SlowTwitch therefore inaugurates its own "Anti Competition". It works like this: Every month SlowTwitch will profile a reader's multisport adventure. By "multisport" we mean something that involves more than one means of human powered locomotion to get from A to B. Or, one means of locomotion that is, in its own unique way, a hybrid of two sports. At the end of the contest (one year, or earlier if we get antsy) we will reward the best of the lot. We aren't quite sure how, yet, but we'll let you know in the by and by.

Below are some examples from my own adventures (misadventures, according to some of those who've had the fortune to accompany me). This is to give you a jumping-off point. I'm sure y'all can think of better ones than mine. Your submission should be something you 've done in the last three years or, hopefully, something that you will do during the upcoming year. By all means please let me know, as well, about adventures that you're planning or dreaming about. Finally, a photographic record is highly desirable.

Stay tuned for the prize list for the SlowTwitch Anti Competition, and for upcoming submissions from your friends and peers. Samples to stir your imagination:

• Slowman's trip up the mountain.
• Our esteemed copy-editor's Noflower.
• Monty's Leap of faith
• Rick Murray's Alternative Half-IM
