Rapide RC1 road bikeRapide RC1 competition: we have a winner!
We had a fantastic response to our Rapide RC1 competition, after all who wouldn't want to win a great new road bike worth £1,199 for doing not much at all? In the end, over 8,000 of you stuck your names in the hat. Hey, it's better odds than the lottery...
There's only one prize though, so there can only be one winner. Although in a sense, you're all winners*. And that winner is Chris Haynes, who seems chuffed to bits that he's bagged a new bike. As you would be.
Don't worry if you missed out, there's always stuff to win. Even now, you can stick your name in the hat to win a set of Aftershokz wireless bone-conducting headphones. And with less than 1,500 people entered and five sets to give away, your odds aren't bad. Not bad at all.

It looks like it only adds two miles to walk from the Castleton car park.
