We announce the Canyon comp winners for our Tour of Britain rideout

Three lucky readers get to ride brand new Canyon's to watch the Tour of Britain...

On Thursday September 8th the Tour of Britain's stage 5 will come to its climactic end in the city of Bath which just so happens to be the home of road.cc HQ. That got us thinking, how do we celebrate such an event?

Well we invited Canyon Bikes along and they've chosen three of you to get the chance to ride some of their brand new fleet and watch the race.

 The lucky few are -

  • Karen Whyte who gets to ride the lovely Ultimate
  • Nik Browne who'll pilot the very quick Aeroad
  • Sam-Jared Coventry that gets to try out the spanking new Endurace CF SLX Disc....

Congratulations guys and girls, we hope you enjoy yourselves whatever route you choose.

 

For the rest of us that have to ride our own bikes we've got a couple of routes planned, a 43km short circuit to catch the race at Kelston...........

​ or the epic route crossing the border into Wales to watch the race in two places, firstly Tintern and then again as it passes through Pucklechurch on your way back to road.cc HQ.

Both rides will be preceded by coffee and nibbles at the office before departure with pizza and beer available on our return, not a bad club run, eh? 

 

If you fancy it you'd best get your name down here then as we have a couple of places left.

As part of the tech team here at F-At Digital, senior product reviewer Stu spends the majority of his time writing in-depth reviews for road.cc, off-road.cc and ebiketips using the knowledge gained from testing over 1,500 pieces of kit (plus 100's of bikes) since starting out as a freelancer back in 2009. After first throwing his leg over a race bike back in 2000, Stu's ridden more than 170,000 miles on road, time-trial, track, and gravel bikes, and while he's put his racing days behind him, he still likes to smash the pedals rather than take things easy. With a background in design and engineering, he has an obsession with how things are developed and manufactured, has a borderline fetish for handbuilt metal frames and finds a rim braked road bike very aesthetically pleasing!
