I really don't need another bike. The winner should be someone the bike would make a difference in their life. Maybe she's here on this board
.
They had a contest to win a Terry wardrobe. Clothes I could always use
Don't have room or need for another bike just now.

I thought about this briefly, but like Trek420, I've no desire or need for another bike. It really should go to someone who doesn't have a full stable & it would be great to see someone from TE win it
I do, however, enter their clothing contests - that would be awesome!

I wonder how many people enter their drawings? Ton assume.
I'm tainted... ok, Terry... thanks for the up-teen-th email to enter a contest... to really get your account information updated in your data base... can I just have something actually useful and tangible... like how about a free shipping coupon... now that would be a practical treat lol.
Yea, yea... ok, enough already... lol... somebody win from TE... and please come back and show us a pic of your bike... cos I don't believe anybody every wins ...sorta like the tooth fairy lol.
Hormonal rant concluded.
Go TE'ers.

[QUOTE=Muirenn;568155]But I like the tooth fairy!
I just heard that the "Tooth Fairy" isn't PC anymore, it is the "Tooth Confirmed Bachelor"....
I get the Terry update emails anyway, so I figure it doesn't hurt to enter... if you don't play, you can't win, right??

But I hear it's important to read the rules when you enter a contest. And right down there in paragraph 74 under the paragraph about "Reasons you may be disqualified by the head grammar grinch" it goes on to say:

the following groups are not eligible to win. Employees, friends, family of Terry and Terry affiliate companies. TE forum members with 3 or more bikes already listed in their footer unless playing for someone else who needs this bike, really ...."

I wasn't happy with the direction Terry Precision was taking, and after Georgena sold the company to Vermont Teddy Bear... I felt it was time to end our relationship. Originally Posted by Miranda

Their bikes are made by Waterford/Gunnar now, so I encourage anyone who doesn't have a bike yet that they love with a wild passion to try the contest. Waterford/Gunnar are great bikes."If Americans want to live the American Dream, they should go to Denmark." - Richard Wilkinson

Well, I also (first time ever) sent Terry a written note on a return recently. Previously the item had been my favorite. Only thing I'd wear. Then the price stayed the same, and the quality went down
. I'd actually would have sucked it up and paid more for equal / better quality. Now, I will never be buying the item again as it stands.
@Tooth Fairy Peeps...yea, yea... I love the tooth fairy too... waking up to cold hard cash under your pillow outta no where to start the day... what's not to love?
Shipping.... YES.. omg, Terry shipping is so spendy compared to competition... I think our TE is reasonable... well, and just awesome, of course... but back to Terry now lol...
*note to self: must read fine print better bout 3 bike TE disqualification in Terry rules~ drats, Batman... and yes, let a fellow cyclists with less in the stable get a free bike... that is good karma fair.
