Happy August!!!

I just wanted to quickly touch base with the team to remind y'all that the window to order jerseys and shorts will close on Monday, August 15th.  We are closing the current order so that the jerseys can get shipped out to you by the first week in October so you have a jersey to ride in fall rides.

Here's the link to the online team store: http://www.peak1bikestore.com/shell/
The store will re-open again in October for an end of the year home delivery.  The 2017 Houston to Austin MS 150 registration will open in mid-September to accommodate Shell's double match HERO program.  The double match will only be open for two weeks.  This is great way to up your donations to your favorite charities such as the Galveston Bay Foundation's Bike around the Bay, MS 150 for Houston or Louisiana, and BikeHouston; all great charities with worthy causes.  Look for the double matching program in upcoming MyNews articles on Tuesdays.
