I would like to make an offer to people who have never been a member of MORC. There is currently a limited-time opportunity to purchase the great-looking MORC cycling jersey (see link: http://www.morcmtb.org/morcpages/merch.htm ). My understanding is that after the current group order, this jersey may never again be available.

In order to have more people sporting these fine jerseys on the trails, while at the same time encouraging some non-members to give MORC membership a try, I am offering to personally purchase one-year MORC memberships for the next two non-members who order a MORC jersey.

This offer is available to anyone who has never previously been a MORC member, and it only applies to new jersey orders. Sorry, but orders placed prior to this post are not eligible. This is not an official MORC promotion; it is just an offer I am personally making in order to support MORC.

Our website administrator, gopherhockey (John Lundell) has volunteered to verify eligible orders. Therefore, anyone who is interested in taking me up on this offer should PM gopherhockey when they have placed their jersey order, and let him know that you would like claim one of the free memberships. He will then let me know that an eligible order has been placed, and I will send MORC one year's membership dues on behalf of the purchaser.

I sincerely hope that two people will take me up on this offer, and that as a result of this little promotion, I will be able to support MORC financially to the tune of another $50, while helping to bring two new jersey-wearing members into MORC!!

Incidentally, for those people who are on the fence about whether or not MORC is worthy of their support, I highly recommend reading this thread, which details some of the efforts of MORC volunteers in the interest of mountain bike advocacy:

Bump II.

Somebody take advantage of this quick, as the order will be placed soon! Buy yourself (or someone else) a cool MORC Jersey, and help "Gain and Maintain Trails" at the same time!

Is this only offered to new memberships? We currently have a family membership, but I would like to get a jersey for either myself or Rodney. Are there women's styles available? LMK... we are interested in getting a jersey either way.

Sorry, this offer is intended to apply only to new memberships. Again, this is not an official MORC promotion; it's just an offer by me personally. It's an idea I thought of to help support MORC financially, to help MORC sell a couple more jerseys, and to get a couple of non-members to try out MORC membership free for a year, which hopefully they will decide to renew when the first year is up.

I would like to think that current MORC members will renew their membership anyway, so I was trying to target non-members who might be on the fence about joining MORC.

Unfortunately, despite a few inquiries, there have been no takers so far. :embarass: So, if you know any non-members who use this forum or might benefit from MORC in other ways, let them know about this offer!

Yes, the offer is still good! Just order a jersey, and send a PM to gopherhockey, letting him know you want to claim a free MORC membership under this offer. He'll PM me, and I'll send payment for the membership to MORC.

If it weren't a $70 riding jersey that I will rarely wear, I'd be interested. Unfortunately, since I've been working six days and 60-75 hrs, I think I have ridden maybe six times this year. :cryin:

Sure, the jerseys aren't the cheapest around, but they're great looking, great quality, and they provide both financial and moral support to MORC! :)
