Area Bike Shop Support Provided Through our Team Discount Program
An extensive Team Discount Program is available to our Team and represents a great value to our members. The sponsoring bike shops not only provide discounts to our members, but they also donate generous amounts of time and energy to support our Training Ride Series, as well as performing bike inspections at our Team Safety Picnic. They also provide support along the route during the MS 150 and at our Team tent in La Grange.
Our sponsoring bike shops provide a variety of generous discounts that generally apply to Bikes, Clothing & Accessories and Repairs/Labor. Discounts vary from shop to shop, but can normally save Team members 5-10% on Bikes and an average of 10% on Clothing & Accessories.
Some shops require members to register on-line to receive discounts. These shops will supply Team members with a discount card. Other shops require only that you tell the cashier that you are a member of the ExxonMobil Cycling Team. Each shop's requirements are listed below. We would recommend that you register early with all the shops that require registration. Also, it is a good idea to print the Team Discount Program page and have it with you when you visit the shops, just to be sure you are getting the proper discount.
Links to each shop's web site are also provided. Their web sites often contain a great deal of information about bike selection, bike fit, clothing, equipment and other topics that can make your biking experience more enjoyable. If you are thinking about purchasing a bike for the MS 150, this reference information can be invaluable in helping sort through the many decisions you will face in finding just the right bike for you.
