We’ve just had a couple of FX bikes in to test from Trek, and the lovely Jez who dropped them off (in exchange for Tiffin and coffee) also came up with a top bit of schwag for us to give away: a Howies Slate River waterproof jacket worth £130! And all you have to do is post to be in the hat.
Not only a posh jacket but a famous one: it’s been featured on the Howies Blog, modelled by the big man himself. No choice of sizes I’m afraid, we’ve only got one and it’s a large. It’s in royal blue with Bontrager and Gary Fisher embroidered logos on the front and sleeve – it did come from Trek, after all…
Same rules as ever: just post a comment on this story saying you want it and you’re in the draw. We’ll pull a name from a receptacle next Friday, round about 3pm. The judges’ decision etc. No cash prize will be yadda yadda.

Im in. I’ve always been ‘in’. When I was a kid I wore cardigans now they are ‘in’. At the time people called me a twat. No one is listening now. So now blue jackets are ‘in’ but nobody knows it yet. So it’s obvious that I wear it first then it will be ‘in’. This might take 25 years but it will be such a great ‘in’. Trust me guys.
