 | Wow, is this for real? Words cannot express how happy I am today. I still can't believe it to be honest. Loved the contest, I thought it was a very insightful, and a well thought out idea. I cannot express my gratitude to Pinkbike, Trek, SRAM, Bontrager and all of the others that put this package together, I am going to try and shred it as hard as I can! Cheers guys and again thanks so much, I don't know how to express myself tbh, wow. - Oli99 |

Glad that he is a real user with account history and a full profile, not some bogus account to gain multiple entries *cough* holiday giveaway *cough*
Glad that he just bought a Trek Slash a few weeks ago a therefore was probably a Trek fan before winning a Trek.
I genuinely am happy this guy won it. Real account, real trek rider is going to ride it and not flip it for $, real deserving.
Congrats @oli99
And of course, congrats to Oli99!
You are one lucky man. I can imagine how excited you are, it a a big wow.
Enjoy the ride and be safe all the time.
Prepare yourself for you best year so far! much love
:-P just kidding, congrats dude. Well jel
I will be posting pictures as well, don't worry
Takeiteasyridehard I felt like I had to give back in some way, before this happened just because of this website. It's free, and awesome, and I just feel like some people take it for granted, not many mind you, but still it would be nice if we all respected this place. I feel like it sometimes doesn't get the recognition it deserves, thanks to all the mods who keep the place tidy eh?
a fundraising platform would be a nice idea, pink bike plus is also good, plus the features are actually quite nice to have in terms of BuySell and messages.
Cheers oli
Kind regards,
Everyone else from PinkBike !
(jk, have fun on your dream toy
Congratulations Oli99!
Congrats to the winner!
We expect pictures!
Shred on!
