FWIW, and not to pile on here, but I get the same screen as Javier and Dennis, without the links under the Kissena Cycling Club Store banner...

Then you should call the same number Marc...

Javier, Dennis and anyone else getting the same screen shot as we are (without hyperlinks to the ordering pages), I've emailed Beth at Champ Sys and will report back here as soon as I learn more.

I have a legit question. Are we not offering the Neoprene Tech Fleece Jacket?

http://champ-sys.com/cycling/cycling-collection/jackets/custom-cs-neoprene-cstech-fleece-jacket.html#.UgAcFGTza0A

I have one of these in the old design and it is the warmest thing I owned. No need for many layers, just a base and this and you're good to go even under 20 degrees. The Thermo Shield Jacket looks nice but doesn't look as warm...and I'm kind of a wuss in the cold.

@Jules

Thanks for posting the bottle order online. It makes it easier for non-brooklyn folks like myself to get a bottle.

My pleasure. You'll still have to get yourself to Bkln to pick 'em up though!

Understood. Last they were all gone by the time I was able to get one!

NOTE ON BOTTLES: you need to fill out the form and complete the payment via PayPal.

A couple of people have filled out the form and not completed payment - I have no way of knowing if this is intentional or not.

We won't order bottles that aren't paid for.

I know this isn't the thread for quips and props (feel free to delete this; I'm not going to ask Jules how many bottles I will need in October on a 85 mile ride that averages 19.2 mph. I won't do it.), but I just wanted to say these bottles work awesome and look tight too.

And for $5, a steal. Thanks for hooking this up.

Happy to help @Owens

I was a little heartbroken to toss my new L&C bottle at the feedzone... It's always good to have a couple of crappy bottles specifically for races with a feed... The more out of town races you do the more you'll need

Jules,

1. That is what pockets are for.

2. Always write your name or initials and club initials on the bottle.

3. Always toss bottle at someone who knows to expect it.

4. Arguably, a Kissena bottle will be easier to get returned to a Kissena member.

I used to keep a stock of 40-50 bottles for the reason you mentioned. Racing in the 1-2's meant that on a weekend of out-of-town racing I could potentially lose 10 bottles. It happened on rare occasions, but I did make sure to minimize the likelihood by making friends with a feeder.

Also, these days, there are often bottle drops just past feedzones and the bottles are often brought back to the staging area post race. And if your broke and short of bottles, you can often replenish this way as some people don't reclaim their bottles.
