Thank you to Sponsors
Dear friends and sponsors,
Just two weeks ago and we all ran past the finish line
of the gigathlon 2005 in Basel, Switzerland, exhilarated
by the two day event and joyous that we finished healthy
and ready to move on to the next adventure - our holiday
in Italy. It has been an incredible adventure for all
of us, for some a dream come true, for others to enjoy
the limits, for me personally it was all of it.
But all of this couldn't have happened if it wasn't
for the support and help of all the sponsors, the friends
and family who supported us during the preparation as
well as the Swiss Olympic Association who granted us
a wild card for the event. We'd like to take the opportunity
to thank all of you. As we have supporters from Canada
and Switzerland, I'd like to give a short summary in
which way they all have supported us along the way.
Read the rest of it here...

5by5Canada Logo and Team Clothing
Team 5by5 will be sporting a distinctive Canadian look
when its arrives in Switzerland on July 1st. Thanks
to Helen
Lee, our web designer, and Dave
Fulton from Crackers, the Maple Leaf and the web
site address will appear on our team
vests and polo shirts.
Our contact with Dave came by way of a shared moment
on the road during the second day of Golden
Triangle. David Lawson
was drafting behind Dave over a 10 km stretch of highway
and noticed the prominent logo on his behind… well,
its hard not to notice after 10K). During a brief brake
in the routine, they talked a bit about the ride, each
other’s work and eventually about the Gigathlon
on July 9 and 10. It didn’t take long to connect
the dots as Dave’s company supplies small and medium
businesses with custom designed logos, jackets, shirts
and baseball caps. Suzanne
and Dave worked out the details in selecting the clothing
with Helen providing the graphics for the logo design.
And voila!
