Hi All,
Even though school has been out for sometime, Rutgers Cycling has been
trucking along preparing for the Fall season.
Some updates:
1. Our clothing has arrived! Yay! If you have not received your clothing
yet or would like to place an order, please contact our clothing guru
Don at don.yungher@...
2. New Sponsors! In January, we brought on Maul Electric, Inc. as a
sponsor of Rutgers Cycling. Most recently, we have just signed an
agreement with Efinger Sporting Goods (www.efingersports.com), located
in Bound Brook, NJ, to come on as our official bike shop sponsor. Look
for further announcements regarding bike and frame sponsors shortly.
Efinger's joins a long list of proud RU Cycling sponsors including: Maul
Electric, Inc. (www.maulelectric.com), Pacific Health Labs, Inc.
(www.accelerade.com), Verge Sport (www.vergesport.com), Jamis
(www.jamisbikes.com), and Cycle-Smart (www.cycle-smart.com). Rutgers
Cycling is still looking for sponsors for the 2006-07 season, please
contact me if you are interested in learning more about sponsorship
opportunities.
3. Blog updates. We've been busily writiting up race and ride reports.
Come check them out at www.rutgerscycling.blogspot.com
4. Racing. The 2006-07 RU Cycling season kicks off next week with an
early season cyclocross race under the lights in Augusta, NJ at the
Sussex County Fairgrounds. This event is part of the NJ State Fair and
offers a great opportunity for the team to gain exposure for the team
and our sponsors. The team will be out in force! Other upcoming races
include RU at the 24 hours of Allamuchy MTB race in September. We'll be
fielding an all single speed 4 person team!
5. Riding. Members of Rutgers Cycling ride every Saturday and Sunday at
9 AM from Highland Park Cyclery in Highland Park. The pace ranges from
18-20 MPH with usually some climbing. If you are in the area, come check
it out!
6. Alumni and supporters. What can we, as a team, do to keep you best
informed? What would you like to see Rutgers Cycling do for its alumni?
I think that's all.
