We have a winner for the Vulpine Schwag Grab!
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.
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.

Jens Voigt.
In the pro peleton, my favourite has got to be Jens Voigt. I get he impression he was born to cause other cyclists to look on despondantly as he gets another case of "OK legs, lets do this" pain dishing attitude.
Outside of the peleton, Danny Macaskill- how the hell does he do what he does?
Jens Voight
Bradley Wiggins
Got to be Cancellera - yum!
Contador
Iron man Sean Kelly

I'm a fan of Cav for pure speed and class but also Voeckler
Pantani
Jan - for getting on her bike for my sake
Cav
Voeckler, for his efforts in clinging on to yellow in last year's TdF.
Steve Peat, the mountain biker was an animal
Chris Hoy - determined, dedicated, yet makes it look effortless.
Tom Simpson
despite the fact that he also commentates on football Ned Boulting. A MAMIL who is proud of his Lycra collection, that takes more courage than asking LA why he is paranoid about USADA.
Nick Hussey of course....

Gino Bartali.
Can't be anyone other than Merckx: went for the win in every race, right through out the season.
Bernard Hinault, still aggressive today !
Tommy Godwin.
The all-time endurance world record holder. 75,065 miles in one year, and 100,000 in 500 days, thats 200 miles every day for 500 days. All this on a 30lb clunker with a hub gear in 1939, after which he got off his bike and went to war. They bred people tough in those days. If he was Italian he would be a household name.
Mayjor Taylor!
Fumiyuki Beppu
Eddie Merckx of course
Graeme Obree
Among the pros, too many to choose just one - so I'm going to go for my best buddy Rich, even if he did talk me into a whole world of pain in Flanders!
Stephen Roche
Robert Millar
Steven Roche, for that moment in the mist, and Phil Liggits commentary
cavendish=so good when he popos up at the death to beat them all
