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?

Spring. For the crisp, clear mornings that warm up.

Late spring when you can cast off the heavier winter gear and start to enjoy the fruits of these cold/damp/frozen/hail pocked winter miles.

Summer, boring and obvous - but think of the reasons why! Warm, short sleeves, shorts, no rain jackets, no under helmets, no overshoes, no washing the bike after every ride no matter how short. Good the be alive and on two wheels days!

I prefer spring - not too cool not to hot, and you have daylight for the evening ride.

It's a close call between Autumn & Spring for me, but I'm gonna plump for the crispy cool but sunny Spring ones !

A really warm summer day makes me feel like I'm doing Tdf and pushing my limits a bit more.

Got to love the Autumn, not for the onset of winter, just the sheer delight of cycling in average temperatures with some absolutely beautiful scenery and colours.

Deepest darkest winter - Leave for work in the dark - go home in the dark. Riding in the wind and the rain feeling like a god damn superhero

Winter - Get to cycle through the woods in the dark and ride past all the cars stuck in the snow

A crisp, dry and bright WINTER 's day.

There is no better time to hit the hills. The views are unencumbered by any hazy mist, the grip on the road is exceptional, and you dont sweat buckets climbing your favourite roads.

Late Autumn, early winter, so late November early December. I love cycling in the cold, enjoy the freshness after a warm summer, the landscape can be seen and not hidden by vegetation. And during early winter I've not had enough of the cold yet.

Summer or WInter
Hate this time of year, too warm to wear the proper winter gear, too wet & windy for the summer stuff.

And leaf mulch is bloody slippy  20
