We have good news and bad news. The bad news is that you missed out on our July Giveaway which ended on July 31st. The good news is that we are always running cool promotions and we will surely hold another one very soon. AND, I am pretty sure that you will probably win it.
So, what was the hullabaloo about with this July Giveaway? Well here are the knitty gritty facts and figures for you.
1.
The Who & What: The July
Giveaway gave our awesome Road ID customers and fans a chance to win two amazing
prize packages (

Cycling, Garmin, Giro, Oakley and Newton.
2.
That’s All I Had To Do:
With four simple ways to enter it was hard for anyone (other than you maybe) to
find a reason not to enter. All you had to do was: A. follow Road ID on
Twitter; B. follow Road ID on
Facebook; C. make a $5 donation to
one of our 12 “Road ID Gives Back” charities, or D. make a $20 Road ID purchase.

We Raised Big Money: As a result
of the incredible generosity of our customers and social media friends, we are
thrilled to tell you that we reached our goal and raised over $50,000 for
charity in just one month. Please, somebody high-five me, quick!! The top 3
beneficiaries from the promotion were:
Susan G.

We Gave Away Signed Jerseys: In
addition to our two grand prize packages we sweetened the pot to encourage more
donations by giving away two cycling jerseys signed by Levi Leipheimer, Chris
Horner, Bob Roll, Phil Liggett, Paul Sherwen, and Craig Hummer.
5.
People Said What: Our top
charity donor and signed jersey recipient, Dan J. of McLean, VA had this to say
about his donation, “My wife and I make a conscious effort to give a fixed
portion of our income to charity each year. The bulk of our giving tends to go
to ‘big’ charities like Doctors Without Borders or Catholic Charities. But your
contest brought my attention to these (other) worthy organizations.” And went on
to state, “On a less noble note, the prospect of winning a Madone, or even the
signed jersey, made this attractive …(and) my award jersey is now hanging over
my desk at my office!” he concluded.
