According to WeFollow.com, a directly of the highest ranked Twitter users in keyword specific categories, I am both the most influential and most followed “bicycle touring” Twitter user.

The most influential ranking comes from a combination of how many followers you have, how many Tweets (or Updates) you have made, and how many of your followers Re-Tweet your content or respond to your posts.

At the moment, I have blown away the competition in regards to the number of overal Updates I have made – an astonishing 2,806. The closest competition comes from the Adventure Cycling Association (which has a staff of 30 and a membership of approximately 40,000) . Currently, they’ve made just 608 Updates. That said, the ACA is close on my heels in regards to how many followers they have… and I need to keep working to ensure they do not overtake me.

Obviously, my goal both now and in the future is to continue growing my presence on Twitter and to remain the most influential and most-followed “bicycle touring” Twitter user.
