Maybe I Can Still Find A New Fatty Jersey

Published by djones at 10:19 am under Training

orange.gifJust as we all expected… Fantastic news as Fatty’s new jerseys sold out FAST.  He told us all they were on the way… when Twin Six would post them for sale… he even provided us with a link and updates.  Still… I’m sorry and a bit embarrassed that I missed out.  I work an early shift… at work by 3am.  So, I checked the Twin Six website around 3:15 yhst-35275391216072_2003_3002097.gif& 4am just for the heck of it.  But I missed out on the accidental early release of a few jerseys overnight.  For other crazy reasons, I couldn’t order one in time before the sellout.  So, I’m asking around.  Did anybody happen to buy an extra Medium?  If so, here’s my offer.  I will pay you the $70.00 for the jersey.  I will then send another $70.00 to Susan’s Win Fund.  Any takers?

    I also have a men’s version - similar to above that I rarely use.

    It’s XL though - but would swap or donate.

    If I had one I would take you up on that.

    Will & Chris–
    I appreciate it guys… we’ll keep trying. Maybe something will come through soon. I plan on helping Fatty and Susan.
    I know he has so many readers… but maybe this will help bring in some new people who will learn about his family’s story and Susan’s Win Fund.

    I have last year’s pink jersey and was thinking of getting the new one but was too slow. In fact, I have such a huge selection of jerseys it has become a fashion headache to pick the right one when I go for a ride. “I’m riding the Marinoni, so should I wear the green Tour of China climber’s jersey, or the contrasting Louis Garneau Canadian national jersey, or maybe the yellow Warsteiner one so that I remember to drink beer at the end of the ride.” Too many choices…

    So I just made a donation to Fatty’s website for Susan instead.

    Sprocketboy– WOW… looks like I need to ramp it up and get some more jerseys anyway. I only own six right now… Oh…and I do have two “retro” jerseys I held on to that I bought with my first nice bike in 1988.

    Ron– Yeah… when I ride hard or for a longer ride during the week I don’t get much recovery sleep. I try to get extra rest on weekends.

    I hope Sprocketboy doesn’t mind.

    Here’s a great photo of him in his Pink Fat Cyclist Jersey:
