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.

There are so many things to choose from. Maybe a new Fenix.
I’d get a fancy shmancy bike trainer
I’d get a trainer so I can ride my bike during the Canadian winter!
Definetly a GoPro Hero 5 would be in the Clever Training cart!
I would like wahoo trainer desk because I do not want to build one myself and I can not bring myself to pay more then 200 $ for a small table
I’d go for an optical heart rate monitor with digital readout.
Ah a Fenix 3 to upgrade from my 2 thanks Ray
I’d get a 520, because looking at my wrist while riding has nearly ended in disaster a few times now.
The torture device known as the Kickr
Would be really keen on a quarq, need a power meter to finish of my canyon :)
kickr cause why not
Powermeter as have wanted one for a while.
I’d get a Garmin 920 XT or a Fenix, because I’d like to upgrade my Forerunner.
If I had to choose right now that would be a Garmin edge 1000. Or maybe a power meter … most certainly both in fact !
Tacx Flux! Need to get that indoor training stepped up a notch for IM training.
My tri bike would really benefit from a full set of shifters/brake levers on the base bars.
New garmin 520 so I can use routes!
Spartan Ultra or Fenix3HR
Probably the Fenix 3
Edge 1000 because my Edge 500 was donated to the outdoors on my last mountain bike ride.
I’d get one of the newest Garmin watches for my new years resolution of running more often.
I would like a Garmin watch, such as the Fenix3 HR, Forerunner 735XT or 920XT. It would be nice to be able to track my activities outside of cycling in a manner easier than lugging my cell phone (and draining its batteries). The other part of me is also thinking of a power meter for my bike, as I am appreciating those numbers from my Wahoo KICKR.
I would get a tacx flux. 500$ credit is the kind of motivation I need to buy a nice one.
Garmin Fenix 3 to track my next ski trip.
I’ve been contemplating the Fenix HR or the Apple watch series 2!
I was hoping for some training videos.
Felix 3
I would buy the Garmin Fenix 3 to replace my Garmin Fenix 2.
A fenix 3 hr to track my snowboard runs using the barometric altimeter and optical hart rate sensor.
thinking about a VARIA
I would buy Tacx Neo because I love to ride in the mountains but not when they’re covered in snow.
Fenix 3 HR, or GoPro Hero, or DJI Magic Pro
I’m debating about getting a PowerTap Disc Hub and a new wheel or just a new bike that would give me more options for a power meter.
Have to be a Fenix, I think.
Ho Ho Ho
I’d probably go for a set of Powertap pedals
I’d totally get a FR235 but that’d leave money left over so I’d also get a bunch of random socks ;)
I would have to go for a smart trainer. Changing gears to match the efforts in Sufferfest is just so tiring.
Shoes for my feet as I have feets.
I think I’d have to go for a PowerPod, because my 910xt is still going too strong to justify replacing, and I have three bikes and no power meters.
I’d get a couple of sensors for my Garmins, including the HRM swim/tri, a footpod and maybe the Garmin tempe (thermometer on the Fenix is a disaster)
I would love to get the Garmin Edge 1000. My older Edge has finally crapped out and would love to upgrade.
I want a Garmin watch to start tracking my runs. Maybe next year?
Garmin Virb Ultra
Or
Garmin Edge 820
Why
To record and create videos
P1 Left only pedals
A quarq dzero for me.
I asked Santa for it. But Santa was too busy training in the mountains.
So santa said – check with ray , he has something up his sleeve cause tis the season :)
I’ve been dreaming to own my first garmin watch. I’ll take the fenix 3 :)
The most comprehensive running watch from Garmin.
Vivoactive HR
Need a smart watch to supplement my edge 1000 and track everything off the bike as well as keep me up to date with my business when I’m skyving off.
It is time to start training with power, leaning towards the peddle option due to the flexibility.
68/5000
A garmin Fenix 3 HR to replace my Fenix 2 which disappoints me a little
I would buy gopro5 to record my races.
A new GPS running watch
I would like a Fenix 3 HR as my Suunto Ambit2S is playing up and would lie to try a Garmin now!
Probably a pair of Powertap P1 pedals
I’ve got some bike touring coming up in Southeast Asia and I’d love to get one of the Garmins Edge Explores.
Either a Wahoo Elemnt or a Garmin 520; I haven’t finished scoping out the merits of each.
Probably a GoPro hero for snorkeling
I would take PowerPod and then maybe an action cam to go with it :)
Ohhhh….I would love a Power Tap!
New Garmin watch would be awesome!
I’d probably go for a GoPro Hero since I just purchased the Garmin watch I’d been eyeing.
power meter :)
Wahoo Kickr to start training with power!
Something to replace my Ambit 1. Fenix HR or Spartan maybe.
A new Kickr so we’d have His and Hers, instead of just His. Merry Christmas!
Probably the Fenix 3 or other GPS watch for running.
I’d get the lovely Fenix3. Don’t care which one, i just need some tool to get me trough the first year of ultra marathon training. Also i need some navigation after getting lost in the woods :).
So many gadgets to choose from… Does Di2 count? ;-)
spartan ultra……don’t ask…;
A Fenix 3. Myfenix 2 is a bit dodgy on GPS in the bush strangely enough which it is designed for. Time for a new watch.
i would most likely choose the Garmin 735xt. I need a light weight watch for half marathon training.
I’m simple. A nice watch for running. I’m using an old but trusty Garmin 220 right now. The rest I always need shoes!
Use it towards P1 pedals
I would use the credit towards a Garmin Edge 520 or a Power Meter to help achieve my goals in 2017.
Thanks DCR and Clever Training
Happy Holidays
I’d get a Garmin 735XT. My old faithful 310XT is on its last breath and so is my normal watch. The 735 would be perfect in that it would cover all of my needs for a training device – and it looks good too!
I’d get a bike trainer which I need to keep fit during winter season.
Probably a Garmin 735 or 820. New electronics would a motivator for the new year.
Would be the Fr630 The only tinymodell that feature wifi…An easy choise…
/lars
Trainer, don’t have one.
Any power meter. Well except limits.
GoPro Hero5 Black. To capture video and photos from team and life events.
A new Garmin Fenix 5 will do it when it is available soon ;-)
735XT – my Garmin Swim has just died. :-(
Fenix 3
I would go for a bike trainer. I’m a fair weather rider and the weather is always fair in my house.
I would get either the PowerTap C1 power meter or a dual broadcasting gps computer. My phone just isn’t cutting it anymore.
I would love to get a Wahoo Kickr. I had a snap but I prefer a wheel off trainer.
I would get a new Garmin Fenix 3 HR
I’d get a Fenix 3 HR because I can’t read the screen on my old Fenix 2.
I would get a Garmin Forerunner 235. I love their running watches! I’d like to not have to wear the chest strap for heart rate.
A new Garmin Felix HR!
Probably a Garmin 235.
I will wait fo Fenix 5, surely it will the best for outdoors sports for my opinion
Probably a powermeter of some kind, cos I do not have one
Santa forgot my less noisy bike trainer. :) Happy holidays and thanks for the chance!
I would look at another power meter I reckon maybe the rotor 1? I killed 2 C1s so not them again.
Don’t know. Please ray I have been really good his year let it be me.
Wahoo kickr snap
To update my Garmin 410 Forerunner and or Garmin 800
GoPro Hero5 to start with video…
