how can we let this off top spot on the first page…
Now that we have the shirts sorted, what’s the order status for the hats? Will they be done through the same site, or do we have a different order process if they’re coming straight from headsweats?
Great work everyone, can’t wait to get my order in, and I’d just like to add my respects to Gerard for stepping up on this one. What a great offer and generally all around good guy.
Cheers,
J.

From the site -
Alpha top:
Introduction
The Alpha Top is the most aero singlet in our triathlon range. Tight, light and aero, the Alpha top is constructed out of our E-Fit lycra and goes from swim to bike to run perfectly. The tight fit allows for swimming with ease. Extra-wide shoulder coverage with 40+ UV protection give great sun protection, while the two extra-tight back pockets provide storage with no drag. The exceptional moisture management and 12” zipper allow for easy temperature control during the bike and run. Reflective heat transfers provide race required reflectivity for safety. Flatlock stitching for next to skin comfort. XS-XL
Fabric Technology
E-Fit Compression Lycra allows the body to physically push itself to its maximum while keeping it cool and dry and supported. E-Fit Lycra provides the best moisture management lasting the entire life of the garment. Our wicking technology is “born” with the fabric at it’s time of construction, not applied afterwards. E-Fit provides 40+ UV protection preventing sunburn and dehydration allowing performance with the elements, not against them. E-Fit Lycra achieves optimal performance levels when worn skintight.
The LCS
The LCS is the coolest triathlon singlet in our range. Made with our E-Flow fabric this slim cut long course singlet allows for maximum performance levels with maximum protection, including 40+ UV protection defending against the harmful effects of sunburn and dehydration. Wide shoulders allow for maximum coverage of exposed skin. A 12” zipper provides great ventilation allowing body temperature control. Reflective heat transfers provide race required reflectivity for safety. Flatlock stitching for next to skin comfort. Two back pockets for storage. XS-XL
Fabric Technology
E-Flow Light and Cool fabric allows the body to physically push itself to its maximum while keeping it cool and dry. It provides the best moisture management lasting the entire life of the garment. The wicking technology is “born” with the fabric at it’s time of construction, not applied afterwards. E-Flow provides 40+ UV protection preventing sunburn and dehydration allowing performance with the elements, not against them.

That’s the best bump EVER!
Plus, 100% for charity! That’s more than $1, isn’t it? Is gerard making money off of this? What’s the scam? Or is this just one of those good ideas gone horribly right? ;p
To answer a few questions with regards to costs, my goal was to do this entire thing and either break even or lose a little bit. I didn’t want to be accused of making a profit from a charity drive. It was tough to do an exact costing at the time, as for example the costs of the logos depend on the size and of course these are new logos we need to make, as well as issues like set-up costs which are fixed and therefore affect the cost of each T depending on the total volume. Some other things are also difficult to estimate, like how much work it is going to take to ship out these orders, including the hats which Stephen is having made elsewhere but which we will do the shipping for.
But I set the prices as well as I could in order to break even or lose a few pennies, and to be absolutely sure I said I would make the $500 donation so that if we inadvertently make a few dollars it will be more than offset by the $500.
Now, for ordering we will do the following:
-
Starting in the next few days, there will be a link from our ad banner to a page that shows you the apparel pieces, as well as prices and shipping costs to the various countries.
-
There will also be a link to an e-mail address, namely tribe@cervelo.com. You can e-mail your order here (starting now, or wait until the banner is up), all we need is an e-mail outlining what pieces (short sleeve Tech T, long sleeve Tech T, singlet), how many and what size (XS-XL).
-
When we get closer to the ship date (probably February), you will get an e-mail asking you to provide your shipping and payment info through our secure server.
That’s it, happy Holidays.
Gerard.
Gerard,
Thank you. You will be able to accept foreign CC’s online without an issue wont you?
Regards
Andrew
I think that won’t be a problem. We’ll run all the payments through PayPal which should be free of charge to all paying parties. There’s just a charge on the receiving end, just like there would be for credit card payments.
Thanks for the details. I hope it was clear that I was being silly, and not trying to insinuate that you were trying to turn a profit off of this. I do appreciate what you, and others on this forum, have done to make this deal happen.
Thanks to you all for making this such a cool place. I look forward to ordering some stuff.
gerard - thanks for the info - can’t wait - I don’t know how I will decide whether to wear this stuff or my tsr stuff in my first race next year …
