1. November Newsletter !
Welcome to yet another installment of the GymSkinZ Inc. official newsletter! If you're receiving this, it means the lights are still on here at GymSkinZ and you've either sent me your contact info via my website or paid me a visit at my MySpace page - so thank you for dropping by!
Here in Vancouver, I'm gearing up for hibernation mode and high-intensity "OFF-SEASON" relaxation... Well, not really, but the thought of it sure is nice! GymSkinZ will be taking the show on the road in a few weeks as I head down to sunny California (again) to race in the California International Marathon in Sacramento. I use the term "race" very loosely as my business and preparation for the Xmas season has taken priority over this silly thing called "training". Oh well, all in good fun right?! I did however get a *bit* of running in when I was at the Chicago Marathon a few weeks ago which was an amazing weekend and experience. At any rate, I hope you are all enjoying your November and are winding down a very successful 2006 race season - unless you have a few more races before Christmas of course! 2007 is just around the corner and it's absolutely frightening how quick the time has flown by!
I want to thank everyone for their great support and patience over the last 8 months (!) as I continue to build this company called GymSkinZ - I have now surpassed 1000 shirts sold (!!) in over 30 countries (how cool is this, someone in BARBADOS is wearing my stuff)... Anyway, BIG things are in store for 2007 folks, so hold on to your hats!!

2. I'm E X P A N D I N G!
Almost literally! My arse has been planted on this fitness ball for the last few months after Ironman with a whole lot of "NO TRAINING" so I'm quite certain my derriere has expanded beyond the limits of my Team CSC cycling shorts. However, I am extremely pleased to announce I am joining forces with Jet Sportswear here in Vancouver to launch a larger selection of technical fiber apparel. We'll be releasing mens and ladies styles of various technical fiber tops, nifty running shorts, compression fit apparel, and even youth/kids sized technical gear! Hopefully all in time for Christmas so you can pick something up for that multisports geek on your Xmas shopping list. Stay tuned as I'll be announcing the release of our new products soon!
GymSkinZ & LA Triathlon Club!
I'm also proud to announce my affiliation with the Los Angeles Triathlon club and it's 18 million members... ok, not 18 million, but a whole lot of very cool people who know how to do it right when it comes to having fun with this thing called "triathlon". I had the pleasure of attending their year end party down in LA this past weekend and it was fabulous! Special thanx to Liz Oakes for helping me with my last promo to the club, as well as all the great members who took the time to say hello while I was there. Extra big thanx to Stella, Jen, & Dara of the club who have been instrumental in marketing my gear at the various races and events they attended this season!
I'm also oh-so-happy to be promoting GymSkinZ gear within the Phoenix Triathlon club as well! Thanx to Judy Kamella for her support and help spreading the GymSkinZ gospel. Pretty much any club with fun people is fair game - and GymSkinZ will be aggressively marketing into many different markets around the globe!

3. Quality Control!
I am still using the services of Cafepress to produce most of my designs so most of you are receiving your items direct from them. I don't actually get to see or touch the product before you get it, so please let me know if you have any shipping or sizing issues or anything else about your purchasing experience. All purchases are backed by a 30day 100% money-back guarantee so if you need a different size or the shirt wasn't what you expected and you'd like to exchange it for another style, I (and cafepress) will be glad to resolve the problem!

4. Just-Tri.Com
In concert with my sportswear business, I will be launching a brand new free website devoted to this wonderful world of endurance sports. A LOT of my current business as well as some great new friendships have been forged via this phenomenon known as "mySpace". As great as it is, the 123,000,000 members on the site are a little fragmented so just-tri.com is aiming to weed out the riff-raff so to speak, and create a a more focussed virtual community catering to endurance multi-sporters where you can hang out, collaborate, and share your training and race experiences with other like minded people - for FREE. There will be a few other VERY cool components to the site which will be announced soon, but the mere fact you are getting this newsletter means YOU will be part of this exciting new multisports online community whether you like it or not... just kidding! It's totally optional, but I would love it for you to join and mingle with fellow GymSkinZ customers and fans. You'll get to follow my road to Ironman Canada 2007 as well as a few of my other great training partners and best friends, fitness tips and coaching by The Peak Center for Human Performance, general "Triathlon Lifestyle commentary" by various contributing writers and friends of GymSkinZ. What makes Just-Tri different than other existing online "sports community sites" out there? You'll just have to join and find out for yourself!!
In the meantime, feel free to tune into my "You Don't Have To Win, You Just Have To TRI" PodCast". To date, I've had over 23,000 downloads to my various cast episodes - I can't believe that many people out there want to hear me complain about how out of shape I am ;)
In any case, tune in and stay in the loop!

5. New Designs !
TONS of new GymSkinZ Triathlon Shirt designs are still in the works! With a larger selection of apparel, the same hillarious GymSkinZ designs will be available on a wider variety of products. Just drop by the news section on my site often, or browse the catalog for any new updates! Stay tuned! Now that we're in the "offseason", there will be a few designs in honour of "getting lazy while sitting on the couch", as well as the release of my NerdSkinZ line which have absolutely nothing to do with sports, but are still just as hillarious ;)

Take care and catch up with you soon!
cheers!
