Etape Caledonia +Zipvit schwag: we have winners!

It sold out weeks ago but we've got places on the 2011 Etape Caledonia up for grabs...

Well tiffin has been taken: a day late, in the form of a hastily-gobbled energy bar as we hare up the M4 on our way back to Bath after another successful Core Bike show. I'm not driving and writing this, by the way. Anyway the fickle finger of fate is just about managing to keep up with the Volvo, and informs us that the winners of the three complimentary places on the Etape Caledonia, along with a hatful of Zipvit goodies, are...

jonporter, Jonny7C and silly!

Thanks to everyone that entered and sorry if you missed out on a prize but don't worry: there will be more schwag along soon!

----------------------------------------------------

Courtesy of our good friends at Zipvit we've got three places to give away on this summer's Etape Caledonia, the UK's only closed road sportive and an event that has been sold out for weeks. The 81 mile route takes you through some of the most stunning scenery in the Highlands this year's event – it really is a very special event indeed. This year's Etape Caledonia takes place on Sunday 15th of May which gives you plenty of time to get some training in.

To make that even easier Zipvit are throwing three sample packs in to the prize pot and we're adding some extra Zipvit goodies from our mighty arsenal of sports nutrition products. So expect some Zipvit ZVI - you'll be wanting those electrolyse, some ZV10 Energy Chews and some Zipvit ZV9 bars… and that's not all Zipvit are throwing in three sets of their very smart looking kit too. The prize doesn't include getting to and from the ride nor does it include overnight accommodation although the guys at Zipvit will be able to help whoever wins find somewhere to stay.

All you have to do to enter is comment below and we'll be cranking up the random-number-o-meter to pick the three lucky winners next Monday afternoon at tiffin o'clock when as a treat we'll be tucking in to some dangerously addictive ZV9 Chocolate Orange Protein Engergy Plus bars… yes, we really go for it up until tiffin in these parts. Honest.

Usual Schwag Grab Rules apply. Good luck!

That would be great, I left it too late, and now I'm not doing the ride
So give me some schwag and some vit in a bag and I'll set up my turbo inside.

Well it rhymes....
