I saw some cool Starbucks cycling jerseys during STP and was wondering where I could score one of those? Anyone know?

Get a job at Starbucks and join their cycling team.
I've seen the Starbucks team at a few events this year, and it's usually a long and very organized paceline moving a lot faster than me.

(I haven't seen them for sale anywhere, so I'm pretty sure it's a team-issue jersey)

i think they're a local racing team - so you'd have to join them to get one.

Yep, they're a local racing team that's been around for a year or two. I don't think they have any relationship to the older "doubleshot" team of a few years ago. They seem like a nice group of people and I think anyone can join.

Ahh, got it. I'll have to check it out. I'm from out on the East Coast though. Maybe I can be their lone EC rider.

I have a friend who is a manager for them. He told me once that he could get me one of the jersies from the employee store. You might check with your local Starbucks and see if they can/will help you.

If you are an employee at the HQ, it is available in the company store.

Thanks! I'll go and ask my local Starbucks and see if someone's willing to help me out. Starbucks should offer that online...

Another option is to hit the Seattle Swap meet, usually held in late February. A lot of prior season team jerseys are sold there at cut rate prices.(late in the day there were some good ones left at $2 each) I Don't recall seeing a Starbucks but its worth a shot. Here's their info link but it hasn't been updated with 2009 info yet. http://www.pazzovelo.com/events/bike_swap.shtml
