Header 23.8.19 via @Spyyyyke#MyCyclingWeekend with Decathlon - The Vuelta begins!
Our header comes via @Spyyyyke
Our favourite grand tour of the year, La Vuelta starts this weekend and Decathlon are helping us celebrate with brand new prizes for the duration of the race.
The Vuelta is the most laid-back of the three grand tours and it's a strange mix of riders that need to make something out of their season and riders that give you the impression that they'd rather be elsewhere.
It's a mix that creates a half-interested peloton which, when mixed with brutal finishing climbs, makes for plenty of breakaway days that keeps the race interesting.
To celebrate the leader's red jersey, Decathlon are putting up a red B'Twin 600ml bottle and matching red Triban 500 bottle cage.
That should help you stay hydrated as you tackle your very own Angrilu-style climbs!
To win, all you need to do is upload a pic from your weekend ride to Instagram and use #MyCyclingWeekend in the caption. While you're there, head to @DecathlonUK_Cycling and give them a follow.

Drivers have spoken ...
I do too. It's a 'real world' read fill of people doing real world riding instead of a glossy lightweight brochure for spenders and dreamers....
