Hope you New Year is starting off well, get out and ride your bike, no excuses with this weather!
We are pleased to let you know that we have completed our second full year as a women's racing team! Congratulations to all of you! This was quite an exciting year with 6, yes SIX, of our team members competing in both STATE and NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP RACES!
Congratulations to our National Champ jersey winners, Margaret Thompson, Kim Celecki and Tami Lewis, and to our Junior State Champion in RR, TT & Crit, Charlsie Donnely, and to our Masters RR State champion, Shelley Reynolds!
Our team donation to Lourdes Mission in motion came to $2107.76 for the 2006 season! Awesome job everyone! It is getting tougher to earn the prize money as race promoters are cutting women's payouts due to low participation. If anyone is interested in giving racing a try, talk to any of us. Many of you have raced in the past, we love you to come back to racing! No matter what your ability is, there is always someone else out there at the same level.
Thank you all for your generous help at the races, at TVC event registrations and feed zones! We are always looking for more new members, so if you have any prospects, send them my email and I will fill them in on the details :)
I would like to get an idea to see if there is any interest in another sock order or embroidered cap sleeve t shirts, or sweatshirts. There is a place that does great embroidery 1 mile from my house. I can get fitted t-shirts or hooded sweatshirts with an embroidered logo over heart for around $20.
I found a sock company who can match our colors exactly, there are sending me samples, they are fairly new, but have rave reviews already (NLZ wear) Socks have to be ordered in a minimum of 100 pairs, we would like to sell them for $7 or $8 per pair as a fundraiser. Any interest! Let me know.
UNIFORMS: We have not yet placed our order since we have not received sponsorship replies yet. I will let you know when we are ready to put the order in so you can decide what items you may need.
Thanks,
Marsha Kapinus
