A Great Stocking Filler - Club Cycling Kit

Adrian "Captain Clothing" Thornley writes from the North Pole about the arrival of the latest Team Kit.  Santa has just done the stocktake.

Dear All

.

As you maybe aware I took the courageous step of ordering both winter and summer kit, for delivery in December! My reason for ordering summer kit now is very simple. For cycle clothing manufacturers their busiest time of year is the New Year, this way I hopefully have some stock today rather than desperately waiting during the early months of 2010. Additionally those of you who have been after kit in early Spring know there tends to be a rush so hopefully this will alleviate that, (Ed -  and ensure that you are all in Team Kit for the Sportive) . Finally it beats the increase in VAT (Ed - smart move).

.

Just to alert you to a couple of items, the Bib Tights this year are blue, rather than the previous black, and prices have gone up for some items namely the Bib Tights and Mens Waisted Shorts. Additionally this time Biemme have cut the Gillets differently, so they eliminated the bagginess at the front that some of you previously commented on.

Parents, you’ll notice that I have ordered quite a bit of Kids clothing. I know team kit is a popular present (Yippee) , so if you are looking for a last minute something for Christmas here is your chance! Again I’m afraid the prices of these have gone up, so unfortunately that doesn’t help the family budget.

.

Finally I have written to everyone who pre –ordered and whose email address I still have. For some people I have your order but I have lost your email address e.g. Ritchie Dixon, Dave McClelland, so if you have pre-ordered and I haven’t been in touch can you drop clothing@teammk.org an email and I’ll sort you out.

.

Happy Christmas
