I entered the Easton competition a few times during the Tour, and can't find a list of winners or who won Cadel's wheels.

I guess I would have heard by now if it was me ? :D

Anybody any idea?

Thanks Peter.
Odd that this is only half the list. :confused:

I thought these things had to be made public within a few weeks.

I wonder if a member of the cyclingnews team could perhaps answer the question?

When I asked in the Feedback/website forum, they took the time to delete my thread, rather than to just answer it!

Do I need to ask Easton directly ? :rolleyes:

They can't because they are all out training on their new Easton wheels :D

I'm sure if any of us won we would have heard.

LOL !!!

Regardless of whether we would have heard, I think its still a rule (perhaps law) that they publish the names of all the winners. Especially the "grand prize"

Its been weeks now. And i'm beginning to smell a rat.

Hi All

I am one of the many winners to win the Easton wheels. I have to admit I entered every single day in the hope I would get something, and I won a pair of EC90SL!

There was an issue with Q16 where there appears to be 2 possible answers. The prize for that question was originally given but it transpired that there was another possible answer following a complaint. All those people that had given the alternative answer got thrown in a hat and my name was drawn!

Thanks to Cycling News and Easton my bike now sports some gorgious wheels. Not yet ridden them as the weather here has been very grim.

Below are the Q&A's for all stages.
