Seat covers are ready!
Written by Nicole McCarthy   
Wednesday, 16 April 2008

Our sweet new seat covers are in and are ready to be sold!!  These are super soft gray NeatSeat covers with our Vulcan Tri logo on them in black and white.  The seat cover with nothing on it retails for $49.95 - $54.95 but our we are selling them at a special club cost of only $45!  And not only do you get the seat cover, but it also comes with two seat belt covers so that you can keep your seat belt from getting sweaty too! 

If you pre-ordered one of these seat covers, you will be contacted regarding payment and pickup.  If you haven't already ordered one but wish to do so, you can do that here.  We only ordered 75 of them so quantities are limited!  Caitlin will be at the Trak Shak next Wednesday night 4/23 to give out seat covers to anyone that has ordered one or wants to get one.  You can read more details about the seat covers in this article posted last month.

 
 
2008 tri clothing order update
Written by Nicole McCarthy   
Thursday, 10 April 2008

The original tri clothing order deadline was Sunday 4/6 but as of yet we have not met the Sugoi minimum order number for any of the pieces which is 24.  So we’ve decided to extend the order deadline to try to meet the minimums.  It means the clothing will be in a little later, but we can’t order if we don’t meet the minimums!

The Sugoi fit kit will remain at Homewood Cycle until this Friday 4/11.  It will then be taken to Irondale and available to try on at the Powerman packet-pickup this Saturday 4/12 from 12 pm – 7 pm.   You will have the chance to place an order at our club booth at the Powerman expo.  The online order form will also remain available until the new order deadline of Sunday 4/20.   Remember that this will be the only tri clothing order done this year so get your orders in soon!

2008 tri clothing order
Written by Nicole McCarthy   
Tuesday, 25 March 2008

Time to order some new tri clothing!!  The Sugoi fit kit came in on Monday and was taken to Homewood Cycles on Tuesday 3/25.  The fit kit will stay at Homewood Cycles (2834 South 18th St. 35209) until next Thursday 4/3 for anyone to go by and try on different sizes of their clothing.  The consensus from last year was that the clothing runs a little small so we highly recommend trying on the clothing before you order it.

Tues night group ride - change in start location
Written by Nicole McCarthy   
Monday, 24 March 2008
Due to the sheer volume of cyclists who partake in the weekly Tuesday night rides (aka Tuesday Worlds) from behind Homewood Cycle, we have decided to change the start location for our Tuesday night Vulcan Tri group ride.   It also eliminates having to go down the one way street.  So instead of meeting and starting behind Homewood Cycle, we are going to start from the Colonial bank parking lot (2501 20th Pl S # 101, Birmingham, AL ) next to the Mountain Brook YMCA.  The start time will be the same --- roll out at 5:15 pm.  We’ll start from this new location this week, Tuesday 3/25.   However, since it is kind of late notice, Mallory Slaughter will be at the Homewood parking lot to catch anyone that may not get the message.   See you guys there!

VT Points Series details
Written by Jason Lackey   
Monday, 17 March 2008

The idea behind the VT Points Series is to encourage and increase participation in club activities and events Vulcan Triathletes supports in the community.  The challenge allows members the opportunity to add their name to the hat (hereafter, called “points”) for monthly prizes.  Members receive points based upon participating/volunteering in select events during each month.  Once the month has ended and participation/volunteerism has been verified and tallied.  The Club will draw 3 names “out of a hat” for monthly prizes.  Each month is a new month and your chances for winning prizes starts over again.  All active members, other than the Board of Directors, are eligible to participate in the program; members must be a valid/current member of Vulcan Triathletes to be eligible points.  The monthly prizes are gift certificates from various establishments.

You can earn points by participating in any of the Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday night group workouts or any of the events listed below:
