Hey gang, so I have a box of Trifuel socks, by DeFeet. I'm running some contests and will draw names to give away several pairs each week until I run out, basically write reviews on your gear to help build our database for others to research. Also taking Race Reports, those I publish on the site will get a pair of socks as well.

There is a forum for race reports (http://www.trifuel.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=15) and I'll check there for some good ones. Preferably just send to and I'll read through them. Looking for more complete and detailed reports like Chucky and a few others have submitted.

The thing I am now watching out for in regards to gear, is where and from whom it is made. I am becoming conscience about who ,if anyone is being exploited. Especially children. Can I include hard back up-able facts, also giving the positive, made in the USA, where the materials stem from. Italy or China. Those are points I now check when I buy gear.

Noel, don't be selfish. Shipping is very expensive even for ultra light socks. You should offer him more than a review. Don't send em Tribro!

HELLOOOOWW..

I did send him more then a review. I added gear to the list that wasn't even IN THE LIST, so I added new Items.. anyone can write a review ( like..ME :) )
AND I ADDED THOSE THINGS WAYYY before people where getting "rewarded" for em. So I think that that counts too. Now people will do it, with the socks in mind.
So I'm not adding stuff.. unless I actually have some of the stuff..
and maybe my former post will account to something, unless it is considered a load of sh*t...
And last time Tribro wasn't going to send the Trifuel vizors to Europeans, we had a discussion about that THEN TOO..
So you don't have all the info that made this post of mine ( the one above) come together..

Now you do Blitz, thank you.

Send me my socks dag-nabbit...

Noel.

Well, you can always run barefoot like the Kenyans. And if you really need socks then I can send you two old skinfits that don't really fit anymore, and have slightly different shades of grey.

Speaking of skinfit, why aren't you not at Club Santa in Lanzarote? Europes best are there preparing for the IM on the 20th.

I was at laSanta in febuary now I have to work like normal people do. And I am not one of Europe's best so why should I feel obliged to go there now? I'm not doing IM Lanzarote...

And I don't want 2nd hand skinfit socks, I have socks enough I just don't have Trifuel socks ( yet).

I'm setting aside the bulk of them for the contest drawings, but will maybe put a stack aside for purchase if you don't win. Depends on how the inventory goes out as far as sizing. I only have probably 30 of some of the smaller sizes so want to make sure I have sizes available for the winners. After a couple weeks I'll see how the sizing is breaking down and determine what i might be able to set aside for purchase.

And to clarify, not everyone gets a pair if they submit a review, that would be over 500 socks. At $6+shipping that would pretty much break my little piggy bank, and I'm saving up for the Cervelo ;)

You get entries into the weekly drawing and each week I choose 5 new names to receive socks until I run out (and yes if UPS or US Postal ships there then I'll send them, so Australia should be fine as well)

Hey tribro-- I keep getting an error message when I try to submit a review--I hit the "Add Review" button and get an "oops, invalid action" screen. Can I just email them to you?
