We have a winner for the Vulpine Schwag Grab!
My word that was a popular Schwag Grab and a very interesting read too, but all good things must come to an end and now it's time to find out who will be walking awy with a stylish Vulpine Soft Shell Jacket AND a Vulpine Merino Button jersey AND a Merino T-Shirt. The random-number-o-meter has been cranked up and the fickle finger of fate has done its pointy schtick and the winner is…
Antonio
Like a lot of you, Antonio's favourite cyclist is Mark Cavendish. A bundle of stylish, technical cycle wear will be winging its way to him asap.
Our lucky winner gets to pedal off with some top class clobber from Vulpine's range of stylish, performance oriented clothing that's technical enough to meet the demands of almost any form of cycling, yet casual enough to work off the bike in equally demanding social environments.
We were well impressed in our reviews of their Merino T and Merino Button jerseys… we've also got the Vulpine SoftShell in on review, but that's being done by Vecchiojo and he's an artist so can't be rushed although it's rumoured to be on the way any day now.
And because we enjoyed this competition so much we're going to run another with some more Vulpine goodies really soon, so fret not if you didn't win this time around.
To find out more about Vulpine visit their website www.vulpine.cc and for the Vulpine view on what's going to happen at the Tour next week visit their blog.
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.

Excellent - I think I'll replace my emergency tube that is a real squeeze to get into the little Topeak bottle cage bag thingy.

I enjoyed this guy I captured with his hound on New Oxford Street a few years ago.

They are ugly, and presumably require registration to use them. But the argument "it should be car parking instead" is absurd. Surely a camera and...

It's endemic now. Watched a skip lorry jump two reds within 100m on my commute this morning. No intention of stopping.

Robert Miller
Has to be my riding companion, Malrees. When diagnosed with diabetes he said, buy a bike. He rode out with me everyday to help me get fit enough and gradually, without me realising it, got me fit enough for cycling holidays with kit, all in 6 months. A good friend who always made me fix my bike and smiled when i decided to ditch a car for good!

Jon Innerdale, a workmate. If he hadn't been cycling to work, I'd never have got back on a bike again. I'd never have dislocated my collarbone either but that's another story ...
Tommeke! (Tom Boonen)
Or could it be Stephen Roche, one of only two riders to have ever won the Triple Crown of cycling – the Giro d'Italia, Tour de France and world championships
