We have a winner for the Vulpine Schwag Grab!

Lots of you told us who you favourite cyclist was not it's time to find our winner...

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.

Cav's no 1, followed by Fab, Contador, Hoogerland and Delgado (not necessarily in that order). That's the great thing about road cycling - so many heroes!

Alberto Contador even though he is taking a break at the moment...  4 Also Tom Simpson who died of exhaustion (amphetamine and alcohol but not clem!) on Mont Ventoux during the 13th stage of the Tour de France in July 1967.

I haven't a clue what his name is, but I see this guy nearly everyday. He's well into his eighties rides just bike with full panniers and full weather gear on. I see him go off in the morning and come back in the late afternoon. I even get to wave hello to him sometimes when I'm out on a ride. This guy just chugs along relentless of gradient or weather. I'd Love to be like him now, never mind at his age!
