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 Hero7 Black to a Fitbit Versa smartwatch to a random pair of socks to the Favero Assioma power meter, or heck, even towards a new trainer. Whatever floats your boat (note: they don’t sell boats or even other vessels like submarines).
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. F5), 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 Friday, December 28th, 2018 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.

Smart trainer, time to move on from the £100 basic one!
Time for a new Garmin!
I would actually like to go with that Hero 7 you mentioned.. :-) always wanted to try one for my mountain bike trips..
I’d love to get a Polar Vantage M
I didn’t get a Gopro…
Towards a trainer for me!
Apple Watch 4
Garmin Vector 3!
I would love to have a home-trainer, Neo 2 If possible but I would be glad with everything ;)
Thank you DC
A new Polar Watch with a HR strap
Maybe a nice pair of shoes…My feet are cold.
I am going to get a Fenix cause my 910 is too old to drag it to races.
Hope everybody have a great 2019!!
I injured my knee skiing ); the other day. I am not sure what gadgets will help with recovery, but I am sure Ray will have some recommendations.
Garmin 935xt
I can’t decide between a power meter or a smart trainer or maybe a watch for the hubby.
Stages Ultegra right siede power Meter in addition to my existing left one
Wahoo Elemt & cadence sensor for me. My Apple Watch does nicely for running, but twisting my wrist / tapping with my nose to wake is less than optimal on the bike.
Really interested in the vivofit 3 music. I have an older garmin watch but I haven’t really been training for the last year. I’m looking to get back into running marathons (jan 2020) and started up training again yesterday.
Nice to upgrade to a direct drive smart trainer.
A silent smart trainer in order to avoid wake up my twins ??
New garmin or suunto watch
A new Garmin 935 would definitely put a smile on my face and the dread I face when charging my aging 910xt behind me.
Definitely an indoor trainer, even though I love in Spain!
Have my eye on the GoPro Hero7 Black, because my Hero5 is due for an upgrade!
Not exactly sure. But I bet I could find something.
DJI drone
Santa, I was nice this year, please bring me my first Powermeter :)
Garmin 935
I’ve been eyeing either a 4iiii or Assioma Duo set, so I think it would be one of those. Already have a few PowerTao wheels, but with a kickr and desire to ride race wheels at times, moving my power measurement away from the rear hub seems like a good idea.
Smart trainer for the bike.
Assioma Power Meterrrrrrrr!
I would love a Fenix 5+ for this holiday
I’d love a new Garmin watch. Probably a fenix 5 plus.
Assioma pedals! And all I got for xmas was an indoor herb garden
Maybe a Fenix watch or something similar.
Probably some socks. Really need socks.
I’d like a new watch. The fenix 5 would be great!
I’d love to get a smart trainer, I’ve just given birth to my son and being able to keep up my training while on maternity leave would be amazing
Hero7 Black.. because my 5 needs a friend.
something for my bike. I just signed up for my first duathlon
Garmin 520 Plus. Merry Christmas! :-)
A new Garmin 935 to replace my Fenix 2.
Hmm, probably Fenix 5s to replace my aging Fenix 3
I could use some new watches to track my progress :)
Garmin forerunner, need to replace a broken vivoactive.
I’d love a Wahoo Climb to up my Zwift experience.
Time to replace the Edge 1000!
Would love a new garmin, but a new gopro is tempting too
smart trainer. need to get back into some hard core strategic training.
Gopro or a Garmin
Some sort of power meter for mountain biking to upgrade from my PowerCal.
GoPro 7 would be sweet!
I would love a Garmin Fenix 5 for my hubby!
Wheel off trainer, to win.
Santa (and my slightly less significant that she was before omitting the following from my stocking) forgot to put a Fenix 5x Plus in my stocking this year!
Santa had me on the naughty list as I didn’t get the Fenix 5 Plus I really wanted.
Desperately need a trainer (and a place to put it, but I don’t think you can help me with that!)
New Garmin please and thank you
A smart trainer and/or a Garmin 520
Assioma, the 4iiii has served well but I’d prefer not to be tied to a particular crank config.
A fenix 5 – love my fenix 3 but would like to be able to see a real map rather than just a track in the ether!
My husband really wanted a new garmin and I wasn’t nice enough to get it for him.
I’d use the money to get my wife a new sports watch, probably a Fenix. No one I know works harder at being a great mother, friend, wife, teacher, and she deserves something for herself to chase her own goals.
I’d love a Garmin Instinct… what’s better than a watch you can hit with a hammer? Merry Christmas Ray!
I need a new watch but I’m not sure which one would be best. So, if I win, I’ll check with the greatest sport gadgeteer on the planet and ask his opinion!
All I want for xmas is Mariah Carey on a KICKR Core.
hehe, thanks a lot for a great lottery :)
I would ask for a set of sensors for my fenix or maybe a gopro or …. so many tempting things!!!
I’d get a new Garmin Vivoactive 3 Music and a new pair of Hoka One One Bondi 6 because I need a new workout watch and my current shoes have way too many miles in them :)
Some Gopro hero 7 accessories. Perhaps a Karma Grip?
A GoPro Hero7 Black so I can start my own Blog and make a living from it
It’ time to upgrade my trainer.
A powertap chain ring power meter. I didn’t receive due to expense.
Maybe a new trainer? Or a watch?
Garmin Fenix 5. Would like something newer and more stylish than my 920.
A smart trainer!
I would get a pair of Favero Assioma pedals so that I could finally start tracking my power and do harder intervals!
Garmin Varia Radar! Awesome Product
I’ve got a couple of things I need and it’s hard to pick just one, so I’ll leave it until the last minute :)
Direct drive trainer to upgrade the pain cave ?♂️
I would love me some Assiomas. They would hopefully help me get my bike off the trainer to go outside more.
Hi Ray, I’d get a power meter – love my smart trainer but train on the road by feel. Nathan
Probably a smart trainer… My Trutrainer rollers are great for some fun riding inside, but not for some structured workouts.
Finally I won a prize ?
Probably a GoPro.
I surely need a new smart trainer. Or a power meter. Or both!
I’d like to try some power meters to help my training.
Totally a Tacx Neo 2, that way I can upgrade from my 10 year old fluid trainer and really spin!!!
A powermeter. Maybe the favero assioma
I would love to get the new Garmin Forerunner 645 GPS Watch with music! So I can train without a phone with me.
Probably cold weather gear, since I live in Minnesota and despise trainers, and the shrink fairy has been working OT.
I would like the Polar Vantage V. I have been curious about the built in run power and would love to give it a try as I train for my marathon!
Need me some new Garmin watch
I didn’t get an Edge 1030 :(
A nice new Garmin Edge1030
Is this open to Euro-based peeps?
I have dibs on a fenix 5s plus!
a new tri/running watch!
Garmin Fenix 5x Plus. Music on the go would be a great upgrade from my Fenix 3
Powermeter to improve my next 70.3
Fenix 5S
A new trainer or Garmin
