Eurobike Day 1 caption competition - we have a winner!

What's on Tony's mind? Win schwag!...

After much scratching of head and stroking of chin Fringe wins the Day 1 Eurobike caption compo for "bread, sausage and coke three of my five a day. mmmmm" which  rather spookily is what I was actually saying. For his efforts we'll be sending the lucky lad some "glamourous" Eurobike Schwag. Don't we won't try and and post you any sausage though. 

 

road.cc's founder and first editor, nowadays to be found riding a spreadsheet. Tony's journey in cycling media started in 1997 as production editor and then deputy editor of Total Bike, acting editor of Total Mountain Bike and then seven years as editor of Cycling Plus. He launched his first cycling website - the Cycling Plus Forum at the turn of the century. In 2006 he left C+ to head up the launch team for Bike Radar which he edited until 2008, when he co-launched the multi-award winning road.cc - finally handing on the reins in 2021 to Jack Sexty. His favourite ride is his ‘commute’ - which he does most days inc weekends and he’s been cycle-commuting since 1994. His favourite bikes are titanium and have disc brakes, though he'd like to own a carbon bike one day.

I'm not that bothered about weight myself, but if you cut it off carefully it'll stay fresh in a bottle of Diet Coke until you've finished in the mountains.

To be honest I was surprised it had taken so long, you can't post a picture of a man holding a Wiener in his hand and not expect at least one knob gag, surely?

OK, but apart from the diesel engine, aspirin, the royal family, Beethoven, Eurobike and sausages, what have the Germans ever done for us?

No, I still prefer the 2009 vintage currywurst. I can still taste it now.
