We have a winner! Ultimate Schwag Grab! Win a Trek 7.3 FX worth £400*
Right, tiffin has been taken and the random number generator has done it's thing… it was a great ride while it lasted and we'll have to do it again VERY soon, but for now we have a winner… maci234 the bike is yours.
According to his profile maci234 doesn't have a bike at the moment either so the random number generator truly did it's work well, so long as you ride it, and we'll be checking. As soon as we get back from Eurobike it'll be going in a box and heading your way to Scotland. Enjoy it.
If you missed out, read on to see what you would have won had the random number generator picked you. A Trek FX 7.3 flat barred commuter guaranteed to get you around town and beyond in the finest of styles courtesy of some cool Bontrager finishing kit.
Our prize bike is a never been ridden** 20in model - so ideal for those from around average height to verging on the tall – 5ft 8in and up.
The usual rules apply with a couple of slight tweaks this time out, as ever simply comment below to enter - one comment per person thank you (anyone entering more than once will have all their entries deleted).
As this is a biggie the tweak is that we'll be keeping it open until Friday 28th OR until we have 399 comments (So tell your friends) - the draw will be at tiffin time either on the Friday or when we hit the magic 399.
The other tweak is that the prize is that we'll only post the prize to UK residents - anyone else can enter, but if you live anywhere else in the world you'll have to come and collect it yourself… we gotta eat y'know.
* Okay, £399.99

Radar tells me their closing speed, if they are slowing and how far away. Then I decide to say a prayer. The change of light pattern is incidental.

Quite so, which is why our village 20mph zone covers the whole residential extent. Of course, enforcement is another thing..

No, that's very doubtful while proper testing would be fully destructive.

oh go on then if you're giving it away
Shall I, Shan't I, oh go on then count me in, in, in...
If I win this bike I'll be riding it around town with such a big grin on my face & everyone will think that I'd escaped from somewhere secure!
Really cool bike, looking for a commute bike at the moment and this is ideal, save wear and tear on my road bike. My size too
Looks quite cool. B)
Yay! I want to win!
- wow, it's got my name on it....oh hang on, it's not 'Shrek', it's 'Trek'......
I'm just taking up cycling for the first time since I was 17 and I am totally baffled by the range of bikes around these days. They all seem to have more than three gears
Winning this one would save me months of research!
count me in, another one for the collection would be great
Been away. Hope I'm not too late!
I like this, I want this!
Get me to work on time!
I'd love this bike but the missus would be away on it before I got the chance.
Please please please me me me
Yes please - it will make the perfect snuggle buddy for my scott sportster P3-Bless

Wow- thought only Armstrong got given free Treks.
Please Please Please count me in.....I love freebies
Sweet. Count me in.
yes please
Count me in for this competition... I'd love to get a new bike!
Oh oh oh pick me!
maybe a joke will help?
A tandem rider is stopped by a police car.
"What's the problem officer?" asks the rider.
"Perhaps you didn't notice sir, but your wife fell off your bike half a mile back . . ."
"Oh, thank God for that," says the rider - "I thought I'd gone deaf!"
Cheers
Yes pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeease
Count me in to win
I think I may benefit the most from this as my chopper is a little frail now, plus I'm 38!
Just the thing to motivate my winter commute.
Hi there
Please may I win this bike?
I wish to continue my Trek collection and winning this bike would double it!!
