We have a Vulpine Schwag Grab winner!

Someone's walking off with some top Autumn gear - is it you?...

My word people like the idea of free Vulpine Schwag, over 1200 of you commented in to tell us your favourite cycling season, all bases were covered but early indications are that summer was the winner. And the winner of the Vulpine Harrington Rain Jacket, Cotton Rain Trousers, Long Sleeve Merino Alpine, and Short Sleeve Polo? Well that's…

jimbocrimbo

Who despite what his name might suggest likes cycling in the early autumn best.

Congrats to the winner, who will be getting his fancy clobber soon (well before Chrimbo) and commiserations to the 1,276 of you who lost out. Fret not though we'll have another chance to win some top quality cycling schwag coming your way… Soon.

In the meantime you can console yourself by popping over to  Vulpine to think about what might have been season?

Time of year never really matters when it comes to cycling. If I were to choose it would be spring and autumn.early morning or summer evening.

winter - orange hued skylines, empty roads with fewer cars, crisp mornings and being able to see steam rise off your body when you stop after a hard base ride.

Early autumn when you still have evening light for a post work ride but it starts getting chilly.

I'm definitely one for Spring rides. None of that having to force myself out in the cold and rain, but nice and cool to encourage harder efforts without the discomfort of Summer heat. Roll on the Spring!

Summer, plenty of light to be cycling before or after work.

Winter. Crisp frosty mornings, crunch of snow under tyres, seeing breath in the air

Summer. Warm, sunny evenings going out to explore new places without having to bring wet weather gear. Sun-dappled trees. Fellow road users being easy going, and fewer cars.

Spring for the optimism of a coming season,
Summer for the warmth, light and longer days
Autumn for the colours of life
Winter to cut through the endless greys.

Very early spring is definitely a favourite; the ice and snow are gone and the promise of the new season picks you up and gives you a kick of speed.

I love early spring - that day that you realise winter has released its grip and the sun actually has a bit of warmth in it. You start fantasising about the months of cycling in the *warmth* that lie ahead.

It has to be spring. That first early morning ride, when the air smells fresh and the sun actually feels warm on the back of your neck...
