Sorry everyone. The Tour started and we got a bit excited and forgot all about this one until the nice man from Sponser rang us up and had a quiet word. So without further ado, let's pick some winners! There's two boxes of Sponser's High Energy bars and those are off to…
Blackstone and Weft
And there's also a box each of Sponser's energy gels winging their way to
hastings and palacetim
Well done to our winners, and apologies for the delay! There's more schwag on offer right now in the form of this Vulpine bundle of goodness, and there'll be more to come soon!
———————————————-
Feeling a little low on energy this afternoon? perk yourself up with a chance to win a bagful of energy product from Sw/node/60242/editiss outfit Sponser Sport Food. We've got a whole heap to give away!
For a start there's two boxes of Sponser's High Energy bar up for grabs (one each for two winners) which our nutrition product lab rat David Else described as a "Mild-tasting and highly-effective source of carbohydrate and protein – perfect for sustenance on long rides", in his review on road.cc.
On top of that, there's also two boxes of Sponser's toothpaste-tube energy gel, which David's also had a go on and also rates. "Quick, easy and effective for a quick boost and a more sustained supply of energy", was his verdict. Again, there's one each for two lucky winners.
To enter, just comment below and tell us whether you're more of a gel kind of a guy/gal, or if you prefer your energy in bar form. Usual schwag grab rules apply and we'll pick a winner over tiffin next wednesday, assuming we remeber. We did last time… Good luck!
