News and Events for Bike Patrol
WE HAVE NEW JERSEYS WITH A BRAND NEW AWESOME DESIGN!
We are able to offer the Bike Patrol jersey for sale to qualified patrollers. “Qualified” patroller means you have done a minimum of 4 patrols. The jerseys are made by Pactimo and are Century (club) cut, which is more relaxed. They are available on the on-line El Tour store page in a special code – accessed area for $55. Once you have completed 4 patrols contact the Bike Patrol Director for the code to access the store to buy your jersey. That means you can order your jersey, plus you can get a jacket or vest if you want one. (We won’t be offering shorts or gloves, so you’re on your own there).
