Dogecoin Downhill Trail needs your votes! (self.dogecoin)

submitted by Tennysonn

Wow. Such Flow. So Trail.

Hail Shibes. I come to you with a proposition that requires no money from you and no dogecoin - just :30 of your time.

The Summary, TL;DR:

If holiday valley ski resort receives enough votes to win, their mountain bike trail will be named 'the dogecoin downhill trail' and will feature the shibe face as trail markers. (ex: http://imgur.com/MoF2cpr)

Link: http://www.bellhelmets.com/bellbuilt

  • Select holiday valley ski resort trail.
  • Enter e-mail
  • Enter captcha
  • Click confirmation link in email. Don't forget this step!

The Details:

Bell helmets is giving a $33,000 grant to the building of a new trail to 1 of 4 finalists - the winner is determined by vote. The vote requires your email and :30, but you aren't opting in to any e-mail list or anything like that.

Holiday Valley is a ski resort in the premier mountain biking destination of Ellicottville, NY. We are down in votes and the deadline is fast approaching. You are our last hope.

The sponsors of this trail, and the organization who applied for this grant are WNYMBA (Western New York Mountain Biking Association). I have spoken with them and they have agreed to the terms: if you vote and push us to first place, they will name the trail "The Dogecoin Downhill Trail." And trail markers will be none other than the head of the doge.

This is a public trail that is meant to be for all ages and skill levels, so if you make this happen you can come enjoy the trail revel in the glory of the shibe - but at any rate I will surely be taking pictures for you all to see.

It's no nascar, but it's another opportunity to spread the word of the dogecoin across the land - free of charge.

WNYMBA is a great organization that is dedicated to the creation and upkeep of free, public trails (for all purposes, not just mountain biking) in the WNY area. Here is a link to their website:

http://wnymba.org/

I ran this by the mods first and got approval to make this, for any curious.

Thank you Shibes. Wow. Much thanks.

edit: TJ Zydel from WNYMBA will make a video verification around 12:15 est - his lunch break. I will post it here!

edit2: Video is uploading/processing to vimeo as we speak 12:57pm est. I will post it when it's done. You guys rock! We are catching up. But don't stop! Spread the word to those who haven't voted - the voting ends sunday and we expect a push from the other trails. Downhill Doge!

edit3: Wow. such verification. A thank you from TJ and WNYMBA: https://vimeo.com/95423410

edit4 (2:34pm est): keep it up shibes! It looks like the tally isn't updating correctly at the moment but with 1,000+ uprockets we can only imagine we've gained some awesome ground! Vote vote vote through the weekend. Thanks!!

edit5 (8:35pm est): Tj says: "The gap is slowly closing! You guys are a awesome! Keep it up! The goal is in sight!" woo!

edit6 (8:10am est): Wow. Such support. Many thanks! I woke up this morning to redditors uprocketing and voting through the night, which means a lot. The general consensus seemed to be that we are 500 behind. Personally I think the tallies are on a delay and they are just starting to factor in the dogecoiners - because we started at an 800 vote deficit yesterday morning and all day yesterday people were saying we were 800 behind. This post got 5,500 upvotes - so even if only half of the upvoters voted for the trail, we should have a commanding lead unless Richmond launched their own campaign which I doubt. The moral of the story is...KEEP VOTING! You guys are great, you have kept this on the front page of /r/dogecoin. I'm looking forward to some shibe faces guiding me through the trail. Like a miniature buddha. Or like a spirit guide voiced by Johnny Cash

edit7 (11:17am est): Woo! We are only 300 down! It looks like the votes you guys made are really starting to process now. Keep them coming!

edit8 (12:51pm est): Last update is we are within 6 VOTES!!!!! Keep it up! Thats a swing from down 800 to down 6 and I can only assume more tallies are still being processed.

hate to be the devil shibe but one of the comments said

Richmond Regional Ride Center will change the lives of people with physical challenges in our area with the inclusion of the hand cycle trail and training center! We have been working hard to give our disabled veterans the outdoor riding experience and be on the trails with other cyclists! What a great addition to our area!

Hate to take this one opportunity away from them

[–]DOPE_AS_FUCK_COOK 14 ポイント15 ポイント

Yeah im commenting from a post in /r/virginia they have been all over this from the start, it would be much appreciated if the dogecoin community didnt take this away from them. We were up until now, losing by 500 votes.

[–]see__no__evil 44 ポイント45 ポイント

Yeah guys, vote for Richmond, seriously! The RVA community that knows about this Dogecoin push for the NY trail are really disappointed. Why not ask the Richmond trail people if they will include Doge in the trail? We're talking $100,000 for a 2 mile downhill in NY vs 20 miles + ride center + disabled trails in Richmond.

From OP on the NY trail

The sponsors of this trail, and the organization who applied for this grant are WNYMBA (Western New York Mountain Biking Association). I have spoken with them and they have agreed to the terms: if you vote and push us to first place, they will name the trail "The Dogecoin Downhill Trail." And trail markers will be none other than the head of the doge.

and here TJ from their promotions and marketing offers dogecoin name+ logo on maps. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KOvRu8_-KpU

So yeah, votes for advertising. Not a good idea (in terms of getting kicked out for cheating) when Bell is putting up 33k for the winner

Edit: missed youtube link, formatting

[–]see__no__evil 5 ポイント6 ポイント

Awesome that you're involved in the project and seeing these threads! Maybe you can help garnish interest from the Dogecoin community. Basically the NY trail project has agreed to make some Dogecoin-themed updates on their trail, and after that, a ton of votes came in from /r/dogecoin for the NY trail.

[–]tommytweeter 15 ポイント16 ポイント

Dang, that seems like they're just using Doge/shibes to win. I'm all for bringing awareness to doge, but I don't think a 2 mile mountain bike trail would do it.

I live in RVA. There are a TON of mountain bikers and there aren't enough trails. this would refurbish and add A TON of trails. 20 refurbished miles. 30 new miles. The trail in NY is like 2 miles? It just doesn't seem worth it.

[–]ltdubleu 23 ポイント24 ポイント

Yes, please consider RVA! I'm a member of the community and we've been working very hard at this. We are relatively lacking in access and infrastructure compared to the WNY area and this grant would be HUGE to our town. All the finalists were handpicked by Bell, and I'm sure they're all deserving so I'll be happy no matter the outcome. I'm all for spreading the dogecoin word, but I truly think the RVA community is most deserving of the $ (though I know I'm biased...). May the best trail win!

[–]RVARideCenter 16 ポイント17 ポイント

Several years ago a member of our community suffered a mountain bike injury that left him unable to ride a two wheeled bike. Wanting to get back out and ride he came up with the idea to build hand cycle trails at Pocahontas Park. These trails are for everyone in a urban center that gives access to the community to enjoy mountain biking and our beautiful park. I am sure that more trails at a Ski Area are going to fun for the advanced riders that trek on up the that ski area. Richmond Ride Center trails are about access for all riders - including disabled riders. Please vote for Richmond Ride Center.

Thank you so much for bringing this up! There is a very strong bike community in RVA, but we're severely underfunded and there's no way that we could ever make something like this happen on our own. As a Richmond teenager: pleasepleaseplease help!

[–]Neologizer 3 ポイント4 ポイント

Richmond has been working tirelessly for this and really lacks the infrastructure that the New York trails already have. Please don't steal it away from a deserving city in the name of a meme. This contest should be about bike trails, not third-party promotion. That is all.

[–]imaghoul 25 ポイント26 ポイント

I really don't understand what's going on here. If Dogecoin wants to have their meme as a trail marker they should put up the money and sponsor the trail, not try to influence a contest aimed at actual trail users. I'm a Richmond local who has done a reasonable amount of volunteer work on these tails, think we legitimately have the best project out of all of them up for vote and I would think it was unethical for Dogecoin to support us in the way they're supporting New York. Leave this vote to people who care.

    As much as I want this to happen, I live in Richmond and could not vote for anywhere besides the greatest city!

    [–]PawnShop804 11 ポイント12 ポイント

    Yup, same here. This is more like vote manipulation rather than helping a community... There is no reason why NY should get the trail over Richmond. The NY trail would be using $33,000 to make a 2-mile trail. In Richmond, we would be rehabilitating 15 miles of existing mountain bike trail, as well as constructing an additional 20 miles of trail with a new ride center.

    [–]bomanconfused shibe 24 ポイント25 ポイント

    I'm a little ambivalent about this. What if one of the other trails is more deserving. We are just throwing our votes at these people because they are going to name the trail after Dogecoin. I guess someone could make the same argument for Nascar.

    [–]imaghoul 16 ポイント17 ポイント

    Voting in a contest aimed at an acute community is very different from mobilizing to purchase a NASCAR sponsorship. It's awesome in the proper use of the word, that the internet can be used in such a way, but it often pays to take an objective look at what the meddling is causing.

    In this case, Bell is providing a very generous opportunity for a number of communities. Superficially the trail users are the only one of consequence in the contest, but it goes much deeper than that. To really appreciate it you have to understand that almost all of the labor and money invested in any of these trail is user generated. It's all a labor of love. People give up their free time to pick up a shovel, put on fundraisers, and go to meeting to plan the trail systems. All of these things are important parts of the process. A lot more goes into building a trail that you would assume. You have to work with local land management to get permission to build in the first place and then you have to ensure that what you build will not disrupt the ecology of the area. If you're involved with any of the organizations you'll find binders and blueprints looking years ahead to the evolution of these projects. There's a hefty amount of paperwork and lobbying that has to be done, and it's almost always volunteer driven.

    A well planned trail system will have a huge positive community impact. Businesses will benefit from increased tourism; the trails often lead to festivals and other events that will involve the local community at large; the trail itself lends to positive interactions between people as well as good stewardship to nature; and I can think of several charitable groups that provide opportunities to underprivileged and inner city youth to enjoy and experience the joys of the outdoors and mountain biking that exist because people fought for the privilege to build the trails in the first place.

    Involving yourself in a contest such as this in this manner can do nothing but harm to those who have been busting their asses for years to have their organization's projects considered for such an award and for Bell, who will now have to make a decision on the ethics of what is happening and may be discouraged from awarding any trail grants in the future. It puts a blemish on an overwhelmingly positive thing. The locale that can mobilize it's community the best should be the one to receive the grant money, not who can get a bunch of people with no consequence to vote because they think the idea of a trail named after Doge with memes as trail markers is fun.

    If the Dogecoin community actually wants to help, they should put up the capital to sponsor a trail. What they're doing right now is just causing harm.

    [–]tommytweeter 6 ポイント7 ポイント

    Didn't the community basically buy the nascar? Buying something and putting your name on it is a lot different than just voting for something. I may be completely wrong but I didn't think it was just a contest to see who could vote for a nascar design.

    This is just organizing people to vote for someone else to donate the money. Which would be fine, but this trail is only 2 miles, the trail in richmond is refurbishing and creating wow more trails.

      I'm from Richmond Va, and the fact that yall are blindly supporting this with no concern for the other contestants that yall are screwing over frustrates me so much. Richmond deserves this win, and we were winning - legitimately- by a landslide until yall did this. The vast majority of you will never use this trail.

      And what do you stand to win? Naming rights to a trail only a few people will see? This is bad advertising for your cause. Meanwhile, you're pissing off AN ENTIRE CITY.

      Please stop this and fucking think before yall out your name behind something.

          Disclaimer: I am a shibe from Richmond. I have voted for Richmond with all my emails, and some trashmail, but I want to point out an issue that this contest has brought to my attention.

          I think other shibes should be aware that there is some negativity being spread about shibes and dogecoin in general. The fact that someone was garnering support from shibes for the New York trail first, caused some outrage with the Richmonders.

          Not everyone feels that way about us, but apparently we're viewed by most as money-loving children who jump on the back of supporting a cause before we even fully understand it. If anyone has any words of wisdogem to spread to these guys about what shibes and dogecoin is about, then please do. I'd like for the people of my hometown to appreciate dogecoin.

            I for one am going to be using this trail.

            I'm a season pass holder at Holiday Valley and my Venture crew does an annual mountain biking trip on those trails. The trails actually are kinda beat up and they do need maintainence.

            People in the Richmond area have been working hard to win this grant, as you can tell by how many more votes they got together before this recent surge for NY.

            This money was going to be used to expand 20 miles of trails around the city to be used by everyone, including special provisions for disabled bikers. I really don't feel like this is right for people who will never use these parks to be voting at all, but if you insist: Please consider voting for Richmond instead, really much appreciate.

            [–]pillowdogerainbow shibe 7 ポイント8 ポイント

            I will vote for Richmond. I love dogecoin, but I do not think this is right. A trail that barely anyone uses is not good advertising potential and we are taking votes away from those who will actually use the trail.

                  This could be a 2 mile trail in a county with a population of less than 400 in western new york. It wont reach very many people at all. Not huge.

                  The richmond plan however is in a city of 200K and the plan is to refurbish 15-20 miles of trail and build 30 new miles of trail that would connect multiple parks. HUGE! AND IT WILL EFFECT SO MANY MORE PEOPLE!!!!

                  Edit: this isn't big for Dogecoin, this is big for OP who wants a mountain bike course near his house and is using this community to manipulate the votes.

                  Should the link be dark so they cannot track everyone coming in from /r/dogecoin and call the whole thing a farce?

                  can you explain what you mean by a dark link?

                  And I would hope they wouldn't call it a farce - we are thinking outside the box!
