We have a winner for the Vulpine Schwag Grab!

Lots of you told us who you favourite cyclist was not it's time to find our winner...

My word that was a popular Schwag Grab and a very interesting read too, but all good things must come to an end and now it's time to find out who will be walking awy with  a stylish Vulpine Soft Shell Jacket AND a Vulpine Merino Button jersey AND a Merino T-Shirt. The random-number-o-meter has been cranked up and the fickle finger of fate has done its pointy schtick and the winner is…

Antonio

Like a lot of you, Antonio's favourite cyclist is Mark Cavendish. A bundle of stylish, technical cycle wear will be winging its way to him asap.

Our lucky winner gets to pedal off with some top class clobber from Vulpine's range of stylish, performance oriented clothing that's technical enough to meet the demands of almost any form of cycling, yet casual enough to work off the bike in equally demanding social environments.

We were well impressed in our reviews of their Merino T and Merino Button jerseys… we've also got the Vulpine SoftShell in on review, but that's being done by Vecchiojo and he's an artist so can't be rushed although it's rumoured to be on the way any day now.

And because we enjoyed this competition so much we're going to run another with some more Vulpine goodies really soon, so fret not if you didn't win this time around.

To find out more about Vulpine visit their website www.vulpine.cc and for the Vulpine view on what's going to happen at the Tour next week visit their blog.

The man who inspired me as a teenager in the early 1990's to get on a bike, Big Mig! The fact we share the same birthday and he was from Pamplona where I have family was also a clincher. I was even lucky enough to meet Indurain at the San Fermin festival in 1999.  1

My young lady Judith. Petite, sweet but unstoppable on a long ride and a good climber.

Jens Voigt is by far the funniest and hardest rider out there.

As a recent follower of pro-cycling, Cavendish for his speed, showmanship, and drive, if you'll excuse the pun.

There's so many how do I pick. Cancellara descending in yellow. Contador taking flight in the giro. Bradley on a TT bike. Cavendish on the Champs élysées. Robert Miller. David Millar. "it's Stephen Roche". Greg Lemond. Dean Downing. Chris Hoy. Jason Kenny.
