Follow Me - Demo 7 Winner

by Anthill Films
Jan 31, 2011 at 11:25

Congrats to Jeff Tran from North Vancouver, B.C. who just won the custom Demo 7 from Specialized and Anthill Films.

Jeff’s name was randomly picked from the thousands of people who ordered Follow Me off anthillfilms.com or submitted stories about their best day of riding with their friends.

The Anthill crew was totally surprised when we did the draw to see someone from North Van come up as the winner. There were names from all over the world so it’s pretty cool to know that someone who we’ll run into on the local trails will be riding the bike we created with Specialized. Jeff will be pretty easy to spot because he’ll be riding one of only 5 custom frames that were produced.


On Sunday Jeff made the short trip up to Squamish to pick up his new ride. Needless to say he was very stoked on his good fortune. Jeff has never won anything in his life so when he first got the email letting him know that he'd won, he thought it was a scam and almost deleted it… luckily that didn’t happen. Here’s what he had to say right after he got his hands on the bike: “Dude this is just amazing! I cannot wait to take this and ride up in Whistler, Fromme and Seymour. I’m going to have so much fun on this bike and ride it like a boss! Thank you very much Anthill, Specialized and Pinkbike.com“

Thanks to everyone who ordered the film off our site or sent us your stories. Also a huge THANKS to the guys at Specialized for creating such a beautiful bike.

Don’t forget there’s still a couple days left on the promotion we are running with Bike Mag. Order a DVD or BluRay copy of Follow Me from anthillfilms.com before February 4th and you’ll automatically receive a free one-year subscription to Bike Mag. For those that have ordered already and are waiting on their first issue… it should be on it’s way very soon. Everyone who ordered in November and December will be receiving the March issue.

 I was only joking man, I would never steal a bike. I've had two friends get theirs stolen so I've seen what it'll do to a guy. I was only trying to make a witty comment about how much I envy this man. Not to mention I live thousands of miles away from him...

 Congrats Jeff
however..
Call me jealous, paranoid what ever but I just don't believe when I read the winner just so happened to be from Vancouver. You know the exact same thing happened when they gave away the ROAM demo 8 the guy just so happened to be from Alberta..easier for them I guess. Says yet another sore loser
