New year, new way....
So its a new year now so i figured i definitely needed to update the blog again and alot has happened since december 23rd so i figured i'd start right back where i left off.
Dec 23rd- So this was where the blog left off just before me and my good friend/co-worker Nick baker headed down to renown, Tent City, and childrens cabinet. Well here is a picture of me in full santa getup toting the bag around the childrens oncology wing.
it was such a big experience for both me and Nick just seeing these young kids that were super sick get so stoked on us just bringing them little gifts that we have picked up through the last charity race we did. It was realy great to see it all come full circle though. Oh and here is absolutely the cutest girl that we ran into at renown. She waited to be released from the hospital because she heard that santa was coming that day.
she was sooo tiny but she was the sweetest most appreciative girl i think i've ever met.
New Year- So now that its a new year we here at j broski delivery are trying to make everything we do and how we operate more professional. For starters we've made new waybills and now i am currently working on making our manifests, contracts, aswell as a bunch of other neccesary document. Also keep and eye out for some of our new sponsors in the works. Oh and here is our new way bill.. we think its pretty swell.

Busy Busy week.. and some christmas cheer today..
So for starters today is santa day for us here a j broski delivery. At bout 2 o clock we will be making our rounds to the renown childrens ER aswell as their pediatrics section and handing out the gifts that we both raised at the race last sunday and the larger amount of gifts that we decided to purchase.Anyways we are very glad that renown has worked so closely with us in allowing us to bring these kids toys as most people dont realize that most kids that have to stay in the ospital dont get many christmas presents because their parent are to busy trying to pay for the mass amount of bills that staying at the hospital accrues.
On the other more business side of things we have been absolutely swamped this week. Such as yesterday with us literally riding around for bout 50 miles of delivery through that awful blizzard and the worst headwind ever on longley haha but when you get into this business you gotta just push it hard and know what your getting into. so anyways thanks to everyone that has been a part of this wonderful series of races and to the community for showing us so much love.

New shirts in the werks...
SO We've been talking bout shirts for way too long.. mainly because we dig fashion but prefer function. Thus we are working on making some reflective T's to keep both us.. and you completely safe while out riding our bicycles. We have been talkingh to a bunch of lacal screen printers and have been testing waters on printing costs, ability to print the designs, and of course timelines needed to print. While these bad guys arent in true living form yet here is what they are going to look like..
These are just vector templates so they cutoff a little bit of the reflective u-lock detail on the back but we are really stoked on this.. and can't wait to get them made we will start doing pre-orders in a couple of weeks

A fresh eye never hurts..
So we are proud to announce and so stocked to welcome one of our good friends Nick Baker joining our team.. Seriously this is one of the most stand-up guuys i know.. plus this kid is wicked smart. Thus we hope to use him for anything we possibly can and he does math well so thats a definite plus.
For some of you reno folk you might recognize this guys as one of Blackhole Body Piercings top piercers.
but since then he has decided to forgo with the changes of life and pursue his edumacation here in town at the prestigious University Nevada Reno. With this he's got more time to get school done and more time to roll with us and help expand this little home based courier company into something great. I Mean look how hard this kid is he's gotta ride with us right..? haha
But really.. Nick is a supernice guy dont let him intimidate you.. if you see him out and about say hi.. if he's delivering to your home/office/parking spot/ whatever tip this guys well cuz you know he deserves it...

I'm still bad at this, but were doing good...
Hello again people who actualy look at this page. Sorry i havent been updating lately but once again it has been for good reason. We've got tons of new clients aswell as some new love from companies etc. One of the big things thats happened as of late is the two Non-Profit events we did so let me give you the lowdown on those.
Event#1 went great we had a good time but some stuff was definitely dis organized such as the patagonia stop. haha. everyone was swinging by the back (including me to see if the checkpoint worker was there) and he turned out to be on the front side but regardless of that everyone had a great time and walked away with a grip of prizes. Plus we were able to raise some money for Reno Bike Project.
Event #2 So this event was very small (we had prizes for a race of 40+ people) and because only ten people showed up i was very worried that we wouldnt raise that much food for The Evelyn Mount Foundation. Boy was a wrong. Those ten racers raced and collected about $400 in food and almost each one of them picked up a turkey (so they could skip one checkpoint haha)Thus i was more than happy to give out the $1k+ in prizes to all those guys and everyone that entered at bare minimum got 2 pairs of defeet socks aswell as a cycling cap along with two issues of urbanvelo. Everyone was stoked.
(If you wanna see some more pictures from these events check out the Facebook Album
also check out our new blog roll off to the left and keep a track of who else gets added to the sidebar because they are all great companies that love helping us out and also enjoy giving us prizes to give to all you racers out there.
