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.

A powermeter would be good.
Saris MTR bike rack!
Hmm a toss-up between Favero pedals and a new trainer…

I would love to try the Karoo Hammerhead. I have read all the negatives but still feel like it has such potential.
I’d get a fenix 6s pro to replace my forerunner 935
Garmin 945. Time to replace the ole Fenix 3.
Need new bike shoes, want Wahoo bike computer.
Probably a wahoo climb for a bit of fun.
I would have liked a Fenix. I have the old 225 and it works. Most of the time. I would like to know detailed stats and I fear getting lost on trails and roads and there are so many bells and whistles on the all newer watches. Ps. My hubby got an Instinct. I got a robe.
A pedal base power meter for geeking on the data.
I want Favero Assioma duo for my bike ?
I would choose a wahoo kickr core, time to switch to direct drive!
I am trying to get back into running and would love to complete a 5/10K in 2020. I would love a forerunner 245 with music, although if I won u found find something a little fancier lol.
A smart trainer (as riding a dumb trainer isn’t any fun)
A new watch would be in order for me.
The Garmin Vivomove Luxe! I’m so deeply entrenched in the Garmin ecosystem and they have finally made a watch that will look great at work and out in the evening, fits under the cuff of my shirts, and still have a bunch of activity and sport capabilities that will get me through when I don’t have my Fenix with me! Thanks DCR for your always great work.
I’d like a new garmin fenix to replace my old fenix 3. Thanks
Fitness tracker for my husband and the rest towards

I would like the favero assioma pedals. I don’t currently have a power meter and I ride two different bikes so seems like a good choice for a power meter.
I’ll probably get the Forerunner 945, thanks for the opportunity.
I’d go for a Garmin Venu watch, so that I can listen to music during workouts without bringing my phone along!
I’d turn the coal into a new trainer, I’m starting to outgrow the Fisher Price trainer.
I would like a stand up paddle board or a stryd power meter. A Spot would also help keep me safe on my trips. Thank you for your reviews. I really appreciate all the information you concisely provide.
Fr 945, because it’s light and has all the features
A running watch for me and a fitness tracker for my S.O.
A Garmin multi sport watch!
I will get Favero Asioma pedals.
A smart trainer so I can keep up on spring group rides! Without one I feel like I’m losing the fitness arms race…
Favero Assioma Duo because I’m so annoyed at the battery connectivity issues with my Garmin Vector 3.
A million nutrition gels and a Garmin pod- just because those are things I need now
Garmin Forerunner 945, mostly because my Ambit 2 is on its last legs
I would love a Pioneer power meter!
I have to say, a SUP is pretty tempting.
I would like to win something something something, because I like gadgets
A Fenix 6x solar, so I can give mine to my wife, or maybe a Vivoactive Star Wars.
500 fidget spinners?
Garmin Edge 1030 because my Wahoo Bolt’s battery died

A Garmin Fenix would be nice please Ray!
I’d really like to get a Wahoo Kickr…or maybe a Garmin Varia light? Thanks for hosting the giveaway!
I’d love a set of Favero Assioma Uno pedals, partially so I can nerd out over power readings on Zwift, but really mostly so I can stick them on the Schwinn AC stationary bikes at my local (DC area) gym’s spin class and see exactly how inaccurate their power readings are (and crush my ego accordingly).
Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays all
K
I could use a Garmin Varia radar
A forerunner 945
Why, the longer battery life for ultra running and I’m a Garmin person.
I’d like to get a Garmin Forerunner 945 for replacing my current watch and giving it to a friend. Fingers crossed, thank you Ray and family!
Definitely Garmin 945 for swimming, running, cycling, listening to the music, paying for the coffee and croissant and navigating around.
I think I would need to get a power meter.
I really need a Headwind fan, as any indoor session is a sweatfest.
Drone or power meter.
The new Garmin Venu!
Wahoo kickr. Time to start training for my 1st Triathlon!
A Garmin forerunner 945 may be good for replacing my old Tomtom cardio runner
I would love a Garmin Fenex Saphire

A set of Favero Assioma for more power metrics.
Hi
I would like a go pro to do video of my gravel tour :)
tks for the web site
Ben
A new turbo trainer would be great
Saris trainer rocker. Have had tendonopathy in my hamstring and adductor muscles. My thought is that this has been related to the static nature of indoor training and the quick increases in wattage during intervals (compared to outdoor riding). Interested to see if increasing dynamics of positioning while indoor riding will help.
Garmin fenix so I can track my multi sport activities.
Definately a fenix or other high level garmin watch
Favero Assiomo power meter because I don’t have one and signed up for my first half Ironman and need to start somw serious training
I got a new bike, and I can’t transfer my DZero (different BCD), so I’d like a Favero Assioma Duo. A new Fenix 6 would be nice too.
i’ve been eyeing a new bike computer? maybe a garmin edge?
This is a comment. Because the autor asked to place a comment. I like reading reviews here and now it is the time to get something interesting and it sould be some universal stuff suitable for both – running and cycling. But nit limited to.
So. Garmin Fenix. I think it is good gift.
why not. new Feinix
I love you so much
My wish is for a Suunto Spartan Sport Wrist Heart Rate + Baro. In desperate need of a new watch as my old Garmin 310xt has taken on some water and is temperamental on a good day.
Garmin Venu to replace my aging gen 1 Garmin Vivoactive HR.
I’d totally get a wahoo climb!
If not too late I’ll go for an Edge I think. Thanks a lot Ray!
Yay, extravaganza time! Thanks CT!
For whatever reason, cycling dynamics from Assioma is unavailable for the old good 520, can we upgrade this?
Upgrade my watch to a Garmin something….
I think my wife could use a new watch since her vivoactive hr has carked it. Obviously something i could probably pinch while she is not looking……
I need a watch upgrade. Help me out, please, would ya?
