Title: Derot Racing Wants You
Post by: sullie363 on January 30, 2007, 06:09:32 PM
What I present to you is a fairly new business based out of Portland, OR.  Named Derot (pronounced Dee-rot), they have just gotten into the clothing business for MX, BMX, and MTB riders.  If you buy one of their shirts, I promise you that you will look cool as well as having all the women in the room want to go home with you.  Check them out at http://www.derotracing.com
 
If you're wondering what I get out of any sale, well it's nothing.  Aside from taking the occasional pictures for them for free, I just want them to succeed.  Here's some pics from the latest outting.

....what's the difference between those and any shirt you can buy at Wal Mart or Target?  No offense intended.

Well if to you, a shirt is a shirt is a shirt then I guess I would see your point.  But then again this is specific to a racing team.  Sort of using the same logic here as to why people buy Nascar or NFL apparel.  I realize this would be a very small niche but one part of any new company is getting the word out.

It would be cooler if the guy on the bike landed on the blond guy in the picture.  I would buy a shirt then.

I guess so, same reasoning people buy shirts that says Vans, Fender, and DC shoe co.  Good luck to them though, I'm sure they'll find a large customer base.

The cool factor would be much higher if they did'nt have "Pinkbike" tatooed on them.

Pinkbike is just where I upload bike pics along with hundreds of other people everyday.  It was easier to link to them than upload all the pics again to something like imageshack.
