Cycle show Garmin competitionWin cool Garmin stuff on Facebook with the Cycle Show!
Do you like bike tech? Do you like getting it for free? Well have we got the competition for you. Head on over to the road.cc Facebook page for a chance to win Garmin goodies worth nearly £600!
What can you win? well for starters there's a Garmin Edge 520 Plus that road.cc tester Liam Cahill really rated when he tested it in July. He found it "easy to use with good mapping" and called it "a great GPS computer for performance-minded riders". High praise indeed.
As well as that there's a Garmin Varia RTL510 radar rear light, that can sense cars behind you and warn you of their approach on the Edge 520's screen. "The new Garmin Varia RTL510 is a product I never knew I needed", said David Arthur in his review on road.cc. "It's an early warning detection system that lets you know a car is approaching from behind, which is a godsend on the rural roads I regularly ride"
As if that wasn't enough you also get the Varia UT800 Smart Headlight into the bargain, which can pair with the Edge GPS and use its speed and light sensor data to automatically adjust the intensity of the beam. Clever stuff! That little bundle is worth a few pence off £580, and the lucky winner will also get a pair of free tickets to The Cycle Show.

You've got until Monday night to enter, you have to do it on Facebook and it's UK residents only for this one. Full T&Cs are here.

He's won three mountain bike bog snorkelling World Championships, and races at the back of the third cats.
