Hello members. We are delighted to report that our limited-edition 50th anniversary merino wool jersey was very well received by those that ordered one. So well received in fact that we have had several people ask if we would do another production run. In response to your demand, we are putting out another call for expressions of interest. If you are interested in ordering one of these jerseys, please let us know.
The last run was for 40 units and the cost was $225 CAD all in. The new price is dependent on the number of units ordered, so this price may be different. However, we will make an effort to keep the per-unit costs as close to the original pricing as possible. We are targeting to have them ready for this September, just in time for the cool weather. If you are interested in ordering a Cima Coppi 50th Anniversary OBC jersey, please let us know by emailing us at kit@ottawabicycleclub.ca and by e-transferring a $100 deposit to admin@ottawabicycleclub.ca no later than June 30th.
Cima Coppi's website can be found here: https://cimacoppi.cc/en/full-custom/110-ottawa-bicycle-club-50th-jersey…

The Ottawa Bicycle Club has made the difficult decision to again cancel its signature event, the Rideau Lakes Cycle Tour (RLCT) for the summer of 2021.
