Cervélo experience
http://www.cervelo.com/content.aspx?m=Extras&i=Sweepstakes

All you need to do is submit a 15-second short film commercial on the Cervélo experience. Videos will be chosen based on voting. Early voting has already started, so you can see the first videos already and know what you are up against. The Grand Prize winner will receive a New Cervélo bike with frameset of your choice, a seven day autumn cycling trip in France and recognition of your video on TV in the 2007 Tour De France ad campaign. Value of the prize is $9,500. That's a hefty prize for a 15 second video. Due to the nature of the niche market this appeals to (serious bike riders), and the fact that it takes a little effort to make a video, my prediction is there won't be many people to compete against. So if this prize interests you, go for it!
