We have a Vulpine Schwag Grab winner!
My word people like the idea of free Vulpine Schwag, over 1200 of you commented in to tell us your favourite cycling season, all bases were covered but early indications are that summer was the winner. And the winner of the Vulpine Harrington Rain Jacket, Cotton Rain Trousers, Long Sleeve Merino Alpine, and Short Sleeve Polo? Well that's…

Who despite what his name might suggest likes cycling in the early autumn best.
Congrats to the winner, who will be getting his fancy clobber soon (well before Chrimbo) and commiserations to the 1,276 of you who lost out. Fret not though we'll have another chance to win some top quality cycling schwag coming your way… Soon.
In the meantime you can console yourself by popping over to Vulpine to think about what might have been season?
====================================================================
schwag grab rules apply.

Usually, summer.
Spring
A dry, crisp, winters morning can be lovely...
Spring for the classics
Springtime is the right time for feeling fine on an incline
Winter, dark nights, bright lights, warm tights, spooky sights!
Autumn, early morning, when the mist hangs in the air and covers the fields on the marshes on my ride to work. Even better when the long horn cattle are in residence.
The beginning of the spring, after those long dark winter days, and you start going out for those longer rides again and feeling that dull ache back in your legs post ride!
Spring....just the right amount of warmth coming through.
autumn for me ...
Spring and Autumn.
Spring and Autumn are best for fresh rides and stunning views
Spring, Summer, Autumn & Winter I love being out on my bikes in all seasons and all weathers
Long hot summer days & nights get my vote.
Has too be spring for me, when the clocks go forward i know that my evening commute will include lovely sunsets too help me home
Winter - for those (rare) crisp, sunny, blue- sky mornings...
Summer - the only time my feet are warm
Summer,nice hot days and plenty of daylight.
Autumn - with that beautiful foliage in the trees....
Autumn, slight chill in the morning air, bright skies and glorious colours on the hills, magic.
Crisp spring morning
Summer on nights with a full moon - something very special about the peace and solitude out in the country with only the stars and moon for company or riding with the masses out to the coast on the Dun Run.
It has to be Spring. Winter is too dark, Autumn too wet and windy and Summer [for the few day that we get one] is too hot!
Summer rain,dripping down your face again.
Summer rain,praying someone feels the same.
Take the pain killer, cycle on your bicycle.
The first day of the new year - full of hopes and expectations
Summer, it's dry....well more than winter is...usually!
Winter, much more of a challenge, come back feeling very manly!
Late spring and early autumn for me - not too hot, not too cold
A hot summers day, sun feeling hot on your face, sleeveless top, I love this most, so all the schwag will help me in the rain & cold
