VIP Day with Canyon and Lionel Sanders (win a trip to it)
 
Lionel Sanders is prepping for one of his first closed-door fit sessions with Canyon…and you’re invited to join him!

Canyon is offering up a rare chance to join Lionel, Canyon and Slowtwitch at the velodrome and watch Lionel’s fit session, followed by an overnight in Carlsbad, Calif. to visit the Canyon USA headquarters and a lunch with Lionel.



One lucky winner will be flown to Los Angeles Dec. 11, where you’ll join Canyon and Slowtwitch at the VELO Sports Center velodrome in Carson, Calif. to catch Lionel’s closed-to-public fit and equipment testing in a true behind-the-scenes experience.

Canyon will then take you south that evening for a paid overnight stay in Carlsbad, Calif. Join Canyon and Lionel Dec. 12th for lunch with Lionel courtesy Canyon, a tour of the Canyon USA headquarters, and a flight hope that afternoon with a Canyon Swag Pack.

Look for the signup text box on the main forum page (if you're on a desktop computer) or on the Slowtwitch home page (on any computer + any handheld device). Bear in mind that if you sign up you're ON CANYON'S MAILING LIST! So, don't sign up if that's not what you want.

Looks like this:



Alternatively, look for an email from Slowtwitch with a clickable link that will automatically enroll you.

Also! Lionel's going to be at the San Diego Tri Club meeting, on December 12th, held at Canyon's headquarters in Carlsbad, CA. More on that later.

For a little clarity, Jim Manton will be running the testing, but Ivan O'Gorman will be on hand overseeing the fit, in concert with advice from Jim. And advice from Dan if he chooses to chime in too. Lots of good cooks in this one, but with Ivan as Lionel's overall fitter, am sure the broth will be pretty damn good. Cool fly-on-the-wall opportunity for one of y'all.

The various possible fits will be aero tested at the velodrome (alphamantis, or notio, ...) ?

I can't wait to see the pictures, and hopefully the CdA...

How about we get some more inventory of speedmax bikes before this event?

I'm sure Dan will talk story, and the contest winner will certainly be welcome to tell their version of about the process on the forum. But there are certainly some new methods/processes that we'll be doing with him. It's up to Lionel if he wants to release his CdA numbers (this is his test and his data)...but don't count on it.

Does the Canyon swag include a bike?
 
Re: VIP Day with Canyon and Lionel Sanders (win a trip to it) [dand] [ In reply to ]
 
Boy, that would be a heck of a thing to bury as "swag" ;-) Alas it does not, but will be some cool stuff to head home with. Swim/Canyon/Run tees, hats, tees, bottles stuff like that... and anything you want signed by Lionel to take home to show your envious friends.

Can I enter as a non-US resident if I cover the flights myself?

Same question arise to me. But this is done by Canyon USA, so make sense for them to have a USA resident.
But hey, my son live in Canada, and I spent so much time in the US...

Quick note: the email says Saturday, December 11 - December 11 is a Tuesday. That will probably decrease the number who are available those days...

It's my birthday. Would you throw in a cake if I win?

Disappointed to see that Canadians are not eligible. It would be great for a Canadian to have the chance meet the 'Canadian' superstar!!!!
