How can I find some sort of a sponsor for a cross country bike ride?

Question by OrangeIdahoDog: How can I find some sort of a sponsor for a cross country bike ride?
I’m working on plans to go coast to coast from Virginia Beach to San Fransisco Bay with my brother, and we were wondering how we could find some sort of a sponsor to help cover the expenses.

We’d probably end up doing it for a charity, possibly Boys and Girls Club of America.

Honestly, you probably need to approach them. Explain to them exactly what you need from them and how you would benefit them. That is how people get their inital sponsors. Also, you can do the classic bake sale, yard sale, donations, etc.

Where can I find cycling/bike shorts in colors other than black?

Question by California Dreamin’: Where can I find cycling/bike shorts in colors other than black?
I have spandex cycling shorts in black, and one in blue… but can never find them in other colors. I’d like some in red, orange, yellow, white, etc… and others with various designs and patterns. The stores I go to only sell black, black, and more black. Even Pearl Izumi’s website only sells black cycling shorts.

But where can I find cycling shorts in a variety of colors — either stores or websites?

Where can I find an amazing road bike tour in Europe to go to?

Question by phinetic: Where can I find an amazing road bike tour in Europe to go to?
I have gotten somewhat serious about cycling and would absolutely love to go to Europe and do possibly a 7-14 day road bike tour with other individuals (this would be next year). I don’t want something leisure either, something that will test my endurance. I was wondering if anyone has ever don something like this, who they did it through, and how much it cost. Any sites or information on how you liked it would be awesome too.

I live in the states too so that’s why I’d like to book this in advance.Thanks!

Q&A: I need to find a cycling club for teens that compete in races?

Question by Diana G: I need to find a cycling club for teens that compete in races?
I want to start up bicycling as a sport and I was hoping I could find a club or organization that allows teens to participate in races. Does anyone know of one? Also do you need any special gear for biking other than a bike, helmet and appropriate clothes? Thx! :)

It would help to let us know where you are located. Go to the nearest ‘good bike shop,’ and what I mean by good is one that sells only bikes, and the people there ride. Ask one of them what you just asked, and they may be able to point you in the right direction.

Where can I find information on Amarillo brand mountain bikes?

Question by valmikey: Where can I find information on Amarillo brand mountain bikes?
I just purchased a mountain bike with Amarillo DS on the side of it, so I am assuming that is the brand. When I look it up online all I can find is things related to Amarillo, TX, which is not what I want. Does anybody have any thoughts or resources concerning this type of bike?

Where can I find info about the Tour de France?

Question by Tqoq: Where can I find info about the Tour de France?
I love watching the Tour de France. But I don’t quite understand all about the jerseys, I want to know what time of day they actually begin the stages, where the riders stay, who determines the course each year, etc. I don’t even understand the little graph that appears on the screen periodically (US coverage). Is there a website where I can find the answers to my questions? I can’t find it on my own. I guess I need the Dummies’ Guide to the Tour! Thanks.

Answer by JackC
Wikipedia, as ever, is a good place to start as it has a lot of information on how the Tour works and its history. Bookshops and libraries are also good, as there’s a great deal of literature about the Tour – I especially recommend Tim Moore’s French Revolutions (http://www.amazon.co.uk/French-Revolutions-Cycling-Tour-France/dp/0099433826), in which the author cycles the route of the Tour and includes all sorts of interesting facts, figures and phenomena in a funny and easy-to-read way.

Quick answer re. the jerseys: the yellow jersey, or le maillot jaune, is worn by the overall leader, ie, the rider who has achieved the fastest time over all stages in the tour at any one time (classification leader). The green jersey is worn by the rider who has amassed the most points during sprints. The polka dot jersey is awarded to the King of the Mountains, the rider who has been given the most points for climbing. As the Tour takes in a number of very difficult climbs (such as the Col du Tourmalet, which they’ll climb twice in 2010), this is considered the most prestigious award in cycling by many riders and fans. The white jersey is given to the best young rider.

There are also other awards, including the Prix d la Combativite which is awarded to the rider judged to have been the most combative in each stage. Another award is the Lanterne Rouge, the last rider to finish the Tour, in which case that rider may carry a small red light under his saddle. Despite being in last place, this status is actually highly respected in cycling (simply finishing a race as harsh as le Tour is a definite achievement, no matter where one is placed) and the rider is likely to be approached with lucrative sponsorship deals.
