editor who has questions about your submission.
What about embargoes? We'll generally honor them if we are asked first (and if we aren't already pursuing the story). The usual rules apply - if the news comes out on another news source or in public documents before the embargo date and time, we will reserve the right to match it. Also know that by agreeing to honor an embargo we are not agreeing to publishing something on your preferred schedule. We are just agreeing to not post it before your preferred schedule.
There is contact information, including email and direct phone numbers, for our staff at bicycleretailer.com/staff-directory.
Advertising information, including downloadable media kits, is at bicycleretailer.com/advertising-bicycle-retailer-industry-news.
Subscription information for our print and/or electronic edition is at bicycleretailer.com/subscribe.
You can also use the form below. The advantage to the form is it can be anonymous, in case you have something hush-hush you want to share.
And as always, feel free to reach out directly to editor Steve Frothingham at sfrothingham@outsideinc.com or 720-251-6899.
