Check this out...

That is the wackiest tracking I've seen in a while.

Patrick - that's pretty unreadable.

Funny Canada post tracking story - I ordered a very expensive camera lens from Camera Canada back in march and they shipped it Canada Post. Great tracking all the way through and then suddenly at 10 am they marked it delivered (Yes, I was hitting F5 all day) and I couldn't tell who exactly was supposed to have delivered it. I couldn't find it anywhere out front! I freaked out and called Canada Post but their phone services for international packages basically don't exist and after bouncing around for a while I gave up (you can only track things online with a canadian zip code? Wtf)

USPS post man shows up a few hours later with my lens - he said they mark it delivered because if they don't before 10 am Canada post people get frosty. I'm not sure how marking it "delivered" without actually delivering it is supposed to improve my blood pressure but phew - got it.

You are all very welcome. I'm happy to help and now that I've seen it, I'm bummed I didn't order one for myself! Next time!

Patrick - the package either did or did not leave both Los Angeles and/or Montreal today! Seems pretty simple to me!

Canada Post gets frosty? I have a client send me many boxes every week and most of them come through Canada Post or Purolator (Canada Post owned). I have never received all boxes in good shape. I have boxes that come from the other end of the country and get there before those that come from 50 km away.

Oh, and they are much more expensive than the USPS.

A previous iteration showed the package in Montreal on Monday. Meanwhile CP says it is in Santa Clarita. It may get here before the next Ice Age. Or not...

Maybe Monday then? We were out of town from Friday night till Monday, came Monday then I am assuming....just thought it sat in my mailbox all weekend......huh... Even Monday is pretty fast for shipping on Saturday.

I got mine and took it out for a ride yesterday. Very well made jersey that I look forward to wearing out.

Thanks a lot for putting this all together, PhotoJoe. I appreciate it quite a lot.

My package arrived yesterday and I picked it up today. Very, very, nice. Thanks again for handling this.

There is only one issue; the smaller of the two jersey almost fits which mean that we are going to have to order again in the future.

I'll submit a pic as soon as I take one with my new(er) bike.

I will regret this, my very FIRST selfie...really too darn old for selfies but will show off the jersey. a good fit, I am working on thinning down still so it will fit better after another 5 or 35lbs or so.


A selfie, don't tell any of my buddies, so embarrassing...

When I post my picture it won't be better. It may be worse...

Now, if I knew you better I could make lots of back handed compliments about how the jersey looks super nice, but I won't...

They look pretty sharp in the flesh. Nice. I'll have to pay attention if there's a next time.

I suspect there will be a Round 5, but I also suspect it won't be entirely too soon. Don't be a stranger and keep your eyes open. We need at least 10 to hit the pricing.

OK, so it's been a month or so and I'd love to get some feedback from those who have ordered in this latest round. Like I said before, I still have mine from the first round, so I didn't order one from this batch. I should have. Or at least pulled one out of the bag to give it a real once-over. Anyway, being that this is the first order from Aerotech, I'd love some feedback. They look nicer than those from the other manufacturer, but I'd like to get input from those of you who have worn it.

1) How is the quality?
2) How does the quality compare to what you expected or other jerseys that you own?
3) Did you choose the right size?
4) Is it larger, smaller or about what you expected based on the information provided by Aerotech?
5) If you have other jerseys, what other brands/models does this fit most similar to in your collection?

All of this will help other members for future orders.

Thanks!

1. Aerotech is good stuff, really like it. Quality is holding up well.
2. Can't say only own Aerotech stuff.
3. I chose the biggest size they had, wish I could have gotten a bit bigger but its ok, I am supposed to be shrinking right?
4. The size chart was spot on! Just a size smaller than I normally order. I have a large chest/shoulder so I like it bigger there and have to order up to get that. Ordered the biggest they had.
5. Again, can't say.....

Its a good jersey. Looks good too.

1) The quality is exactly what I expected from ATD, it's good stuff, it's holding up well.
2) I only own ATD jerseys, so I can't compare
3) Yes
4) It's a bit smaller than expected, but that's due to the "cut" of the jersey rather than the sizing IMO.
5) Same as #2


And yes, you should have bought one for yourself.

Those are some pretty nice jerseys!!

I have a C & A jersey from about 4 years ago that is of a different design. Since I've dropped about 50 pounds since then, it's quite a baggy fit on me nowadays. I'll have to get in on the next jersey order that takes place so I can have a better fitting C&A jersey.
