Bianchi’s rule Tuesday ride – left the other bike in the dirt 😉

Hey SOBs.  The new jerseys are almost ready for ordering.  I want to thank the team that worked on designing these jerseys:  Joe S, Monica, Aku, Barbara M, Michael K, Dana R, Larry K.  Much appreciated.  Lots of emails.  There are 3 different jersey styles in both Mens and Womens.   We are getting a fit kit but it may not be here until the June 22 ride.  We will let you know when ordering is fully open.  Soon though!

The 3 different styles are Axis Club Fit, Axis Race Fit, and Velocity.  Velocity has mesh on the sides and the back of the neck so it is more intended for hot weather.  The mesh required slight design variations so be sure to understand what you are ordering.

Axis jerseys are $68.85 each at 10-25 quantity.  Velocity are $83.26 at same quantity.  We are assuming that we will get at least 10 orders for each style.  (Men / Women / Club / Race makes no difference but Axis vs. Velocity makes a difference)  If we do not get 10 orders then pricing will be higher.  However there is no minimum.

Axis jersey details

3 roomy back pockets provide plenty of storage for longer rides

Club fit = More relaxed fit.  Race fit = tighter fit, keeps fabric as close to skin as possible.

Ergonomic collar design provides comfort even when jersey is fully zipped

 Comfortable raglan sleeves, full length zipper

Reflective piping underneath back pockets provides maximum visibility in all conditions

Metric™ – Tightly knit polyester high-performance fabric provides excellent structure and moisture management in a sleek, visually appealing pattern. SPF 30 and a fast dry finish make this fabric comfortable in any climate.

TourTek™ – A lightweight, moisture-wicking Lycra® fabric that moves with the body to provide the ultimate fit and flexibility. SunSmart™ technology is built into the fabric so it won’t wash out; the fibers provide SPF 30+ protection of the harmful effects of both UVA and UVB radiation.

A polyester/Lycra® blended flat knit mesh with wide eyelet openings at neck and sides. This unique construction provides a combination of full coverage in a printable surface and excellent temperature regulation properties.  This is the primary differentiator between the jerseys.

Now for the best part – what do they look like?  (Please note difference in design of back for Axis vs. Velocity as shown below)
 
Note that the back of the Velocity (below) is different, having turquoise for the mesh on the back of the neck.  
We are working on finalizing the design of the arm warmers and bibs and shorts.  Probably in time to add to your jersey order.
