WCNI Skinsuit orders

Our club falls within the WCNI banner and at certain events (eg. track nationals) our riders are required to wear a WCNI skinsuit. Kim Andersen is doing a great job collecting orders. Here is a message from Kim:

 

I am starting the ball rolling, or should I say continuing the good work that Rachael and Denay did on sourcing the WCNI skinsuits.

I have the;

· Proof of skinsuit design
· Pricelist for various options (Click here)

My thoughts were that it would be great to get the ball rolling early on this, this year.

So please have a think about whether or not you are looking for a new skinsuit for the upcoming track season! Also please remember we do still have stock of the previous style of skinsuit (ie before Champion Systems) these are $145.00 to purchase and the sizes are small and extra small.

I am happy to collate the orders for Champion Systems. Individuals can email me directly – kim.andersen@spark.co.nz, or PM me, with the desired skinsuit option and size.

I will require a 50% deposit to place the order with the balance to be paid on pickup.

Cut off for orders and deposit to be paid – 23 June 2015.

This enables me to place the order during this week, then we will have the garments by mid-August.

Thanks everyone, spread the word!!
