VéloSkiCaffè was created as a place to be built BY cyclists, skiers, and coffee enthusiasts—FOR cyclists, skiers, and coffee enthusiasts. Our goal is to share credible content that provides valuable takeaways and resources, alongside vibrant imagery for our readers.

Are you a cyclist, skier, independent coffee roaster, or local coffee shop? We’d love to hear from you and collaborate to share your story!

Our intention is to welcome and encourage relevant and compelling guest content to be featured in our Journal and on our social media. Our readers are interested in the realms of cycling, skiing, and coffee. These are the topics we will remain focused on, but for the occasional guest appearance by other remarkable outdoor pursuits or culinary delights that would resonate with our readers.

As a start-up, VéloSkiCaffè cannot provide compensation for guest content, but we do hope you’ll see it as a fun channel to feature your images, insights and ideas, and in turn have additional content to share with your followers, friends, partners, and otherwise as relevant.

Please keep the following themes in mind as a great place to start:

• Road, gravel, or mountain bike athlete profiles, stories, and photography

• Cycling adventures and cycling travel

• Best places for road, gravel, and mountain biking
  

• Alpine, nordic, or backcountry skiing athlete profiles, stories, and photography

• Skiing adventures and ski travel

• Best ski destinations for alpine, nordic, or backcountry skiing
  

• Independent coffee roasters or coffee shop profiles

Please follow these 5 simple steps to submit:

1. Email a two-to-three sentence pitch for the feature to curator@veloskicaffe.com

2. Include a small selection of lower resolution photos (no more than 5). If we select photos to be featured, we may request higher resolution photos to be a minimum of 1500 pixels wide at 150dpi and no larger than 5MB.

3. Include any tags or links you would potentially want to include.

4. Please include the photographer to be credited, along with written permission from the photographer for VéloSkiCaffè to publish the image(s) online.

5. Please proofread your work prior to submission for any spelling, grammar, or punctuation errors.

Depending on your submission, we may ask you to write out additional details, or work in collaboration with us to feature a bigger story (estimated 1,000-2,000 words).

By submitting your pitch, you give VéloSkiCaffè permission to modify and adapt written copy to correct spelling, grammar, and punctuation; and/or to publish your submission in its entirety including all links and tags, and with credit to your name as provided.
