Update: 50 men's and 9 women's jerseys ordered. I know of two more women's jerseys that will be ordered tonight. We need four more women's jerseys to make the minimum of 15.
Although it's the end of summer and still balmy outside, don't forget that the holidays are just around the corner. Don't let your wife, girlfriend, lover, mother, or daughter be disappointed when she finds out that you didn't buy her a new SORBAcsra jersey. ;D

I think the chapter should just order some of each (mens & womens) to make the minimum and to have some on-hand for sale at events.

We have more than enough men's jerseys to meet the minimum order of 15 and are one or two women's jerseys shy of meeting the minimum. As we contact a few more people and twist a few more arms, we'll leave the ordering form online until Tuesday evening.
Thank you for your support.

Thank you to everyone who purchased a SORBAcsra jersey, including a few folks with twisted arms. With a little cajoling and browbeating we met the minimum order for both men's and women's jerseys! The lead time to manufacture and ship jerseys from Primal is 8-10 weeks, so we anticipate jerseys arriving in the middle of October. If you've been waffling about buying a jersey you still have a few more hours to decide. The SORBAcsra jersey ordering page will close later tonight. If you decide to hold off on your jersey purchase, and there is enough interest (i.e., minimum 15 men's jerseys and/or 15 women's jerseys), we can place another order later this fall or winter. Given the difficulty we had meeting the minimum number of women's jerseys this time, it seems likely that any additional group orders will be for the men's cut only (but you never know). We appreciate your support and will post details about jersey pick-up (for local orders) when the jerseys arrive. For out-of-town orders, and a few locals that paid the out-of-town price, we will mail your jersey(s) to the address you specified. Be safe and keep the rubber side down.

I am absolutely stunned with the amount of jerseys ordered. WOW! Awesome. This is a testament to the design of the jerseys, and the strong core of riders we have that share a love of all mountain bike trails we have here in the CSRA! Great job DK! MD

In the end, we received donations for 74 SORBAcsra jerseys (56 men's and 18 women's). Most orders were from Georgia and South Carolina, with a few from Florida, North Carolina, and one from Missouri.
When I placed the order today, Primal estimated that they should arrive mid October. ;D

The SORBAcsra jerseys are now in Colorado and could possibly be here by Friday. If so, the first opportunity to pick up your jersey will be Saturday at the Baker's Dozen. Stay tuned... Here are images of the final product:

The first batch of 19 jerseys arrived today. If your jersey was one of these 19 (all men's), you already have been sent an email detailing where/when you may pick up your jersey.
The remaining jerseys (55 jerseys) should arrive sometime next week, or shortly thereafter.
Stayed tuned!

All the jerseys that were ordered for the first printing have now arrived and, if you were part of this order, you should have received an email with the following information: If you paid an extra $5 to have your jersey mailed to you, your jersey should be in the mail (USPS) by early next week is in the mail and should arrive by Monday or Tuesday. If you chose local pick up for your jersey, volunteers will be available to distribute your order this weekend at the following locations and times (look for the SORBAcsra flag): Saturday, October 13th - Petersburg Parking Lot (Bartram Trail) - 12:00P - 2:00P Sunday, October 14th - FATS, South Parking Lot - 12:00P - 2:00P Additional days, locations, and times for jersey pick up will be announced as necessary, and most likely will be next weekend.

About half the jerseys were picked up today. ;D
If you have a jersey waiting for you, and didn't get it today, then tomorrow at FATS (south parking lot; noon to 2:00PM) would be a great time to pick it up.
Thank you for your support.

Most, but not all, jerseys were picked up today at FATS. If you were unable to get to Bartram or FATS this weekend and pick up your jersey from one of our volunteers, you will have to contact SORBAcsra secretary to find out when/where the next opportunity to pick up your jersey might be. Thank you for your support.

The jerseys look good on here, but they are really eye popping in person. Great job on them. Thanks to all that worked on them

Well, the're not quite as awesome looking without the matching tats on the arms as in the picture above but they do look great in person. Saw Angela sporting hers on the trails yesterday and they really are eye catching.
Great job DK. Going to get the arms to match?
