Barclays "London by Bike" Photo Contest Winners Announced

Who snapped the definitive photo of cycling in London?

With more than 1,000 people entered via Facebook, the results of Barclay's "London by Bike" photography competition, in which contestants were asked to submit a photograph that reflects cycling in the capital city, have finally been announced. 

Thomas Casey won the professional category with his shot of a road cyclist in Richmond Park. Professional photographer Dan Chippenham was the first runner-up with his shot of a cycling couple by the Millenium Bridge. Kris Matyskiewicz took the winning amateur shot of a cyclist, silhouetted against Big Ben and the London Eye. The amateur runners-up were Emily Dimmock and Florian Sokoll.

Winners of the contest will each receive a luxury cycling package from Barclays, including a £1,500 cycling kit, a stay at a five-star hotel, and a meal at Dinner by Heston Blumenthal. The winning shots will all be given away as postcards in 300 Barclays branches across London and the south-east.
