A Cyclingnews special sponsorship featureSpecialized & Cyclingnews "Whose Shoes?" ContestDuring the 2004 Tour de France, Specialized and Cyclingnews offered an opportunity to win some great new gear. Up for grabs were four pairs of new Specialized Carbon Road shoes. Readers had to look a photo of a rider's shoes (on the rider and attached to a bike, of course) and then guess the identity of the rider who was wearing the Specialized shoes. In the competition, and if you were right, you were entered to win. The winner of the second competition was Johnathan Twells of Edmonton, Canada, who correctly identified Filip Meirhaeghe. "Wow, I never win anything. This rocks!" Johnathan said. "My cycling, eh? Well I do it all. Almost. I race road, mountain, and cross.
