The Best Sock Game – Pointless Prize

[Sunyata]

Okay… Freezing Saddles has started and due to the logistics of getting the teams set up, I totally failed on the details of my pointless prizes. Whoops.

[ATTACH=CONFIG]13057[/ATTACH]

So, here is how you go about joining in on the Sock Game pointless prize competition:

Step 1: Wear awesomely cool socks (on your feet) while riding your bike (outside) so that the world can see that you have great sock game.
Step 2: Take a photo of you wearing your awesome socks (on your feet) with your bike in the picture (outside).*
Step 3: Post that photo in one of two places:
a) On Instagram. Please use the following hashtag (if it is not hashtagged properly, it will not be judged since I am lazy and will only look at photos using the hashtag search function): #BAFS2017SockGame
b) Here on this thread if you are a non-instagraming participant.

See, how simple is that?!

Now… How do you actually WIN?

I will silently judge you. Well, more specifically, I will silently judge your sock game. I will pick my top ten favourites and then post them for the forum to pick their favourite. The owner of those socks, or at least the person who was wearing the socks for that particular photo, will win another amazingly fun pair of socks**. Probably from BlueQ because their socks are the funnest.

*Bonus points awarded if the photo can also be used for wheels&wings’ “The Warming Climate” prize.
**The winner will need to kindly let me know their sock size and if they have aversion to strongly worded sayings on socks… 😎

Better than Google Maps when visiting NYC. Just look at your socks.

Steve-O straight reached over and tugged on the hem of my leggings to check my socks when I sat down at Coffee Club yesterday. They were not amusing, they were utilitarian and wool. :p

These wool socks are comfortable and just right with knicker length bike pants on a foggy evening.
No need to grope my pants leg to unveil these Terrapin tributes.

Sockneuring, coffeeneuring/coffeecatting, and doughneuring in one prior to beerneuring. Donut was a run of the mill chocolate glazed Dunkin’ Donuts variety with a black decaf coffee. Nothing special but there are those cool socks.

I was saving these for today:

Sock Game #4 – Woman’s March on Washington: Subversive Socks

I wore them all day, and while riding of course. I also wore my helmet the whole rally and march, to show solidarity as a sister-cyclist.

Great socks for Coffeecatting, but I wore them for a little late-night sleaze ride.

Can you guess what Pointless Prize I am sponsoring?
These cool socks got quite wet on my return ride today, as you can see.
