The wonderfully Weekly

Long term readers of this blog will know that I have a contempt for a certain Weekly Cycling magazine (I'm not going to tell you which one of course).

WIN a signed team Sky jersey and Gatorade hydration pack!

Gatorade, the world’s most researched sports drink, has recently become a key supporter of cycling in the UK, becoming the official nutrition partner to Team Sky, British Cycling and the Great Britain Cycling Team. Gatorade is also fuelling the Sky Ride programme – a series of mass participation cycling events which aim to get one million more people cycling regularly each month across the UK.

Gatorade has been fuelling Team Sky at the tour this year and prior to the race have been working with Team Sky’s Nutritionist, Nigel Mitchell to ensure the team have the best products, means of delivery and support, including support from Dr Ian Rollo of the Gatorade Sports Science institute.

To mark Gatorade’s work with Team Sky and their phenomenal efforts during the Tour de France, Gatorade have teamed up with Cycling Weekly to offer one lucky reader the chance to win a signed Team Sky tour jersey signed by the entire tour team and all British riders, as well as a Gatorade Hydration Pack and Team Sky TT bottle and carbon fibre bottle cage.

To enter simply answer the following question

Who is Team Sky’s team nutritionist?

Now, all pretty straightforward and I have to say very tempting. Now for the punchline - where might one send their entry for said SKY competition I wonder? Well, and no word of a lie (it's in print) -
