We have a winner! Friday Schwag Grab: Cannondale Metro Jacket worth £140!

Today's Friday Scwhag Grab will keep you dry in bold orange kind of a way...

We have a winner! Guidob - who asked "Does shouting me, me, me, make me sound too needy?' Yes it does Guidob, but luckily for you random number generators don't take that sort of thing into account.

If you didn't enter here's what you missed… but don't worry they're be another chance to wins some schwag along shortly

This week courtesy of Cannondale it's more Schwag you can wear in the shape of this superb Metro Jacket as tested by us. This is the test sample so it has been worn but it still looks brand new. It's a large: too big for 5ft 8inTony and too small for 6ft 3in Dave. Our office is no place for a jacket we called “a clever feature-packed, mid-priced commuting jacket”.

Now completed over 5000 miles commuting through London and had my 'first' taxi door open in my face yesterday... was lucky, only a few scratches! Until the next one I guess. New jacket would ease my scratched Ultegra's pain. Maybe?  1

I'm thinking wearing the orange will help disprove to numpty London driver that 'I didn't see you' just doesn't wash.
