Here’s your chance to grab a brand new Garmin Edge 500. Being just the weight of a single egg, it won’t require you to cut back on cookies or cupcakes to keep your cycling weight weenie status when you add it to your bike. Of course, if you cycle more because of it, you can then eat more cupcakes. Just sayin’…

A black one would go perfectly with my black Red Bull bike, with black wheels. A blue one would be perfect with my blue club bib & shirt… hmm. And I have red tires.. But I love to cycle under blue skies. The black one would be better fitting with the dark grey clouds I’m seeing now.. Black it is if I’m very lucky.
