We have a winner! VIP hospitality for Halfords Tour Series in Chester tomorrow

Last chance to win VIP tickets and enjoy top notch Tour Series racing in the lap of luxury

Well, the random number generator has done it's business for the last time in the 2010 Halfords Tour Series, and the lucky winner of a pair of VIP hospitality tickets is... Sphide, who lives just across the border from Chester in Wrexham, going by their user profile.

Sphide went along last year and said it's worth going to even without the VIP treatment - well, hopefully tomorrow a great time will be had the other side of the velvet rope.

Thanks to all who took part in our competitions during the Tour Series, and obviously keep an eye out for other Schwag Grabs here on road.cc throughout the year!

==========

Two rounds to go in this year’s Halfords Tour Series, and that means there's just one last chance for a lucky road.cc user to win a pair of VIP hospitality tickets up for grabs for MONDAY's race in Chester thanks to the generosity of the Halfords Tour Series organisers. Yes, we said Monday not Tuesday, round 9 of the Tour Series will be on Monday so that TV coverage can go out on Tuesday and doesn't clash with Wednesday night's big England game.

The tickets give you fantastic views of the start and finish line, meaning you can watch some top-notch racing action and cheer on the home team, the none other than our own Kuota-road.cc. Your prize also includes the chance to enjoy some fine food beforehand, with a free bar open before and during the race. Hospitality opens at 5.30pm, so you’d need to get to Chester by then or shortly after, with racing getting under way at 7pm.

The prize, which is for two people, includes:

• Exclusive views of the finish line and end-of-race podium presentations

• Buffet Dinner with accompanying wines
• Complimentary bar (alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages)
• Tea and coffee served all day
• A few words from Tour Series Chief Executive, Hugh Roberts or Technical Director, Mick    Bennett

• Official Tour Series programme
• Experienced hostess and wait staff to ensure the smooth running of your day.

To enter, just put make a comment in the thread below – normal road.cc competition rules apply, so only one entry per person, and good luck. We’ll be drawing the lucky winner’s name at a later-than-usual tea time on Sunday so make sure you're contactable … ahem, out of work hours, or check back on Sunday, which of course you'd do anyway.

road.cc's founder and first editor, nowadays to be found riding a spreadsheet. Tony's journey in cycling media started in 1997 as production editor and then deputy editor of Total Bike, acting editor of Total Mountain Bike and then seven years as editor of Cycling Plus. He launched his first cycling website - the Cycling Plus Forum at the turn of the century. In 2006 he left C+ to head up the launch team for Bike Radar which he edited until 2008, when he co-launched the multi-award winning road.cc - finally handing on the reins in 2021 to Jack Sexty. His favourite ride is his ‘commute’ - which he does most days inc weekends and he’s been cycle-commuting since 1994. His favourite bikes are titanium and have disc brakes, though he'd like to own a carbon bike one day.
