This past Tuesday we held a contest to give away a BiKase DriKase Smartphone Holder. As usual, the contest winner would be the person who best explained why they needed the phone case. While there were several people I thought had wonderful entries, I finally decided on Jennifer (tvjencook in the comments section). Jennifer said she needed the BiKase DriKase Smartphone Holder because she rides her bike in the “random Florida rain showers” and uses the Road ID app as well.
I asked Jennifer to write a short paragraph about herself, so here it is: “I hail from Chicago, which is the greatest city in the world. I now live in Orlando, which is mainly great because it doesn’t snow and we have Disney World. I love to bike—right now I have a mountain bike that I ride on the trails with. I also off-road, but not as much as I’d like. Working on getting a road bike in the near future. Until then, I hit spin class every morning at 6am then off to work. I work at a television station, which greatly helps feed my obsession and addiction to TV and all things pop culture. I have two boys, 10 and 7. Not only do they keep me busy, they also compete in triathlon’s—proving at a young age that they can already kick my butt. My husband and I enjoy beer way too much.”
I can’t imagine why anyone would want to leave the high taxes, crime and endless snow in Chicago to live in Orlando! By the way, Jennifer also has a blog, Adventures with Jen Cook.

Congratulations to Jen. I too left Chicago for Florida and know what she is talking about. They call them “pop-up” showers and riding during the late afternoon can be like a game of dodge ball.
