PrintJust a couple quick notes... on the kit shipping, everything that went through a standard order (via Google checkout) has gone out. If you ordered this way and haven't gotten an email notification, contact me. Some will start arriving as soon as today; others, esp. Europe, as late as end of next week. [Canada supposedly takes six to ten business days, but I could float a package to BC faster than that.] Please make sure everything is correct and contact me at chris[at]podiumcafe.com if it isn't, or if you don't see something in two weeks. Don't email back to the notification if you want my immediate attention. Thanks!
Also, who's that Douglas guy on the front page? You may have figured out already, that's dansel, now employing his full name, and now officially coming on board as our third formal staffer. Douglas will cover a wide variety of stuff; it's really just a matter of three people being better than two right now, as opposed to having him take over one specific area. Anyway, Jen and I are very, very, very pleased to welcome Douglas to the team!

it deserved to be made twice.

It's the cafe equivalent
of dressing up with a Groucho moustache and cigar.
Yay! Happydance!
And thanks to Blez for helping out with getting us some funding to make it happen.

Yeah, happy dance indeed!
Thanks to Blez, Thanks to Chris and Jen for giving me a really cool opportunity. And for helping a grad student with a bike racing addiction support said addiction!
You’ll be seeing a lot more of me now. Like something going up in the AM… ;)

I thought we agreed to drop the "G"? Did I miss a reinstatement?
and what is this zipper story about?
by JustJoshinYa on Dec 9, 2011 11:31 AM EST up reply actions
didn't get the memo on the G if there was one
standard zippers have a locking mechanism of sorts that make it so unless you’re pulling on the tab, it won’t come undone. these zippers, if you flip the tab up, that locking mechanism is disengaged. you can grab each side of the collar, pull them apart, and the zipper come undone. not sure what the benefit is (maybe makes it easier to take off a jacket while riding), but it’s cool.

Did you mean George Hincapie spHorts, or something? Because I don’t get the (Glorious or otherwise) Heinrich Haussler connection.

i saw a video of him yesterday
posted by castelli maybe. where he discovered that this kits did the same thing. let me see if i can find it.
