I tried to sign up because I'm into gravel things and free things...but bikesignup tells me I'm not a Club Spinistry member. True dat! But if this is an open event, I'd like to come out and ride.
Gravel Grinders
Endurance MTB
Bikepacking
Adventure

Club rides like that one are one of the benefits of being a member.
Ha! Guess so! Just as a helpful reminder I was one of the first Club Spinistry members back in the day...Club Spinistry promised a significant portion of the membership fee would be returned in sponsor swag. When I showed up for the swag bag that turned out to be not true. I mean, not like there was a coozy and a fridge magnet & that didn't seem like half the cost of membership...there was nothing. I called Spinistry to ask wft & was told, 'no prob, hit me up at this upcoming event & get your swag.' :-D That turned out to be a ploy just so Spinistry could tell me IN PERSON I would be getting zero swag. Ha-ha! Later on in the parking lot, I found out from club mates that they got swag bags (although I don't know what was in them).
So that was my experience being a Club Spinistry member: Spinistry touched me up for about $70 and kinda gave me a middle finger for it. Whenever we can get square on that, I'll consider Club Spinistry membership again.
Happy Thanksgiving, Y'all! Kevin, I hear you're able to get back on the bike a little? I'm glad to hear that!
Apologies if you didn't get what you were expecting. It reads like there is some confusion about what comes with a Club Spinistry membership. Please message me directly so that we can make sure to sort it all out. spinistry@gmail.com
" It reads like there is some confusion about what comes with a Club Spinistry membership."
Just so casual readers may understand, there is absolutely zero confusion on this issue. Part of the initial Club Spinistry membership was something called a 'Club Spinistry Swag Kit'. This kit was due to be delivered at the Red River Riot event. At the Red River Riot event ther was no Club Spinistry Swag Kit available. I contacted Spinistry by email and they admitted that it had 'fallen through the cracks'. First they were going to mail it. Then they were going to make it available at the next event. Then Spinistry told me no 'Club Spinistry Swag Kit' would be available at all. When I asked other riders on my cycling team about it they confirmed they had received a 'Club Spinistry Swag Kit'.
That's the way it went down. No confusion. Crystal clear. ;-) @Spinistry you've got mail!
