Fine print:
This is a not-for-profit effort. One of my personal goals is to not end up being out of pocket in doing this.
Because of that, I have no room for error. I can't make refunds or changes to completed orders. I can't change sizes after I place the order.
This entire process will take a while. I've put a three week deadline for payment, and the company takes a about 6 weeks to make them.
Prices reflect paypal fees, postage from the company and postage to you, plus a bit for tape and labels and such.

Just a warning to those that will be buying- The sizing is a bit tight. I take a medium in Europen manufactures and they are just a bit loose. (Except for Assos who seem to think we are all 6ft tall and thin.) That Euro medium is a 38" chest and talking to CCCorlew-He suggested going by the medium sizing and not the 38". The medium in club cut is listed as a 42" and may have been a bit large as a 42. As a medium it fits perfectly. That is in Club cut. For those without a Gut- The race cut may be perfect.

And After 4? years of mine it still washes perfectly but it has shrunk a bit round the gut area:rolleyes::rolleyes:- So allow a bit of expansion room by getting the Club cut if your weight is beginning to be re-distributed.

And Thanks CCCorlew for taking the effort to re-arrange for the members again.

How to order a 50+ jersey or kit :

Not trying to be funny but could a PLUS 70 be special ordered?

BTW, red/white and black are my favorite colors too. ;)

I placed an order. I hope I did it right... the paypal thing and all, that is. I think I did because they sent an email confirmation.

Not trying to be snarky, but FAQ (http://ccorlew.blogspot.com/p/50-jersey-faq.html)

Yep, first order in!

Not trying to be snarky, but FAQ (http://ccorlew.blogspot.com/p/50-jersey-faq.html)

Thanks much, I found the answer here..

"Q: Will you make a 60+, or 70+ or whatever jersey?
A: I don't plan to. For me, the jersey is more about the forum and community here than some specific age."

Some of us here are a long way from 50. Wish it wasn't the case..:)

Just a short question:
If I use PayPal to send money, do I need an account? When I go to paypal.com, I have a couple choices to make: "Friends and Family" or "Buy Something", and then for each one there are a few payment methods, with different fees attached. Sorry to be dense, but which options should I be using?

You need to make an account and buy something, I think.

Yes, it's"buy something." And I did. :)

Club cut medium is 42". I am a 38" chest and Rather than go for the chest size- I went for the size jersey that I normally wear that is a Medium. I don't like jerseys skin tight but I don't like lots of baggy material either. Looking at the tables and I should have gone for a Small or Even XS. I never buy XS- even though I am smallish build so was going to order small. Conversing with CCCorlew and I went for the medium.

Before posting I checked the size on my jersey and it is Club Cut in Medium. I am a 38" chest but the Gut has expanded a bit but as you can see from the pic- the medium fits me.

I have read the entire thread, and the FAQ. Please consider *in the future* possibly doing this in a 5XL and/or a 6XL? Yes, higher costs are the Norm for these tent-sized objects, but some of us would really like them~! Some of us are are both Clyde/Athena and 50+ - and would LOVE to get one of these. Please explore this for the future orders? I do not know if you have tried in the past or not? I do understand that doing so in this order period is not an option.

5XL and/or a 6XL?

I'll check with the company that makes them and see. Right now the limits are xs and 4xl.

No worries, I understand. I am only hoping for the future :)

I'll be ordering, however, it may take me a little time as I'm not sure what! That plus I need to access a friends account at playpal and let them pay or create my own.

Hate Pay Pal but understand the need for it. Will see if my password still works or I have to spend a 1/2-hour trying to get into my Pay Pal account as per usual. ;)

Placed an order today under Bruce Landry
Paid as gift via paypal, hope that's okay.

Thanks,

Curtis, is the jersey you are wearing in this photo a race cut or a club cut? Thanks.

That's a club cut medium. Only in my dreams do i wear a race cut.
BTW, this photo makes me look a bit thinner than I really am. It must be the light and perspective. I wish I really was as thin as I look here.

Sorry about that, forgot to put my forum name in there....

Whenever I do this I'm always worried I won't get the minimum number of folks for the order, and I'll end up having to buy 2 or 3 for myself. We are well into swell territory now! Please look at the chart in the first post and make sure I've got you down for the right stuff.

How long will this be up? I'm thinking of buying my wife one and give it to her when she turns 50 next September...

* Orders close on Monday September. 26 2011 Don't send money after that!

Two more jerseys sold - for my wonderful ride partner and me!

Well, my wife is only 49, but I ordered her one anyway. I'm guessing she can legally wear it as soon as she's 49 1/2 :)

Good news: There are no jersey police.

Order Placed!

These will go with my original 50+ Jersey from the very first order, back when they were only ¾-zip.

Bike Forum name : tsl

Item ordered : Short Sleeve Summer Jersey $74
Cut : Nonono! Not Club. Mens Race, yes race
Size : XL

Item ordered : Wind Jacket $69
Cut : Mens
Size : XL

order placed and money sent

Unexpected bill. :( Maybe next time

Unexpected bill.

Bah. Let Bill pay for his own damned jersey. ;)

Order sent in for XXL club cut Short sleeve.

Wind jacket and bibs will complete my ensemble.... hmmm a 50+cycling cap would be jaunty wouldn't it?:innocent:

a 50+cycling cap would be jaunty wouldn't it?
The problem is that accessories have separate minimums. For example, I'd love to do socks, but the minimum is 50 pair.
That's a lot of socks! And what do I do if I collect money and then don't hit the minimum? It would cost money to return the payments, or I'd have to buy a bunch of socks.
Same as caps. The minimum isn't as high, but it's the same issue.

Perhaps taking a 'straw poll' of how many would buy a cap is in order? I know that I would buy one in a heart-beat.

Order sent Short sleve jersey club cut

From the photos of you and your wife, it appears that the women's jersey is NOT full zip. Is this the case? You had stated that the jerseys are now full zip and that is what I want, so hoping the photo just looks wrong.

Yep... that's what I figured. I was just baiting you. A navy blue option would be nice too!:)

I sent a payment with ordering information. I hope it was right.

The first orders I did were not full zip. I've changed over to full zip.

Last year I missed the order deadline and jdon sent me his "never-worn' model. He even sent it to me overseas. I gave the equivalent $$ to a charity. I believe that I am the only one in this country with this jersey. Next year I should be ready for another one. The short sleeves are great in hot weather (38C), but miserable in an Australian winter (10C) when I was touring there this past June-July.

Well I see that I still can't follow simple directions. Hparrish is Buzp on the forum. Sorry, hope I got everything else correct.

Ordered.

Just placed my order. Thank you Curtis!

I have all the order info current, so check!

I am shocked (shocked, I say) that there are 55 pieces ordered. And I was worried that I might not make the minimum...

Anyway, Monday is the cut off day, and I'll order shortly after that. Then we'll wait and wait and wait.
