Team,
I’ve been gathering a bit of intel on our team and what we can offer as benefits and what we can do better. Without getting into the weeds, This is what I’m hearing:
More activities such as regularly scheduled rides
Better integration with our sponsors, especially Rock n Road and Specialized
More Away Events, such as Grand Fondo’s, epic ride locations that we attend as a group
Better communication method. In my mind as FB and Instagram and the like become more infiltrated with inappropriate content, Ads, and Spam, the only safe haven is our website.
And as always better deals on Specialized Bikes and other stuff at the shop
New vibrant kits
We have been working diligently on all these challenges and in 2027 you will see a markedly more impactful team dynamic. Our relationship with Specialized and RnR is now stronger than ever and will include other company owned stores. Discounts, quite frankly are best in class and stronger/simpler than last year. I can’t reveal all the details until the meeting. We’ll be launching an all new website that will allow for a much quicker and meaningful communication process. Bring your cellphone to the meeting!
So if you are thinking about changing clubs or teams, you should attend our meeting to hear firsthand about our benefits and how we are going to grow the sport... together! Have something to say? Come and let your voice be heard!
I look forward to your attendance at The RocknRoad store in Laguna Niguel on Saturday, November 14th, 6pm. We’ll even w**e & dine you. But you’ll have to participate and get involved. RSVP at link in bio or scan QR code
Safe Riding,
