Statistics & Sponsorship
Please note that these figures do not include the web traffic created when viewing all the online Photo Galleries otherwise you'd see an huge increase in hits and page views. My photo galleries are hosted on www.pbase.com/stlbiking simply because of the tremendous bandwidth usage it produces on a monthly basis. Pbase servers are designed to give optimum photo file viewing capability. Pbase is no longer free except for personal use that limits you to a fraction on the photos that I've got posted online. So besides my host server, I'm also paying to use another server at Pbase. Large photo image files really eat up the bandwidth. The last time I checked stlbiking had 111 galleries with 5,628 images uploaded which been viewed 1,302, 930 as of May 28, 2005.

Become a STLBIKING Sponsor
This website doesn't really want to flood every other page with flashing banner ads that drive everyone crazy and creates those disturbing pop-up windows to grab your attention. However, funding is required to keep STLBIKING as banner free as possible.  It cost money for computers, servers, software, scanners, broadband connection and more. My guess is that 15-25 hours per week go into keep this website as current as possible. If I didn't enjoy it I wouldn't do it.

Annual sponsorships fees are $100 which is much less than one small newspaper ad. In return you get the recognition of your peers and most importantly . . . your customers. Email me for more detailed information. It's all pretty simple! Cyclists are a loyal group. Got a special promotion coming around the corner - I can help.
