Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Seems like a scam phishing for info. Registered to a Nathan Walkingshaw form Sandy, Utah. Looked like a scam when I first went to it.


Edit: looks like it might be legit from specialized twitter? Not sure now.

I have my doubts about the link in the OP. I'm going to err on the side of caution and edit the link to the contest that is on Specialized's home page.
