The Compass Swift Campout photo contest has been a huge success with almost 500 entries! With so many amazing photos, it was impossible to select just 8 finalists, so we finally settled on 10. We selected photos that show different aspects of the contest theme ‘Cyclotouring off the beaten path.’
Now it’s up to you, our readers, to select the winner among the finalists below. We present the images without context so you can enjoy them for their photographic qualities alone. Then please choose your favorite at the bottom of the post.
▲ Photo 1
▲ Photo 2
▲ Photo 3

▲ Photo 7
▲ Photo 8
▲ Photo 9
▲ Photo 10
The winner will receive a $200 gift certificate from Compass Cycles, and all finalists will enjoy a one-year subscription to Bicycle Quarterly.
The polls close on Sunday, July 15, at midnight. Results will be published next week, and all finalists and their stories will be featured in a future issue of Bicycle Quarterly. Also check out the many other great entries in the #swiftcompasscontest.
Do we vote by commenting?
Please vote by choosing your favorite in the poll above. Thank you!
I wish you would include the location for each photo. I want to go ride there!
The photos do make us dream, don’t they? The locations and photographers’ names will be posted with the final results. In addition, we will publish short stories about each photo in a future Bicycle Quarterly.
I don’t see a poll either. Tried in IE and Chrome.
It works with Safari and Google on my computer. I think you need cookies enabled. (This makes it harder to vote multiple times.) The cookie is set to expire in 1 week.

Sorry to the readers who couldn’t see a poll. I changed the settings as much as possible. Please try again.
