So this has been a long time in the works, but I am happy to officially announce for the first time that The Pedal Pushers Club is now available in City Sports stores from Boston to DC!  For those of you not on the East Coast, everything is available on their website as well, including some styles so exclusive you can't even get them here.  We are very excited to be working with City Sports as they are kind of a big deal around here, truly catering to urban athletes and active lifestyle enthusiasts. 

You can also read a fascinating interview with yours truly on their blog:

We are taking the traveling road show to New York City for a few events over the next few weeks. In honor we have a few new NY themed shirts such as:

 This Sunday is the 15th annual Stop Swap and Save in Westminster MD.  We will be out there selling t-shirts as usual, although depending on how much rooting around in the warehouse I feel like doing, we may have an entire booth of super-discounted odds-and-ends.  For more information about the swap you can look here: http://stopswapandsave.com/  

This is one of the bigger swaps I have ever been to and definitely recommend making the drive if you are going to be around.

Our ancestral roots are taking us back to the SOWA Market's annual holiday gift/craft show in Boston. This is always a great event albeit a crowded one. Come say hello, we will have plenty of cool gift ideas and maybe some special B-town treats.

If you read the "bicycle-media" than you have already probaby heard about Levis new commuter jean that came out earlier this month.  It boasts cylcist-specific features like a reflective strip when you roll up the cuff, a U-lock holder, and nano-technology.  I have no idea what that last bit is, but it sounds pretty serious.  To Celebrate the launch of their new pants (trousers for our UK readers), Levis will be touring coast to coast holding launch parties and offering free bike mechanic-ing.  The first was in NYC last weekend, and they will hit Philly On Thursday and Friday. For more dates and information about the tour click here.   Why am i telling you this, you may ask?  Well, the Pedal Pushers Club will proudly be featuring some of new City-to-City collection alsong the way (you can probably guess which shirts will be sold in which cities).  If you get a chance you should definitely check out the tour when it rolls through your town. I will be at the Philadelphia event this Friday and all of the shirts are now for sale at PedalPushersClub.com

Want to show off photographic evidence of that new trick you mastered?  Send us a picture of you and your bike to be featured on our new cycling photography tumblr page: pedalpushersclub.tumblr.com.   Extra bonus points if you are sporting any of your PPC gear.  You can submit pictures to picts@pedalpushersclub.com and get a $10 anything coupon code.
