Tuscan-White-Roads-compoWin a pair of Reynolds Attack Wheels and a holiday to try them out on!
It's January so it's the traditional time to start planning your cycling exploits for the year while it's murky and cold out. A trip to Italy would be nice, yes? To Tuscany, to ride the famous Strade Bianche? And how about if you could have some flash new wheels into the bargain? Well, you're in luck. Well, one of you is.
Rpm90, purveyors of fine road cycling tours, are running a weekend in Tuscany this April (18-21 April), based in the stunning hilltop village of Radda in Chianti. You'll get three days of the finest Tuscan riding with a support crew, and three nights of top Italian cuisine. All this would normally set you back £895 but Rpm90 have a place up for grabs in their compo. What's more, they've teamed up with Reynolds, who supply their neutral service wheelsets, to offer a free set of Attack Carbon clinchers worth £1099.99 into the bargain. That's a prize worth just shy of two grand. They'll even pay for your flights. How great is that?
To enter, head over to the Rpm90 website or visit Upgrade at the London Bike Show this weekend, stand LB1120. They'll be picking a lucky winner out of the hat on 1 March. You'll need to be available to swan out to the continent between Thursday 18 and Sunday 21 April, too, because that's when the holiday is.
You can comment below if you want, but it ain't going to help you. Just sayin'.

Looks like Specialized dusted off their blueprint for the Tarmac circa 2012-14 to 'create' the Aethos.

That is a sweet deal... The Wheels look great... If you need parking amenities at the airports of UK give mobitairportparking.co.uk a shot.
I will take you with me
Yes please! (Have entered by the way!)
hup!
I know (a) that commenting here has no effect on the draw; and (b) they're largely fishing for contact details, but I'm a sucker for competitions, even though I'm not going to win.
My husband would love me forever if I gave him new wheels. Well, for a few more years anyway. I properly love Italy as well. How romantic is that?
oh goodness, i read it, what have i done?
yezz of course please
Don't think I should enter, I mean if I win I'd miss my own wedding
I couldn't think of a better reason TO enter
woof
(I did read the article, I just thought I'd post as well)
The site says 'Flights from UK airport to Pisa and return included.' hopefully including your bike. You will need travel insurance and some flapjacks.
So no sob story, I will chance my arm.
I am open for prize
The competition page says...
"Flights from UK airport to Pisa and return included"
Yes please.
Si, per favoure. Coppi, Basso, Bartoli, Cipollini, Pantani......
Roadcc do you ever get upset that people don't read your full articles?
I know but I'm not bothered. Just gives me a greater of winning?

(shhh.. me too!)
it's a pavlovian response now - see competition, post comment
Pavlovian response to the word 'Win' in the headline
I think its quite funny, Don't point anything out to them and they shall think, OOOOO better chance, only 18 replies
Pretty please with sugar on!
Help me go faster!
'You'll have to find your own way out to Italy but that's no great hardship, is it?'
Not for me sadly, I would definitely have some hardship at the moment getting to Italy.
Reminds me of a time about 14 years ago now that my Mum called and told me that 2 of my sisters were getting married next year at the same time... in the Dominican Republic and could I afford to come? The wedding/holiday package was about £3000 and I was earning £7500 a year (pre minimum wage.)
By the end of the year I had about fifteen hundred so I did InterRail for a month instead.
They did have a UK reception though 'for anyone who couldn't make it.'
Arr, the 90's, so long ago.
YES PLEASE
Just the motivation I need, yes please.
This is the one for me, and it must be my turn.
Easter in Italy, oh yes.
You can count me in!
