The Kits

Thanks so much to Jo at Tineli for working in her own time today to shoot through the pictures! Thanks Jo!

This is the new Kit, the orange in real life is more vivid and the blue a little darker, but this is close.

I also forgot there are wind vests available as well!






2015 Coffee Grinder Kit Order Open!

Hi all,

The 2015 order for Grinder Kit is now open, I was hoping to have a picture of all the kits available to add to this message but it hasn't come through from Tineli just yet...
There will be the original Black jersey, the White jersey in short and long sleeve, the Pink jersey and the original Black bibs to go with all these.
There is a new jersey that's predominantly orange to be more visible and basically stays the same style as the original. There's also a matching bib short for this jersey available.
There will be gloves, arm warmers and cycling caps available also.

For sizing you can visit this address http://custom-cycling-jerseys.com/sizes.html or if you know somebody ask to try theirs on.
Prices are dependent on the number of items we sell. An item is a jersey, a pair of gloves etc. If we get to 100 items the discount is substantial and can save up to $20-$30 on a jersey alone; see how we go. To add to this we need a minimum of 10 items for each style or cut of an item. This means for say a ladies white long sleeve jersey we need 10 of them ordered for them to go ahead. A men's long sleeve is a different cut so we would need 10 of them also. So in saying that there is no guarantee that what you want will go into production. I'll keep people up to date with the orders progress though. For an idea though work on about $75 for a jersey and $75 for bibs.
As soon as I have the updated pictures I will post them out/up straight away.
The order will be open for a few weeks to allow for working out numbers but please order as soon as you can so we can work out numbers and see what items may not go ahead.
Please email mark.ruthenberg63@gmail.com with you order or if you have a query.


Cheers

Mark

The Basics

It would seem that GRC and Main Roads has forgotten how to mow the grass along the side of many of our roads (or they're trying to set a new level for the Highest Grass on the side of the road for the Guinness Book of Records). No doubt someone had a great idea on cost cutting  somewhere along the way....
Anyway I just had a report of some slashing operations spotted this morning down near Coffs Harbour deep in Cockroach land. They have a slasher that cuts the grass, no big deal you say, well right behind it is another vehicle with a big arsed blower on it blowing any debris from the slasher back off the road.....just imagine.
Well done NSW and pretty much everywhere else in Oz...

Champion!

Mick England is off to Ballarat this weekend  to contest the Oz National Road Race Championships. This sounds impressive sure, but when you throw in the fact that he's riding against the likes of Cadel Evans, Richie Port and a host of other aussies that ride in Pro teams, it gives it some real perspective on just how much talent Mick has.
Mick best of luck this weekend and I hope the race plan comes together for you :-)

Coffee Grinder 2015 Order

Hi all,

This has been looming for a while now but we'll be opening up a new order most likely next week for those wanting to buy some new kit. The usual gear will be available plus a new 'special edition' design for 2015.
Price is dependent on numbers so the more 'items' we buy the cheaper the clothing, 1 item can be a pair of gloves so it adds up really quickly. Once we reach 100 items that's when we reach max discount; something worth achieving $$$.
I'll post up some choices as soon as the new deign is finalised.
If you want some kit straight away Tineli at Noosa have some Grinder stock on hand and will look after you directly. Contact me for there number if you can't find it yourself.

On another note I have the feeling that by the end of January the 100k rides on a Saturday morning will be up and running again :-) Stay tuned.
