Christmas is here again, so our annual festive comp is back for another lap. If you’re not familiar, well instead of us telling you/bragging about what we’ve got in for review like our regular Five Cool Things slot, here we give you the chance to tell us what cycling-related gifts you received for Christmas. Comment below to show us, email us at info@road.cc or comment under the social media posts before midnight on Boxing Day, and our top five will win a prize.

The judging criteria is loose and at our discretion as usual, and when we say quality, amusing gifts count too (just perhaps steer clear of submitting anything that appeared on our what not to get cyclists for Christmas list). 

Winning entries from previous years include a Campagnolo Tin Plate Shield, an ‘Evil Cycling Lobby’ hoodie, tasteful cycling art prints, tools, chain waxing kits and everyone’s favourite Christmas present, road.cc socks. Try to tell us a bit of backstory behind your gift if there is one to increase your chances of being among the winners.

As mentioned already, you can send us your submissions in a number of ways: in the comments section underneath this article, via our Facebook, BlueSky or Instagram pages, or by emailing info@road.cc. We’ll be judging over Christmas and Boxing Day (deadline for entries is 11:59pm on December 29th), and a new article announcing the winners will appear on the 30th.

If you’re a winner, you will receive a message of congratulations and a request for a delivery address. We’ll post the prizes in January when our NYE hangovers have settled. That prize will likely be a road.cc t-shirt and some of our famous Stay Awesome stickers, but with stock running low it may be another useful thing (it’ll be useful, promise). 

Best of luck folks!
