We have a Vulpine Schwag Grab winner!

Someone's walking off with some top Autumn gear - is it you?...

My word people like the idea of free Vulpine Schwag, over 1200 of you commented in to tell us your favourite cycling season, all bases were covered but early indications are that summer was the winner. And the winner of the Vulpine Harrington Rain Jacket, Cotton Rain Trousers, Long Sleeve Merino Alpine, and Short Sleeve Polo? Well that's…

jimbocrimbo

Who despite what his name might suggest likes cycling in the early autumn best.

Congrats to the winner, who will be getting his fancy clobber soon (well before Chrimbo) and commiserations to the 1,276 of you who lost out. Fret not though we'll have another chance to win some top quality cycling schwag coming your way… Soon.

In the meantime you can console yourself by popping over to  Vulpine to think about what might have been season?

Spring for me, when you start to see all that winter training pay off.

It has to be Winter. Love cycling on those dark cold afternoons, with snow on roads and a little slide here and there. The full moon reflected on the snow at night. Just amazing.

Spring, getting back out in the warmer days with less gear.

Autumn. Leaves are falling and the air is clean and crisp. Beautiful.

The first ride of the year in shorts and a short sleeve jersey. This is, of course, likely to be closer to Summer than Spring.

Any season other than winter. Though Autumn can be cracking.

I love riding all year round, but you can't beat a crisp winter's day with the sun shining and hard frozen trails.

When it doesn't rain... Spring and autumn. Can't beat the light and the fresh dry feeling in the air! Until the sun goes down...

And when it does? hmm...

Spring as you have the warm months ahead, Autumn as fitness levels are high after the summer.

My favourite season for cycling is Summer, possibly in Italy, but if I win this kit my favourite season will become Winter no problem.

Summer just about edges it for me. A crisp autumnal ride with just enough chill to make you feel alive pushes it close, but long evenings, easy warmth and the landscape in its prime make summer the season for me.

Late spring, when the sunshine feels like a treat, but its brisk enough to feel fresh.

Autumn, the warm sea breeze makes for lovely weather (when it doesn't rain).

Autumn, not too hot, but watch out for those wet leaves on the road.

I like spring, crisp air which burns the lungs as you warm up in the sunshine. whilst coughing up crap at the top of the first climb.

Winter. Blue skies, bright sun and frosty. Favourite weather by miles.

Got to be Autumn, the awesome effect of the leaves changing colour and the chance to bring the workhorse bike out after it's cruel banishment to the shed. feels like the training for next year begins in autumn and the bonus of the occasional hot day!.
