Eurobike Caption comp 2Eurobike Day 2 caption competition - we have a winner!
The judging is done. We liked the "Assos quality control" one, we liked the "pretty fly" one but the winner has to be cycle, the last one in (obviously keeping your powder dry) for "never spill energy drink on your shorts" which manages to combine wit, economy, and some sound cycling advice. The signed Jens Voigt poster could be winging it's way to you soon, if we can get Mat to take it off his bedroom wall… if not, and he is a big lad, it'll be some equally desirable Eurobike schwag.
Finally we'd just like to say that no animal was harmed during the making of this caption, mainly because we couldn't catch it.
Dave is a founding father of road.cc, having previously worked on Cycling Plus and What Mountain Bike magazines back in the day. He also writes about e-bikes for our sister publication ebiketips. He's won three mountain bike bog snorkelling World Championships, and races at the back of the third cats.

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.

Never spill energy drink on your shorts
"Finally!" Says Boonen, "Photo evidence that Cancellara cheated to win the Paris Roubaix. No wonder it sounded like he had a motor if a small army of these guys were helping him to fly to the finish!"
I reckon this ones a girl and it won't upset my nut alergy!
The poor work experience kid completely misunderstood when he was told to include a fly on the crotch.
Seth Brundle, now that conjures up images of that bug eyed american actor whos name i cant remember. (thats not for the caption contest btw, but could be if im to win!)
He might look the part with his new bug-eyed Oakley shades, but deep down, Seth Brundle knew there was no way he'd ever squeeze into those lycra shorts again.
Rapha push the boundaries of cycling kit design even further with their alternative fly position shorts.
Sorry, I couldn't get a knob joke into this one!
Assos quality control reaches a whole new level...
1 - First spy shots of the Castelli buttoned fly shorts...
2 - Proof that padding the front of your shorts with a banana can attract the wrong kind of attention...
3 - Taiwan sweat-shops start using even cheaper to employ labour...
4 - Another reason why I don't DO Lycra...
"the infamous german sausage fly"
Pretty fly for a white guy.
Mark was literally flying by the seat of his pants.
Specialized reveal the power source for the 'hidden' fly wheel motor in Cancellara's Sworks
Weight weenies complain at the latest addition to the Assos lineup.
Is that a bidon in your pants or just a blue bottle?
Is that the new time trial sknisuit with a 'Zipp Fly' ?
Shit sticks.
Oh to be a fly on the ball of this one...
Seam it all before!
