Amici Veloci - SHIPPED TODAY

I admit it, I'm a little jealous. Especially of the armwarmers, 'cause, like, I don't have any and they're way kewl. But, like jeannierides, the timing just wasn't right for me. If you ever do this again, can you do it when I've got spending money?

Thanks for the suggestion but I don't leave the house in sleeveless gear.

If those of you who did the order know of someone who might want it but missed the ordering deadline, let me know.

Wow, the jerseys came out fabulous!

The wms medium short-sleeve club cut fits me pretty much perfectly, yay ! And it looks stylin'

The wms med sleeveless race cut is, um, okay - I hate that lower elastic though ! I can get used to it, maybe, or take remedial measures (snip!)

The wind vest is particularly striking, but like Kim, I ordered a unisex small and I wish I went with the medium - it's way too snug in the hips for my liking, rats! So I might be parting with that, reluctantly.

Great job SK, snap, spazz - a beautiful design!

And thanks to the good people at Oregon HQ for sending them out so promptly!

I'm going to take my race cut sleeveless off to the alterations folks for those remedial measures. Probably same with the vind vest but the vest does have a double zipper so it can be opened from the bottom a tad.

Reporting in from Oakland - the jersey and arm warmers are bee-u-tee-ful!

I ordered the 3X and it is pretty darn snug - my bulges are a little too well-defined! - but I'm hoping in another couple thousand miles, it will look better on me. So maybe I'll post a photo of me in the jersey then! Likewise the large armwarmers are a little tight, but definitely wearable now, and they look great!

BTW - who is "twintheory.com" on the back of the collar?

Well done guys! Great design!

They look stylin and very classy!!!!

Queen "Thanks for the suggestion but I don't leave the house in sleeveless gear.

thought that's what arm skins are for

Bikerz....
I was curious too about the twintheory.com....in fact, I was a little fearful of what I may have unknowingly supported by the purchase (and continue to support via my moving advertisement). From what I can discern, it may be the company used to facilitate the Amici Veloci logo. Click on the site and see what you think......

Mystery solved - Amici Veloci appears on Twin Theory's client list...

**snapdragen** · 10-15-2005, 11:40 AM

Sadie can confirm, but I believe Twin Theory helped with the logo design.

But for fun we could make up some vast conspiracy theory thing - who wants to start?

Well, there's the 'vanishing twin' theory which Tyler Hamilton tried to use in his defense...

I concur with Snap, I believe the owners of Twin Theory are SK's neighbors, and helped clean up the original AV logo for no fee.

**SadieKate** · 10-15-2005, 05:50 PM

You guys are too funny.

Yes, Twin Theory folks are my neighbors, puppysitters and friends. They provided a vast amount of unpaid cleanup work on the logo and lots of general design consulting. Couldn't have done it without them. Maybe they can get a little business in return.

PS - One of the partner's SOs is also my Tuesday afternoon riding partner.

**jeannierides** · 10-16-2005, 06:21 AM

The jerseys and armwarmers are gorgeous! Good thing I didn't order a small, however, from what you've said about your fits, it would've been quite snug! Anyway, next time for me!

**Hill Slug** · 10-16-2005, 04:45 PM

Wah....

Mine still hasn't arrived.....maybe tomorrow...I hope. I just be waitin' by the mailbox......

**SadieKate** · 10-16-2005, 05:11 PM

Repeat from another post:

Just to let everyone know, snap and I have been kicking around the idea of sending in a new order. This means we have to have a min of 25 items ordered. It may be a long shot but we'll be cooking up the plan in the next couple of days and I have to call Voler about their production schedule.

It would help to know who might be interested in a jersey (shortsleeve or sleeveless) or a windvest.

We'll also set up a list of folks who want to sell or trade for a different size.

I have a couple extra pairs of size small arm warmers. If someone wants to buy them ($29) let me know.
