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 would love a Fenix 6!!
For me a forerunner 945 please
Hi, well my tom tom its breaking down, time to change, a Fenix 6 perhaps?
I could really use a smart trainer to help with being more accountable with my workouts
i’d get a new trainer
The Garmin Forerunner 945 so I can hike and tri with one and the same watch.
I’d probably upgrade to a FR945
I’m thinking Kickr Climb
Apple watch please…
I’ll get a turbo trainer for the winter:)
I would like to get a new multisport watch. I am currently using a two year old Samsung smart watch. The accuracy levels on it are quite poor but I am one of those people who does not buy replacement smart gear until the existing gear completely falls apart.
A new smart trainer for me
I’d get a FR945
Fenix 6X for sure. I’m ready for an upgrade this winter
I’d get a Garmin Fenix S fro my girlfriend who ran her first marathon this October. I’m so proud of her, and wish her many happy more miles
I would probably go for the new Tacx Neo 2T. Trainer season is here!
interested in getting a Stryd pod to use TrainingPeaks workouts on an Apple Watch
I totally need a new trainer! WAHOO!!!
I would like to get a Tacx Neo smarttrainer
Power Tab G3 hub would be my choice.
I’d lean towards a bike trainer of some sort, but undecided as of yet.
I’ll like a garmin Fenix 6 Watch :)
Splurge on the Fenix 6S for after the baby comes!
I’d probably upgrade to a FR245 plus some other things.
I would like to receive a Garmin Fenix 6.
Oh no it ended….. :( Bye bye fennix
I’d have to get a Tacx Neo 2T and make sure I use my bike more then 3 months a year!
Hi Ray,
A kicks bike would be great to stop putting my nice Cervelo on a trainer ;-)
So fingers crossed for the give-away, thank you so much !!!
Def want a Garmin 945! Woo hoo!!
The 4iiii Fliiiight. Iiii have the StacZero from the oriiiigiiiinal Kiiiickstarter campaiiiign and would love to upgrade!
Well, well, well, if I’m not too late I think a Garmin Fenix 6 would be the best, since I’d be able to retire my 10 years old Garmin Forerunner 310XT.
Maybe a power meter.
Garmin Forerunner 945 or Tacx Neo 2t
I’m lusting after the Garmin FR 945, esp after my Vivoactive 3 (which i’d been using way harder than intended for running & cycling) bit the dust last month and I’ve been watchless since.
Fenix 6
Turns out that trying to squeeze in daily outside workouts is hard, particularly around the holidays. A smart trainer would be super helpful for those days where life gets in the way.
I would choose a Fenix6 as it is a great all around watch… great for triathlons and great for hiking.
Hi, I would love a new bike computer so garmin 530 bundle would be awesome replacement for old polar.
A Garmin Edge 530 would be an awesome gift!
I’d definitely get a drone to make some awesome aerial videos.
Indoor bike trainer! Tacx??
I would likely pick from one of the current crop of dedicated smart trainers (kickr bike etc.) and use the $500 towards making me feel less bad about the expensive purchase. Thanks Ray!
I would get a Wahoo Kicker Snap, the Computrainer is getting worn.
I’d grab the Wahoo Elemnt Bolt bundle so I can stop using my phone as my bike computer. Cheers!
I would like to get Tacx Neo to replace my old Tacx Genius :).
I’d get a second wahoo element bolt so that I don’t need to switch mine between bikes.
I would like to get Garmin Edge 530 for my wife, so she would get into cycling. And if she don’t use it (even if she did) I’m happy to use it.
I’d get a new trainer
I would take a power meter
Might finally get me to buy a kickr climb. Been going back and forth on it for a while.
New watch! Not sure which one but my current Garmin watch isn’t working so well and a new one would be fantastic!
I think I’d go for a new Garmin 645 Music GPS watch to replace my aging Fenix2!
Thanks DC! Enjoy the holidays and your family.
A garmin for my new Brompton :)
If I would win, it will be the Wahoo KICKR CLIMB. Due to an injury I can not run a lot, so I am looking into trainers since some days.
A power meter is soo 2019, but I’m getting one anyway !!!
Garmin Edge 530 to replace failing 520
It’s good time to replace my old GoPro 4
I’d explore getting a Garmin Vivoactive 4 watch.
Fenix 6x or maybe Varia radar. Thanks for doing this again Ray.
I just got a Kickr Snap (I know, wheel-on, but that’s what it has to be living in a NYC apartment), so I would love a Kickr Climb. Why not at this point?
Favero Assioma please.
A new Fenix would be great to replace my old FR935. I’m really intrigued by the solar-function.
Thanks Ray!
A new Fenix would replace my old Garmin 920xt. :)
Thanks Ray !
torn between a drone and hero 8. or do i upgrade my 920xt?
I would like to join the power pedal movement. Need to improve my cycling this year and would like to incorporate power metrics.
A Polar Vantage V to replace my Polar M430
A new Garmin Fenix would be super
Choices choices I am torn between a set of power meter pedals or a new direct drive trainer. I think the kicker core would fit it just splendidly.
I’d get the Wahoo Kickr Climb, simply because mountain biking with your front wheel flat is plain wrong!!
what about a new trainer?
some smart pedals?
didn’t figure out yet. gonna think about it once i win the giveaway
Garmin Forerunner 945. Why? I am on my 2nd Forerunner, a 935, and I am utterly hooked. Garmin Coach has massively upped my game & I love the metrics. I also have an Edge 530 which syncs well. However I am doing my first marathon this coming year & PacePro would be a massive help, especially as it’s a trail marathon with 3,000ft of elevation. I’m also doing Berlin, so another help there for pacing. I would sell my 935 & out the money towards getting Vector 3’s. I’ve got a Wattbike Atom & would love power for out on the road, especially as I am looking to do my first IM in 2021. Love your work, keep it up! (Every sports tech item I’ve bought has been on the back of your reviews)
Still searching for a decent set of power meter pedals
I want to get A Kickr headwind. My paincave is so Hot!
Probably go for the Garmin 945!
Happy new year !
Varia probably!
I’d love a 4iiii Ultegra crank arm power meter so I can up my outdoor training and make soem dents in the local crits.
Fenix 6x, because my current 5xPlus doesn’t have all the whistles and bells. Thanks.
Wahoo kickr core
Ohhhhh….soooo maaaannny things! First, that t-shirt! Hahaha! Then a year of Zwift…! And, yeah, that KICKER!
Favero assioma would really be nice
A set of power meter pedals for me! Would help with my training goals for the new year! Great contest! Thanks Ray!
I guess I wouldn’t mind an upgraded Garmin Fenix to tell me how unproductive I am ?
Hey Ray, Happy New Year! I’d like a Cycliq Fly6 & Fly12. I commute 17 to 20 km 3 to 5 days a week and after a few hairy occasions, I’d just like the evidence on camera if anything ever happens that I didn’t want to.
Thanks for your work, congrats on your growing family!
I wanted a Hawaii vacation. I’ll settle for a new wheelset.
Varia radar, an early warning before motorbikes shoot past would be handy on the country roads round here. And a Garmin something or other with Spotify integration to go with my shiny new Aftershokz headphones I got for Christmas :)
A Garmin Edge 1030
I’d look at Garmin varia to be safer on the bike or a new watch for swimming.
Power meter
Ah I think I’m too late. I would have chosen a Garmin 945
I would like to get a new sportswatch
Pick me!
A Garmin Fenix 6 for my wife
Would use the month to upgrade my Fenix watch
Definitely a new Garmin watch, because my FR225 is beat down.
Garmin 305….I miss having a hamster strapped to my wrist
A new Garmin watch since the strap broke and replacements aren’t available!
I really want to get Garmin Varia radar. You and GP Lama have truly made me feel like that’s the one must have device for this year. Besides it will probably make my wife more relax knowing I have an extra help on the road.
Thanks for the giveaway Ray!
