Today is Friday – you made it to the end of the week. But more importantly, today is also Australia Day. I only know that because I’m in Australia, and the beaches are more crowded than the starting line of a marathon (still, I pretended to workout and went for a short swim). Thus, it seems reason enough to give away some gadget goodness. But fear not, I won’t be restricting this to those in Australia, or any other country. Anyone, anywhere on earth, is welcome to join as always.
Somehow it’s been far too long since we’ve last done a giveaway. I seriously don’t know how, because I talk about it almost every month with the Clever Training crew, and then somehow it slips off my radar. Perhaps we just need more holidays to have faux reasons for me to give stuff away.
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 almost anything they sell (or get points instead). If you win, you can use that credit for anything from the GoPro Hero6 Black, to a Suunto Spartan Ultra, to a random pair of socks, to the Garmin Vector 3 power meter, or heck, even towards a new trainer. Whatever floats your boat (note: they don’t sell boats). Also note, your credit is in US dollars, not Australian – otherwise you’d get less. Nobody wants less.
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 Monday, January 29th, 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.

Fenix 5 to replace my dying Fenix 2
Been meaning to pick up a HRM-Swim, so that’s a start
I would likely put it towards a power meter or a new trainer.
Hmm, I’d probably get a power meter
I need the new fr watch!
I’d get a Kickr Snap. I’d saved up and bought a regular Kickr as a reward for a 100 pound weight loss. It ended up broken from the factory- so went back to Clever Training. Decided to put the $ to a new bike, but would really love a smart trainer.
Probably a decent pedal based power meter! Fingers crossed!
Wish I could get that Suunto Spartan need to upgrade this old GPS watch. Thanks!
Vector 3 power meter
Fenix 5X because who doesn’t want one. Ray you should try spam musubi. It’s pretty good!!
I would definitely get the Garmin power meter as it’s what I am currently saving up for!
The A unit really needs a new running watch, so that is what I would get. With anything left over (luckily she does not have the same expensive taste that I have) I could still get a couple of gadgets.
I will be looking at a new trainer.
Garmin Vector 3. Allow me to have power on both of my bikes without having to switch my Vector 1 back and forth, plus would make travel easier as I wouldn’t have to drag a torque wrench along in my luggage.
Some pedal based power meters.
I need the Hero 6 Black for better fish pictures.
GoPro Hero6 to capture photos of fishes in Antigua :)
I would buy a new smart trainer. Doing most of my training in my garage gets incredibly boring.
New power meter for new bike
Garmin 1030 – why not?
Go pro hero 6 plsssssssssssssss
Tough call…between a new Garmin and a trainer. Either would push the goal I’m aiming for. Thanks!
I could use a power meter for my bike!
Kickr Snap
I need a new bike trainer, preferably the Tacx Neo or the Wahoo Kickr!
I’d use it on a new trainer because the boss lady won’t let me buy one otherwise
Def a smart trainer! I’m thinking the tacx neo if it’s compatible with my TT bike :::fingers crossed::: (on both winning and compatibility)
Vector power meter. Addicted to data.
A power meter! Garmin Vector 3 would be perfect.
I’d put it towards a GoPro Hero Session. Thise things are cool!
I’d get a new gopro to replace my old gopro 3.
I’d like a GoPro for my bike
Garmin vector power meter, because everyone needs power!!
New Smart Trainer! Because, who really wants a dumb one!? ;)
I’d definitely be looking at trainers. I really like the Wahoo Kicker Snap. My wife and I could use it for rainy day rides.
Thanks for the giveaway, Ray!
Garmin Vector 3 pedals
I’d get the GoPro Fusion 360 cam because 360 video is awesome and it would be fun to give it a shot on some easy training runs.
GoPro Hero6, would take some videos of my goofy kids for sure!
I would use to towards a new garmin. Like the forerunner 645
A Suunto GPS watch would be an awesome upgrade. Hope I win!
Put it towards a set of vector 3s, or a direct drive trainer
I would definitely use this towards the Garmin Vector 3 Power meter. Gotta get to know my watts and easy moving between bikes.
I’d get a sunnto watch as a gift for my son. He would love it!
A bike computer; not sure which one. Wife needs an upgrade for tris.
Id buy a go pro hero 6…cause who doesn’t need more youtube videos of people running on trails?
Oh man, I would use it as a credit towards a Wahoo kicker. Borrowed a friends for a few weeks and it was a lot of fun. Pick me, pick me, pick me…..??????????
I have been using the same fluid trainer for a while and would love to upgrade to a smart trainer like Wahoo kicker. That would make zwift so much better.
I’d get a gopro since I don’t have anything of the sorts
Forerunner 645, my daughter wants to be in the Olympics and this would be a fantastic gift.
Vector power meter! Why? It’s cheaper than 2 power meters!
The GoPro Hero 6, to replace my falling apart Hero 5!!
I’d get a bike computer since I currently don’t have one.
Tough call! 935, wahoo down payment, or garmin bike computer. I run, i ride indoor, i ride outdoors.
Good luck
Garmin watch 635
I’d have to go with a GoPro6. Or maybe a 735xt would be better. Or maybe the 645. Or maybe a fenix. Hard to know really
Garmin 5x please
Garmin 645 (no music) or Fénix 5 ( even if I have to pay difference) Love Garmin.
I would use the $500 towards the next generation Fenix or Forerunner 935. I will need a new watch for my rehab after my hip replacement.
Have to go with go pro. Heavily Invested in garmin virb want to see the differences,
My Triathlon coach really wants me to ditch my 520 and get the Wahoo Element unit. If I don’t it’ll be non-stop hill repeats! LOL
I would like a Garmin fenix 5 for tracking my sports activities with HR and GPS.
A power meter of some sort or a training watch for the girl.
Either the Garmin 3 vector pedals or the Garmin Fenix 5. I need to upgrade. Though autocorrect thinks I need a Garmin genie….
A 935 would be nice to have though it will be an overkill for me. The new HRM from Scosche with the battery indicator would be nice as well.
I think a GoPro of some sort. My daughter will likely put it on the dog, but I’d like to put it to other uses, especially having one of my GOTR girls wear it at their end of season 5K!
Thinking Fenix 5X or 935 to replace my 910XT.
I dream of a smart trainer from cyclops, would really hello zwift!
I would put it towards the Garmin 645M. I am training for my first marathon this summer and this would be very useful for following my training plan!
Gopro hero 6: I will take to my honeymoon!!!
Any new Garmin device would work for me.
I think I’d go for a Garmin Fenix 5. My current all-day watch may function just right, but it looks way too cheap to be used at work in all it’s plastic glory.
Hey Polar, a free tip: maybe it’s time to hire a proper designer for your products?
I’d say either a GoPro Hero 6 or the latest Huawei Watch. Both would be great to take on a run!!
Tacx neo because of global warming
I would get a fenix 5! For swimming and backpacking!
Garmin Vector 3 power meter, because I don’t have a power meter and this he one that will work best with my setup of different sized wheels on different bikes and my short cranks.
Probably a GoPro because I’d like to documents my runs, and it’d be kinda fun. Maybe.
Garmin vector 3 need me more than ever….
Would love a new power meter for my GT Gravel bike as it doesn’t have one.
I’d totally get the Garmin Vector 3 pedals. Finally they got it right and I’d love to swap pedals from my TT bike onto my single speed to see just how many watts I’m pushing on the way to the coffee shop…
I’d get a new Garmin watch
Awesome! I’d use the funds to upgrade to a smart trainer like the Wahoo Kickr so I could join my buddies on zwift!
I would probably get a new GPS watch or some new running gear.
The new scosche? HR sensor.
I would get a Wahoo Kickr Snap so I can take my off season training to the next level!
GoPro 6 because I think I’m addicted to cameras.
Me probably go for something in the eyeglass department
I would get a garmin fenix 5x. Thanks for the chance!!
I would definitely buy a Garmin product. ?♀️?♀️
I’d probably pick a power meter for the bike
I’d get the Fenix 3 and replace the Vivoactive HR I hate!
I want the Wahoo Kickr Snap!!
A Garmin fenix 5!!
Probably some sort of video system. Them car drivers are starting to get crazy around my parts.
Power meter or camera for the bike!
I’d love the Suunto Spartan Ultra or equivalent! I am dying to get a new watch but I still have two that work/function so I am waiting until they die to replace them.
I need a Garmin FR935 to replace my TT original multisport, and to provide real motivation to get back into triathlon in my old age.
Would love to put the Fenix 5 to the test! And also sneak in a few round of golf !
A Tacx Neo as winter is coming…
Vector 3. I like to think it could help me train.
An Edge 520 for my wife and I would be great!
