This week’s ABUS lock contest – Best Photo

By Lesli Cohen @lesknits · On October 22, 2013

This week’s Cyclismas/ABUS Locks contest is looking for the best photo of a bike lockup situation. The winning prize is a Granit X-Plus U54 Mini.

To enter, submit a photo you’ve taken of the best, worst, most creative, or most cringe-worthy bike lockup job you’ve encountered, only one entry per contestant per contest, so make it good! Tweet it and @ mention @ABUS_Locks and @Cyclismas, or post it on the Cyclismas Facebook page and hashtag it #lockpic (see what I did there?).

Entries will close Friday, October 25 at midnight EST. All submitted entries will be reviewed and judged by our “expert” panel consisting of myself, Joan Hanscom of ABUS Locks, and Dan Ellmore of Ellmore Consultancy.

The winner will be announced on Monday, October 28 and winners will be notified by Twitter/Facebook and announced on both social media platforms. We will then make arrangements to send the lock to the winner by mail.

Employees of ABUS Locks and Cyclismas are ineligible, obviously. Contest open to U.S. residents only.
