CW5000 hoodies now available
What better way to get warm after a big mile ride than in a CW5000 hoodie. Available in three colours.
The hoody is a staple of the cyclist's wardrobe, the perfect post ride top to keep you warm. We've designed (and by that, we mean we've stuck the CW5000 logo on the top) specially for CW5000 riders. What better way to recover after you've ticked off a few more miles from the target.
The hoodies are made and sent out by Spring (formerly Teespring) and are generally sent out from the continent where they're ordered, rather than one central location. This means they should be available wherever you are in the world.

The CW5000 community is spread to all corners of the world, and we'd love to see how far these spread. So if you purchase one, please do post pictures on the CW5000 Facebook group to show where and when you've been wearing them. Extra Kudos for wearing them at pro races, tops of mountains or famous cycling locations.
