Who Wants To Be A Moviestar?
I got this request to forward on to all the X-Men, regarding an upcoming film project. If you want to be an extra in this film, email John and let him know:
Hi there,
We are reaching out to you and your team regarding potential involvement with Peloton The Movie. The feature film is tentatively scheduled to start shooting on July 15th in and around Salt Lake City, Park City and Ogden. We are interested in having your group participate as extra riders in the film. Anyone interested in participating with the project should email pelotonthemovie@gmail.com directly, so we can add them to the mailing list. We encourage you to forward this message to your group and feel free to email us with any questions, information requests or concerns you have.
We look forward to hearing from you!

Clothing Update from Squadra
After trading a few emails back and forth with Dough (Greg Demgen, Sales and Marketing Chief at Squadra), it looks like our new clothing will be ready to ship from Squadra in Carlsbad, California, to X-Men HQ in Park City, Utah. Thanks to all the club members who placed their orders promptly and have waited patiently. We got a late start this year with the new kit, but I am feeling good about getting the club back on track and this is just the start. I will post again when the goods arrive. Thanks!
New Bibshort Design Finalized
We are pleased to unveil our 2009 bibshort design which completes the new team kit. Don (the design guy at Squadra) was working on a new design for us based on a yet-to-be-released pattern that incorporates sublimated side panels, back panel and lower leg wrap panels, all in one piece of fabric. We will be the first team in the U.S. that will get this new cut, as Squadra won’t be introducing it into their line until 2010. Take a look and see how it jives with the jersey design. We tried in the past to carry the stripes all the way down, but it never looked quite right because of the different fabric panels. Visit the Clothing Page to Pre-Order your bibshorts now, as we will only do one order for bibs this year. We will offer both men’s and women’s. The women’s have a special women-specific chamois pad and a shorter length cut. Please note, the images make it look like these are not bibshorts, but this is just for design purposes to show off the printed area. We are definitely ordering bibs, and only bibs.

2009 X-Men Jersey Design
New Jersey Designs
Below are three options for 2009 X-Men jersey designs. Not really new designs, but color choices. Here’s some history. From about 1996 to 2000, we had the blue and black stripes. This is the classic old-school design, before we started messing with colors. There was a white and light blue version for two years, then a green and white that didn’t work out too well, then in 2006-2008, we went with the red and blue comic book colors. As much as I liked the change of the red and blue, we heard “spiderman”, “bert and ernie”, and “Backyardigans.” The three options below are where we are heading this year. Perhaps a returnt to the classic blue and black? What about the new blue and brown? Give us your thoughts, as we will be making a decision soon based on what the group wants. As always, clothing will be manufactured by Squadra, which means it won’t be cheap, but it will last forever.
