Mark C — Tue, 13 Jul 2010 20:58:24 +0000

The iMiNUSD and SJFixed cycling kits are complete and available now. JP, our in-house graphic designer, put in some amazing work to get to this final kit design. The kit consists of a cycling jersey, bib shorts, arm warmers, leg warmers and shoe covers. All the pieces will be available as a complete kit or separately through our online boutique.

All pieces feature full silicone grippers at each sleeve to prevent slippage, UV protected COOLMAX® fabric to protect you from burning while also wicking away moisture to keep you comfortable, full length hidden zippers, as well as a traditional 3 pocket rear on the Jersey. Full Kits available from XXS-XXL.

Thursday Night Ride. Today.

Mark C — Thu, 14 Jan 2010 21:29:37 +0000

Wooo, this Thursday is actually going to be a break from the rain! 0% chance of rain
that day so whoever has been holed up because of the rain, today is your chance to
ride around for a bit. For this social we will be heading to A Slice of New York. This
place has been voted best pizza of 2009 from the metro, the wave, and the mercury
news! It will be a nice change of pace from always eating the pizza at 4th St. Pizza
(which is pretty damn good). As usual, after heading to A Slice of New York we will
head back to downtown for our $5 pitchers and chill session at 4th. St. Pizza. See you
there! Oh and PS, this is a social paced ride, try to keep it one group as much as possible
or volunteer to lead some that are falling behind.

Meet: 6:30pm @ SJSU Fountain
Depart: 7:00pm
W2B: Lights, Weather appropriate clothing, Tools, Tubes, Good attitudes
& riding etiquette, Smiles, happy faces, and hungry stomachs

Route: 9.8 Mile Loop
From SJSU Fountain > Down San Carlos > Hop onto Park > L on Naglee > L on Winchester > R on Stevens Creek
Pitstop: A Slice of New York
Take Stevens Creek / San Carlos back to DT > L on 3rd > R on Santa Clara
Finish: 4th St. Pizza

It’ll be dry! Ride!

“To hell and Back” & Ghoul Sprints

Mark C — Mon, 02 Nov 2009 06:25:46 +0000

This past week was a big week for iMD and SJF. With the costume ride kicking off our Halloween weekend and ending it with the Gold Sprints mansion party, the weekend was nothing short of Epic.

Thanks to all those who raced “To Hell and Back”. Tim Tornado Tsuruda aka “Twinky”, from SJF, took top honors followed by Marc “Marcopolis” and then Martine “The Big Gear”.

Our very first Goldsprints tournament was a huge success even with the little hardware hiccups during the beginning of the tournament. We had a total of 40 riders register for the event. Our biggest complaint for the night was the 42/17 gearing we decided to use for the sprints. I left it that way to make it even more painful for the racers.

Once again, Tim took top honors followed by Thyna Mao, Maurice Monge and Andrew “Fast” Ho coming in 4th place. Thanks to everyone who decided to spend their Halloween eve with us for sprints and drinks.

Big Thanks to Globe Bikes for hooking it up with a couple Roll 2’s for our Goldsprints setup, Open Sprints for providing support during our software/hardware build, DJ RESPIN for emceeing the event and Darin, from SJF, for letting us trash your place. Thank you October for the amazing month!
