• It's a difficult decision as I'm fairly similar to you in the respect of liking to self support, the issue is that I'm about to exchange for a house so any extra help would be appreciated. I can see where my disposable income will go next year and it won't be a new groupset and wheels for my R3. I've been approached by clothing brands etc previously and I turned them down because "I'm not an influencer, I'm just a guy who rides his bike a lot", they were things that I haven't used or know about so it wouldn't benefit me at all.

    'Also, it's late in the game. You don't want them taking a bunch of credit when they're only getting on board late Oct...'

    This is something I need to discuss with them, as it's my challenge. If they push and it helps build my charity sponsorship then that would be amazing but if they start saying look what we're doing etc etc then it's a no from me.

  • Exactly. You don't want them muddying the waters, taking a bunch of credit, etc.

    You've got a mortgage or will have - how much will free sugar actually save you vs. the time for the content? It's nothing much compared to the mortgage right?

    I'm basically talking you out of it - but if YOU think it's a good idea/deal then go for it. I'd be more inclined to just push them for promo support which benefits you both, with no longer term "in exchange for x" stuff.

  • I've had a brief read of the contract and I need to assess what to do. It's for 3 months initially for a trial (length of the remaining challenge...)

    Yes, it's pretty much sorted. Doing this won't change anything with that at all. I'm really undecided as you can tell. I'm doing this challenge for me and to raise money/awareness for Men's mental health/Suicide prevention, so things like this opportunity is nice but it's not that important to me.

    It won't save me much money, as my nutrition is as cheap as possible because I get through so much. It will help with recovery/bars though as i do have a liking for biscuits and chocolate which isn't the healthiest.
