V-Announcements: Velominati Partner Coupons & Discounts

WE’VE BEEN BUYSSE

We interrupt our usual programming to announce a new and exciting program between Velominati and our Partners: Velominati Partner Coupons & Discounts.

DeFeet has been quietly supporting Velominati almost since our inception, using Rule #5 and Rule #9 to promote their line of products which fall squarely into the Flandrian Best range of cycling kit. As of last Summer, we officially partnered up to offer prizes to some VSP events and to provide the V-Socks.

We’re proud to announce that we’re opening the throttle a bit more and are now offering discounts at the DeFeet online store for the Velominati Community. For those Community Members who have risen above that of a Level 4 Velominatus, we are offering a coupon worth 10% off any order. Furthermore, anyone who has purchased a pair of V-Socks will earn a coupon for 20% off their orders. Rule #49 applies; don’t share your coupon with non-Velominati and please don’t abuse these promotions. I’d also like to point out that this is not a Rule #58 violation; DeFeet sells their product direct to consumers via their website.

Keep your eye on this space as we’ll be looking to expand this program with our other partners where it makes sense. In order to access your coupons, log in to your account (or register if you don’t already have an account); you can access your coupons from either the Dashboard or your Profile page.

Vive La Vie Velominatus.

The founder of Velominati and curator of The Rules, Frank was born in the Dutch colonies of Minnesota. His boundless physical talents are carefully canceled out by his equally boundless enthusiasm for drinking. Coffee, beer, wine, if it’s in a container, he will enjoy it, a lot of it. He currently lives in Seattle. He loves riding in the rain and scheduling visits with the Man with the Hammer just to be reminded of the privilege it is to feel completely depleted. He holds down a technology job the description of which no-one really understands and his interests outside of Cycling and drinking are Cycling and drinking. As devoted aesthete, the only thing more important to him than riding a bike well is looking good doing it. Frank is co-author along with the other Keepers of the Cog of the popular book, The Rules, The Way of the Cycling Disciple and also writes a monthly column for the magazine, Cyclist. He is also currently working on the first follow-up to The Rules, tentatively entitled The Hardmen. Email him directly at rouleur@velominati.com.

  • ez - See Rule 5, that's how!

    Time, effort, and yes, even a bit of suffering.

    Cool news, Frank! Already using a bunch of gear from DeFeet, would love to add a wool base layer.

    Exactly, their shit is great I already use their arm warmers and gloves on nearly every fall, winter, and spring ride. I think I'll pick up a un-d tank  or two for spring/summer.

  • @frank Strong work. Absolutely love my defeet kit, wool arm and leg warmers, regular and wool shops.

    Gutted that they don't ship outside the US from their on-line store, though. Want one of their summer base layers.

    Do any of your local shops sell their stuff? I've never actually bought anything from them online, always through a shop here in town. I know that means you wouldn't get the discount then, though.

    I wanted to like the wool kneekers so badly, but my legs just aren't long enough for them.

  • @mcsqueak You can get some of their stuff but it's a bit more than their listed price even when you take into account discounts at this end.  Some off it goes out of stock very quickly like the knee warmers and some of it you never see like the wool base layer or the ice base layer.

    The 20% discount would make it worthwhile having a bit of a stock up. I may have to get some shipped to a mate in New York who is comming over in a couple of months.

  • @mcsqueak My legs are a bit stubby for the knee warmers but they're so good that I've been wearing them every time I go out on the bike despite only showing enough skin for 2 inch Belgian tan lines.

    There's no way I'm going back to bib tights unless it gets way down below freezing.

    How doth one rise about Level 4? (How is babby formed?)

    Join the conversation and your level will increase with time. Basically, it runs a highly complex (i.e. error-prone) algorithm that thinks about how many posts you've made in recent months and how active you've been and escalates you through the ranks.
