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 that are kinda like cash). If you win, you can use that credit for anything from the GoPro Hero 8 Black to a Garmin Fenix watch to a massive pallet of nutrition gels, to the Favero Assioma power meter, or heck, even towards a new trainer. Actually, it’ll cover exactly the Wahoo KICKR CLIMB, since that’s on sale to $499 right now. Whatever floats your boat (Note: While they don’t technically sell boats, they do sell stand-up paddle boards…which, are kinda like 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. F6), you’ll likely get caught up in my SPAM filters. And nobody wants to be sandwiched between two pieces of SPAM. Got all that? Oh, and if you just want that amazing gadget t-shirt above, you can pick that up here. Or, become a DCR Supporter here!
Good luck!
The giveaway entry period will run through Sunday, December 29th, 2019 until 11:59PM US Eastern Time [Update – through Dec 31st when I remembered to turn this off]. 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.

I’d really like to get more involved with fitness trackers! Would be incredibly useful to me.
I’d get a new bike computer as my Edge 910 is definitely past its prime and looks… well used and scratched
A lovely new bike computer.
new altras and a hypervolt!
A Forerunner 945! The plan is to resurrect my (decidedly average) triathlon career in 2020
It’s my birthday tomorrow so GoPro Hero8, would be too good to be true!
Garmin Vector 3
A Kickr Climb will be fine thanks !
I’d like to get a small Gopro to capture some of my runs!
I don’t need gadgets, I’d like more time, do they have that in stock?! and in what size, I’d like a big one!
I would get a GoPro Hero 8 Black to use on my bike trip to Mallorca!
Merry Christmas
a little late to the party but hopefully i still get my new watch.
happy holidays.
I am the boss of all bosses. Only a Suunto 9 can match my bossness. I will destroy you all!!!!!
I would get the Wahoo ELEMNT ROAM because my BOLT is old. And a bike lock. 😉
i was saddened to not receive a garmin fenix 5 plus in celebration of the recent holiday of pointless consumption, but would truly love a gopro to replace our original hero which is now afu. If I was spending that kind of money, which I’m probably not. Just sayin’
Favero Assioma pedals to measure my “room for improvement “
Nice giveaway! I would probably get a power meter.. like the Pioneer Shimano Ultegra R8000 power meter they have for ‘just’ 799 – 999 😉
A Wahoo KICKR Bike, cause I already have a Suunto 9 Baro
I will through in the extra dough… and I want a FR945. My 620 finally bit the dust. I have been getting by with my Apple Watch 4 but miss the advanced stats on the Garmin.
In desperate need (“need”?) of a trainer, so that’s what I’d spring for.
Fenix 6
Gopro 8 and Coros are on my list.
I’d put it towards a Kickr.
Garmin FR 945 or Fenix 6
I would get a Garmin Fenix 6X because my Suunto App sucks and I really want custom workouts for Christmas
My last running watch was a Polar Coach with SonicLink (from 1999), so I would love an upgrade to Garmin Fenix 5 or 6.
New Garmin Edge 830 would be nice as my 800 is missing Bluetooth – and with that is missing a lot of current bike computers smart capabilities.
Hmmm, how about a wahoo kickr climb to round out my pain cave..
My Fenix 3HR definitely needs an upgrade, so a shiny Fenix 6 would be it.
I would get new pedals since my old vectors are starting to fail
I would like a Fenix 6 Pro to replace my Forerunner 645 Music.
I would get a vivoactive 4 – it has music and looks much better than my vivoactive hr.
Upgrade of my bike computer!
I’d love to get a fitbit, ionic or versa most likely!
A new trainer. Sadly, the magnets have stopped responding on my Stac Zero Halcyon. I loved the quiet ride, but given the recent review of the 4iiii version, I’m thinking Wahoo.
Santa must have forgotten my Garmin FR 945
FR 935, so I can ditch the wallet at home!
Only got a pack of patched tubes this year..
I think I need new trainer. What I have is starting to fail.
I would love a GoPro Hero 8!
Oh I want to win. Please please. Massage device would be awesome
Tacx Neo, I chip in the other half! 🙂
A new watch and a HR strap would be nice. Or possibly an excuse to bin my Garmin. Options, options, too many options.
I’d get bike trainer accessories, since I got a holiday bike trainer. Thanks.
Wishing for a Garmin Varia RTL-210 plus a headwind fan.
Probably end up springing for a power meter for my wife’s tri bike actually. We were looking at them earlier this year but didn’t pull the trigger.
The KICKR CLIMB sounds like a good idea, go along with the KICKR CORE and rocker plates we’ve got in the house.
If there is 2nd Christmas, I would like a Garmin Varia RTL-210 as it’ll be useful for long bike rides, especially in the winter.
I need a new smart trainer because mine is dying a slow painful death
something wahoo
I’ll go for the Fenix for sure…
Something with GPS that fits well in my girl’s wrist!
I’d normally say a watch, but I think a KICKR will get the nod this year.
Why not a GoPro 8?
I’d get a go pro to take even move pictures of my dog
Would like a Garmin 945…that is all
Maybe a go pro for the pup, would love to goon a hike through his eyes ? merry merry!!
My husband needs a trainer so he can sleep in with me =)
Meeeeee poor favor. KICKR TRAINER… why cause I need to drop the holiday weight.
We were taking it easy this year, only buying for the kids. Jokes on her, I just spent 5 bills on my wife for a Cricut machine (+ stuff).
Dad needs KICKR Snap now.
Ooh, tough. Maybe the right side of my power meter.
Wahoo trainer for sure. Been on here reading about trainers for months now. It’s the Wahoo I want right?!? RIGHT?!?!
I need one for the Canadian winter so I can be King of Spring.
Really though, thanks for being the one spot I hit up for all my sports tech info. Such thorough guidance!
Best,
Jonas
A trainer for these rainy days
I would like to obtain a very nice garmin fenix 6 because I would never buy it barring free 500 USD
Hey Ray, Merry Christmas. I’d get myself a new Garmin Edge 530!
I would like to upgrade to a Garmin 945 from a 235. Thanks!
I would out the gift towards either a Wahoo Kickr Core or Saris H3, since I need to up my trainer game !
I think I would use it for a varia radar set and then I don’t know what else. A lot of gels? Maybe some kits. All I know is it wouldn’t take long to get it gone.
I’d like to win a set of dual-sided Favero Assioma power meter pedals. Why? Because that will give me an excuse to start building up my next bike… >:^D
Best,
Adam
A Varia Radar (please!) – I’ve maxed out my christmas (and birthday!) gifts for the next three years with a new bike, so the only way to get some new goodies is through the generosity of others!!!
A direct drive trainer for indoor training 😉
A Fenix 6S Sapphire so I can run without worrying about scratching the screen.
Power meter to aid in training
Indoor Bike Trainer
I think a power meter would be perfect!
I would like a Garmin f6 for xmas
I sure need a Garmin Edge….or a Kickr Snap so my husband and I can virtually ride together.
I’d pick up a PowerPod
All I wanted for Christmas was one of the following a whoop strap, a GoPro, or a new power meter and what did I get..earrings…good grief…
Would love to get myself a new multi sports watch as mine is on its last legs.
I’d pick up an assioma power meter in order to do the SPD conversion and put it on my fat bike!
Probably either Garmin 945 or Fenix 6
The wahoo kickr + climb trainer. I’d get it to improve my training for IM Switzerland!
Vector 3 pedals all the way. Currently on V2s and would love to lose the pod even though I’ve never had any trouble with them. Those 3s look too good to not dream ?
I would love a Fenix 6. I currently have a 230 and have been eyeing the 5s plus on sale but the gps battery life of that one is not great. The 6 looks amazing.
I’d go for a power meter of some description.
Thanks again for the competitions!
Something that rhymes with sour peter.
Either power meter pedals or a new Garmin watch, I think…
Wish I got new wheels
I would get a fenix watch, with the hope to consistently train to start the new year in the right way.
I’m mostly a runner- but like to do Tri’s on occasion. Got in a cycling accident this summer. Figure that having a good smart indoor trainer would be a bit safer for much of my riding. Haven’t decided on which one…
I have been considering getting a Garmin Varia and a Wahoo Bolt. I would really like the Varia for riding on roads around here but the lack of compatible head unit is putting off my purchase. I don’t want to spend the extra money on the display for the Varia.
Would love a GoPro 8 Black or a Garmin F945, for my runs.
I’d go for an H3, all the better to make me faster:)
With 4 kiddos and a dadgum fantastic wife Santa’s budget didn’t have room to replace his suunto ambit yet…and the suunto 5 or 9 might fit nicely on my wrist. Merry Christmas and happy new year to you and yours Ray
Probably need to upgrade my bike trainer, I have thousands of miles on my cheapo fluid trainer I’ve had for 6 years.
Wahoo smart trainer for me.
Wahoo Stationary Bike.
Would probably upgrade my Garmin 520 or maybe build a better tool kit
