Suunto Review Competition: Winners Announced
At the end of September Wiggle paired up with Suunto to give away 5x Suunto t3c HRM Training Computers worth £120 each for our favourite reviews created during September! Well again we have been inundated with many fantastic reviews.
We have now chosen our favorite 5 winners, so without further ado here are the lucky winners and their reviews…
Winner 1
Ian Sutcliffe reviewing the Crono Fluid ElastoGel Trainer
Winner 2
Alice Eliott reviewing the Adidas Adistar Gore Ladies Jacket AW08
“I bought this jacket to run in, attracted by the brand, the style, the sale price and the colour and I was not disappointed. It is light weight and bright enough to wear running and cycling. The pocket for my MP3 is perfect and the length is good although it could be a little longer for a 5″11 woman.”
Winner 3
David Bishop reviewing the Ronhill Vizion Beanie and Glove Set.
With the autumn/winter weather closing in and me being a relatively novice runner, I needed to add a hat and gloves to my ever growing kit. I found the Ronhill Vision Beanie & Gloves to be the best value deal on the day I made my purchase and as they are Ronhill I figured I couldn’t go wrong. I made the order and received the goods in super fast time, but not as fast as I scoffed my complimentary Haribo – thanks Wiggle.
Checklist:
- Beanie? check
- Gloves? check
- Visible to others when dusky? check
- Reflective? checkI have worn the gloves on several runs and they have kept me warm and comfortable. The hat is yet to make its debut, mainly because its not really been cold enough yet, but partly because I may have to wait until the darker nights draw in to be brave enough to wear it in public.
Now, I bought the medium/large size and it might be that I have a strange shaped head…. but…. to be fair to Ronhill I think its safer to say that I make this hat look bad rather than the other way around. Don’t get me wrong, running is not about the fashion, but this noggin-huggin beanie crosses that line between acceptable and “hey mum what’s wrong with that mans head?”. Anyway, it’s practical right?!?
Also, I tried to take a picture of my hands but couldn’t get both in shot as I had to hold the camera… so I put the gloves on my feet and took a picture that way. They don’t fit as well as on your hands, but having kept them on under my desk I can say that they are toasty warm. I haven’t attached the picture as it could be construed as unsavoury.
Winner 4
Ian Harper reviewing the Focus Cayo Ultegra 2009
Having covered over 3000 miles on my hybrid in 6 months I had managed to justify the investment in another bike as I could be sure I’d get the use out of it. This would allow me to have a racer for pleasure as well as some commuting and my hybrid for horrible days commuting and the winter. Having never had a racer before I looked into it quite a bit and was very attracted by the 1 week trial money back wiggle offer. The reviews were good and the level of spec matched bikes around £2000. At £700 less it left me some cash to invest in some more kit and a nice new light for winter and still have some cash left over.
Winner 5
Tim Zimmerman reviewing the Descente Classic 3/4 Bib Tights.
“Having never owned a pair of knickers or knee warmers, after buying these I want more pairs of the style.As it turns out, knickers are a FANTASTICALLY versatile garment. They protect sensitive knees with less risk of overheating than with full-length tights. They are typically comfortable into the high 60s.
Though, a few aspects of specifically these knickers need to be addressed: The pictures don’t do justice to the extent to which they are blue. They are a kind of blue someone would exclaim, “Dang, now that’s blue” upon seeing you in these knickers.
They’re blue like winter is cold: it’s blatantly obvious, no-one should need it pointed out to them, yet everyone WILL remark on just how blue these knickers are”.Read More!
