I’m sure many of you received various sports gadgets over the last few weeks as part of the holidays. But for those unlucky elves who received only a half-eaten gel packet in their Christmas stocking from their not-so-significant others, I’ve got a festivus of a present for you: This giveaway.
The winner will get a $500 credit to CleverTraining.com, my most excellent partner in this giveaway crime. By supporting the site through Clever Training you also can save 10% on basically anything they sell (or get points instead). If you win, you can use that credit for anything from the GoPro Hero5 Black to a Garmin Vivoactive HR to a random pair of socks to the PowerTap C1 power meter, or heck, even towards a new trainer. Whatever floats your boat (note: they don’t sell boats).
How to enter:
Simply leave a short description of what product you’d get and why (but don’t worry, you can change your mind later if you win).
The reason you need a short description of ‘why’ is that if you just put a simple product name (i.e. F3), you’ll likely get caught up in my SPAM filters. And nobody wants to be sandwiched between two pieces of SPAM. Got all that?
Good luck!
The giveaway entry period will run through Thursday, December 29th, 2016 until 11:59PM US Eastern Time. Winner will be selected randomly. One entry per person. The selected product/products will then be ordered immediately and shipped immediately, assuming they’re in stock.

LOADS of chamois cream, yeah!!!!
A Garmin action camera to upgrade my old go pro
Wahoo elemnt. Great new computer!
I’d buy a Virb because next year will be a year filled with adventures and I want to record them all.

I’d like a wahoo desk
I’d get an Edge 820, because I’m a bit sick of getting lost!
Garmin Edge 820.
Why? Because although I’ve been waiting for this product for years, I don’t want to spend my own money on something that Ray hasn’t done an in-depth review for. Speaking of which, Ray…
Garmin FR-735 for my GF
Need a trainer! Or maybe a power meter… Hmmm…
I’d love a new Fenix, after falling on mine last week and smashing it. 🙁
I’d get a smart trainer, because anything to motivate indoor riding because it is hard to do long indoor rides
Garmin Epix – just because …. 😉

Predictably, a power meter. Or maybe a Garmin watch for the missus.

Hi,
Simply this….
Wahoo Fitness NEW KICKR Indoor Power Trainer!! My Garmin is good but I want to try this out.
Thanks
A bike trainer!!!!
Probably another forerunner 2xx. I recently smashed one, and am missing it.
I think I’d choose a smarter trainer
Wanted an electoral college miracle. Will settle for a 520.
Perhaps the Spartan Ultra for me. Oh yes !!!!!
Multi sports watch
I’d get a Suunto Spartan. The watch is very stylish, sapphire glass, and has triathlon functions.
I’m a simple man with expensive taste. (Disregarding if the watch is actually worth the money or not. … It’s not worth my money but a giftcard isn’t my money. 😛 )
I did pretty good on my running gear wish list this year. I would love the new Withing Steel HR when it hits.
I’d go for a Fenix 3 HR basically because my 235 has a new scratch on the screen which is doing my head in!
Latest GoPro because I’d never buy one with my own money!! 🙂 for the marketing data analysis reading this, I need $500.00 worth of Nutritional products because Big Agro got me hooked on the Sugary Junk and I need my fix!
Action cam or power meter for power tracking.
hey Ray,
I’d buy the Garmin Vivomove with the leather band for every day use, a replacement band for my running fr230, and the Asics Men’s Gel-Cumulus 18 as mine are starting to give in 🙂
thanks for the opportunity!
A bike computer because mine was stolen last year and I’ve been too stubborn to buy a new one!
Hmmmm . . . eeny, meeny, miny, moe. . . catch a Garmin by the toe!
Would love a Fenix 3 HR to train with, hunt with and do 24/7 tracking.
I’d get a smart trainer (Cycleops Magnus?), because I moved to a new city where riding outside isn’t great and riding inside is boring.
Most probably a Pioneer Ultegra 6800 power meter crank arm.
An upgrade to the watch would be great.
Any watch with HR because I am tired of having a sweet snap on my hairy chest.
An new Garmin Edge 820 for navigation. Mostly to discover new routes.
I would get a smart trainer… they’re quite useful in the northeast this time of year
I’d go for Powertap pedals
Definitely the new Garmin Virb!
(Ultra 30 is what I think it is designated as..)
I would get either Vivoactive HR or Garmin 920
I would love to get a Tacx flux. Then I would have no excuse not to get on my bike.
Probably a smart trainer of some kind. But haven’t nailed down which one just yet.
I would get a Garmin FR630 or 735XT or Edge 820 but not Fenix 3!
I would get a power meter or socks for a year.
I NEEED the new Kickr!
New trainer please and thank you! Or the new Fenix whenever that may be released.
Some form of GPS so I don’t get lost cycling around New York State
Anything so my husband will stop bugging me!
My 310xt has been a faithful companion over the years but i need a new friend. Hello Fenix, it’s nice to meet you.
Garmin Fenix 3 HR or probably the new released Fenix (waiting for CES). Started swimming this summer so my Forerunner 235 is not enought..
I would get the the GoPro HERO5 Black 4K Action Camera because I like that it has hands-free control with simple voice commands.
Kicker 2 for those long dark days of winter
I’d probably get an Edge 520… 😉
a trainer for my wife
A Garmin Fénix 3 HR, to run my first ultra!
Power meter. Would double check your excellent recommendations like Santa did his Naughty/Nice list, but likely pedal based.
A Garmin FR735XT! A tri watch stylish and slim enough for me to wear 24×7.
Me please, I’d like a power meter.
A Garmin Virb for all my trail running exploits
$500. off a Tacx Flux
I’d get a Stages Power meter
Would love one of the latest Garmin watches!
Probably a Wahoo fitness trainer. Have to stay fit in the winter!
Powermeter for the upcoming outdoor season!
GoPro
Smart trainer for those winter blues
Kicker for these long dark days of winter ahead…Happy New Year!
Santa didn’t bring me a power meter, so Powertap p1 pedals please!
I want (not need) a new running watch. Perhaps a FR 235 would quite nice.
Winning this woul probably end me up as powermeter owner! 🙂
I’d go for a Garmin Verb so I can get the cool overlays on the videos!
Tacx Neo because, why not!
Zwifting like a Pro..
A powermeter would be great.
I’d definitely get a power meter. I got a trainer last year, and it’d be nice to validate my training by seeing results out on the road as well.
$500 towards a Tacx Neo to work off the christmas goodies would be nice
Vivoactive or the garmin 735, not sure which yet
I’d have to go with the GoPro Hero5 to document my mediocrity.
I really want a pair of PowerTap pedals to use on my track bike so I can better train for State Championships in 2017!
Karma gimbal!
Wahoo Kickr so I can get faster over the winter!
Definitely a set of garmin vectors or p1s so I can train by power this winter
I’d get a bepro s for the other bike
I would probably buy my wife a small Running watch from Garmin
I would get the PowerTap P1 pedals.
I would like the Garmin 520 which will help me get from the back of the pack to the middle of the pack.
A running powermeter, because
I want a time machine, that way I can go to 2050 and bring back the new garmin superwatch…
Will get the Garmin Vector 2S Pedal Set to power up my next Triatlhon training
