Send us a photo of your cycling inspired breakfast, or a description of what fuels you best….and Win.

This is a fun little contest suggested to us by our friends over at Bike2Power, and I thought it was a pretty dang great idea.  I’m a firm believer that a great breakfast starts your day off on the right track and I’m looking forward to the fun photos and breakfast ideas that you all have.  I also believe that All Cyclists are Champions….so this is a perfect combination for a contest.

Get creative and have fun with your creations…photos will be judged on level of creativity, design, and how it portrays cycling.  Written submissions should describe your idea of the ultimate breakfast and why you feel it helps your cycling.  Recipes can also be included as well.

Contest Details

• Send us a photo of a unique cycling inspired breakfast that you created (just like in the example above) OR send in a short description of what you feel is the ultimate power breakfast for cyclists.
• Photo can be taken using any kind of camera.

In case you have no clue as to what a Bike2Power LightCharge ultra light dual-mode charger is, I thought I better provide a little information on it so that you know what you’re in the running for with your entry.

LightCharge Product Features

“LightCharge is a compact, lightweight, and energy-efficient bicycle usb charger for LED bicycle lights and mobile devices.  Italian-made and designed, LightCharge was conceived with a performance cyclist in mind.  It is exceptionally lightweight, weighing less than 2 ounces (50 grams with cable).  The product comes with a bottle dynamo cap that reduces friction and drag effect to a minimum.  This hyper-efficient bike charger begins charging at easily achievable 8 mi/hr (13 km/ hr); with a dynamo cap, at 10 mi/hr (16 km/hr).

In addition, the built-in overvoltage protection makes LightCharge a safe and efficient bike phone charger option.  LightCharge can be used to charge bike lights and mobile devices.  Easily switch between charging a bike light or a mobile device with a push of a button; bike lights can be hardwired or simply plugged into a USB port, depending on a rider’s preference.”

In last Thursday’s #bikeschool, we had a special question sponsored by our friends from Hydrapak. Anyone who answered Question #4 from the night was entered to win one of Hyrdapak’s brand new 2012 Wolly Mammoth water bottles.  These bottle aren’t even available for purchase yet and these bad boys are different from other insulated water bottles in that they have primaloft insulation – the top tier stuff that keeps you warm in things like sleeping bags, synthetic down jackets, and things like that.  It’s inside the walls of the bottle and is sure to keep your liquid cold.

You Pick the Winner

Here is the question that was asked, and below that we have 20 of the responses from last week.  Yeah, there are a lot of them….but read through them all and help us pick the winner.  Leave a comment for us with the Twitter name of who provided your favorite answer.  If you provided one of these responses, be sure to get all your friends to come over and vote for you.  We’ll announce the winner later today.

Congratulations to @RandyRoubaix who wins a Wooly Mammoth water bottle from Hydrapak.  His reply to last week’s #bikeschool question received the most votes.
