Vittoria Rubino Pro limite edition tyresGiro tyre schwag: we have winners!
Ahem. We're a little late with this one, it got, erm, overlooked in the excitement of the Giro. But no matter, we've remembered (read: been reminded) now, and so it's on with the sparkly suit and the game face to pick the winners out of the giant hat.
And they are: domino, Russsauntry, Tmowbs, Btester2 and jwr
Congrats to our winners! More schwag will be along soon...
--------------------------------------------------------------
So stage 19 has been cancelled, and you're sitting around feeling glum. Cheer up! We've got five sets of limited edition Giro tyres from Vittoria to give away.
Based on Vittoria's Rubino Pro but in fetching Maglia Rosa pink (actually, they're a bit pinker than that), the Rubinos feature Giro branding on the sidewall and they come in a racy 23mm width. Normally you'd have to shell out fifty notes for a pair but we'll give five pairs away to five lucky road.cc readers on Monday, to ease the pain of the Giro being over.
Just comment below and you're in the hat. Usual rules apply. Good luck!

Auto Sales guy has everything covered and legal from his standpoint. Where's the story? I'm sure he'll take it on the chin if it all goes tits up too.

I'm in!
Considering reading about Da Luca has just turned me a shade of pink
then yes please!
Real men ride pink tires!
these will completely ruin by carefully coordinated bike but what the hell..
I would light up the street with these PLEASE PLEASE I am in
Now I'll have to replace all my kit to match - ah well!
+1 blue theme bike here
Though they could replace the white ( & black rubinos) on the very white singlespeed
would go perfect with the pink team kit.
Why not..................
I would like these pink tires to welcome me to road cycling. I am a new rider with a hot new bike, a GREY Specialized Dolce Elite. Need I emphasize how perfectly grey goes with pink? Also, I watched every stage of the Giro on television, so brownie points for me, I think!
Cycling needs more women and so I am setting an example and I'd set an even better one if people could watch me cycle by on my pink tires. Thank you.
Yes please! Those would look perfect on the bike I've just finished pimping for my son...even more pink than the Michelin Pro 4s I've just fitted. Nice.
Would complete the '80's golfer' look that I've been trying to get to.
I have a pink bike these would suit a treat
Well as I was thinking of getting some pink bar tape these could fit right in to brighten up the all black bike. Yes please.
yes please
I know someone that would love these
yes, want those!
Count me in - thanks!
I like to look pretty in pink, especially on Saturdays
yes please
White bike, black wheels, pink tyres. A match made in heaven.
I really like the look of those.
I'm game for a laugh !
Love these
Exactly whats required to brighten up my black bike & the gloomy weather!
Yes please! Will go some way toward easing the pain of riding 400 miles on broken ribs and a collapsed lung if I can look down at these beauties!
please put my name in the hat!
Would match the red bike deliciously
xx
Count me in
ya, i need those
would finish my bike off perfectly
If I win, I promise to get pink bar tape and skewers to complete the look
