WE HAVE A WINNER!
The Secret Sound of Summer was guessed correctly by Nick Clayson this morning! Well actually it was his wife’s guess but she was too nervous to come on the phone. So what was the answer? ‘Adjusting the seat on a bike’… yes that’s the sound that’s been haunting you all this month!
Here’s the the moment when Nick won the cash…

THE CLUES!
AND HERE’S CLUE NUMBER THREE!!!
AND THE SECOND CLUE HAS BEEN UNVEILED!!!
It’s a sound
That when up or down
The noise it makes
Kind of grates
And on this place
You put not your face
With two wheels shall spin
Guess it and you win
AND THE FIRST CLUE HAS BEEN UNVEILED!!!
I want to try the secret sound, please call me
I agree with “the circus owner”, it really does not sound like that to me so congrats to the winner.
Sound of a bicycle seat being adjusted … WHAT the hell????
Guys, complaints about “not getting called” are so immature! It’s OBVIOUSLY random selection. it’s the way are run across the world in radio! Just because you send in “hundreds” of text messages doesn’t give you a higher chance as there were thousands, if not millions of text messages sent over the last 3 weeks. Pure maths, people! I think it was a fantastic competition and you should be congratulating the winner who won the draw, not complaining you didn’t when the chances were very, very VERY slim in the first place! Just makes you look like sore losers. Well Done to the winner! Lets do another secret sound tomorrow!
if you’re not happy with the mechanics or the system how the contest was done, then in the first place you had not participated then. The fact that you sent SMSs already means you agreed to the Terms and Conditions.
to disappointed: the SMS money – well, part of, if not all, goes to the winner.
follow me on twitter instead @socialmedubai
how do you know the winner had not texted in many times. I think crying “foul” just because you didnt win is childish and pathetic. you have no right to win.
no one has any right to win. its a competition. they choose the rules and it seems to me that plenty of people had a chance to get the answer but they got it wrong. well done to the winner. to the losers…why not try next time…?
You weren’t supposed to text the answer – just your name and Secret Sound. Perhaps they didnt call you because you were not able to follow basic instructions.
Get over yourselves … its a competition, luck of the draw, he won, you lost … congrats to Nick!!
guys, i didn’t win too – but, move on… what’s with the bitterness. regardless how they’ve done it – this game is by chance. if it’s not for you – it won’t.
i wonder how will you react in case you were the lucky one.
Better luck next time guys : ) Congrats to the winner
is it just me or the sound didnt sound like a bike seat being adjusted…??? :s
Congrats to the winner though
I am surprized to see the giant cloud of imagination from the people! So,I will be happy to give you the right answer! Ciprian 055-499 27 58

Hey Guys,
Ken Lewis here again. Really need the chance to win this.I Know what it IS. (gear cog that moves the chain the pedals are attached to). As i told you before. I’ve been Laid off from my job and ive been screwed by my ex employer. If i merit the chance to answer this secret sound contest, a portion of it will go to feeding and helping a couple of Labor camps that i have had the privilege of working with who have had their sponsors abandon them with out paying them for 6 months.I would be able to pay my rent and clear my credit card debit. Give me a shout in the morning Guys. Blessings to ya,
Ken Lewis

Cheers!
Before any of the clues were released, I knew the answer all along, but I wasn’t able to share my answer with the rest of Dubai because unfortunately even after the numerous sms’s that i’ve sent I was never called back. I’ve been tearing out my hair out roots and all for the last couple of days now so Please, please please give me the oppertunity to share my answer with the rest of Dubai and allow me to be the first call back on tomorrow mornings show.
Anxious and frustrated….
YESSSSSSSSSSSS!!! i am very much sure what the sound is, even though i heard it only once. Give me a chance please………….050-8534525
