Well it's official, I have entered the contest.  No worries though for the rest of you.  The only luck I have is bad luck, but I can keep hoping!  As for my ride, I have a couple.  An 08 Ultra Classic and an 04 Vulcan Nomad.

I just read 10-10-10, so I still have time to find space in my garage!

Explanation of the math test. 

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Skill testing questions are a legal requirement attached to many contests in Canada.

The combined effect of Sections 197 to 206 of the Criminal Code of Canada bans for-profit gaming or betting, with exceptions made for provincial lotteries, licensed casinos, and charity events. Many stores, radio stations, and other groups still wish to hold contests to encourage more purchases or increase consumer interest. A classic example is Tim Hortons' Roll up the Rim to Win, a contest that offers a chance to win with every cup of coffee purchased, with prizes ranging from doughnuts to vehicles. These organizations take advantage of the fact that the law does allow prizes to be given for games of skill, or mixed games of skill and chance. In order to make the chance-based contests legal, such games generally have mathematical skill-testing questions incorporated.

The most common form that these questions take is as an arithmetic exercise. A court decision ruled that these must contain at least three numbers to actually be skill testing; for example, a sample question might be "1 + 1 + 1" (Answer: 3). Enforcement of these rules is not very stringent, and especially for small prizes, the player may not be required to answer the skill-testing question to claim a prize. Anecdotally, getting the answer wrong is also often not an obstacle to claiming a prize. The questions are also becoming easier.[1] For contests held in the United States or other countries that are open to Canadians, the questions must also be asked of any Canadian winner.

The same section of law prohibits receiving consideration in exchange for playing the games, resulting in a related peculiarity of Canadian contests: the "free entry alternative", which is usually telegraphed by the fine print "No purchase necessary". Generally this means that it is possible to enter the contest for free by, for example, writing a letter to the entity sponsoring the contest and requesting a game piece or entry form.

Good luck and slow smoking,

So that means I won.

[Smokin Soon]

Just make sure mine is a red one when you ship it to me. I just do not do blue!

[ArnieM]

Hey Pachanga,

That was a very lucid and enlightening bit you posted.  It is very much appreciated.  3.  Do I win now?  I'll take any color.

[Tiny Tim]

It's too bad that it'll be too cold to ride it when it gets here.  I'll have to spend 7 or 8 months staring at it and polishing on it before it gets warm enough to ride again.  By the way, I don't care what color it is....... ;D

[classicrockgriller]

HUH?.......... I WON !

[KevinG]

HUH?.......... I WON !

Sorry, you didn't answer the math question. The answer is 3 so I guess I win. Ha Ha
