- Whoa oh oh oh oh, trainiacs.
Morning, momentous day here.
Just got back from the ole morning group ride
and wouldn't you know it,
but Paisley is a very fast pattern.
I didn't think so,
but I ended up winning a sprint against
somebody in the group who hasn't
lost a sprint in three years.
Fair and square.
I'm gonna have to widen these doors
if my head gets any bigger.
(upbeat music)
There you go. (dogs running on hardwood)
Before we get into all of the potential discounts
on Team Trainiacs new platform,
we gotta clean up.
I got company coming later
and this place is a pigsty.
That's the aftermath of a news day Tuesday.
(upbeat music)
This is the aftermath of a bunch of unboxing.
(upbeat music)
This is the aftermath of many of unattended bike mechanicing
is that a word?
Yeah, probably.
(upbeat music)
'Cause this is a triathlon channel,
not a mountain bike channel, right Pete?
This is from the aftermath of lots of dog cuddling.
Right, huh, right bud?
(upbeat music)
Leave all those camera mounts up there,
for when we start live streaming workouts.
I'm gonna have to start mounting cameras
all over the place.
Betsy!
(upbeat music)
Alright, there we go, presentable.
10% camera gear, 30% tri gear.
About 60% dog hair.
Okay, so if you've been paying attention
to some details about the Team Trainiac platform,
you know that a big part of it that I'm trying to build in
is essentially having it pay for itself.
We're targeting around $57 a month
and what I'm working out is deals
with all the companies that I know, like, trust,
that we can pass onto members of that trainiac platform,
so that the discounts that you get on things
that you'd buy day to day anyway,
will basically pay for that platform.
Pretty good deal, eh?
So, let's talk about some of them.
Number one, if you want to get yourself
some awesome strawberry shortcake speedos,
Pepper Togs, Peppapeppapeppa Pepper Togs
has offered up to a 30% discount on their togs.
Next one, I think this is where people are gonna go crazy.
But Roka, has offered, now this isn't totally clear
if this is on everything or just the clothing,
but I know that there is a discount on everything.
I'm just not sure if it's the same for the clothing
as it is for the wetsuits,
but it is a 25% discount, as far as I know,
on Roka clothing,
which hopefully also applies to wetsuits and all Roka gear.
That is big, that's big.
Bigger yet, Ventum has offered up to a 20% discount
on all of their bikes.
You buy yourself one bike
and they have an entry level bike
that comes in that like $2 to 3000 range right now,
training platform is paid for.
Now, you're gonna need to put some pedals
on said Ventum when you get it.
So, PowerTap, which is also the same company
that does Cyclops,
which is also the same company that does The Racks,
has offered a 20% discount on their power meters,
excluding wheels, but we like our P1 power pedals.
Pretty good, eh?
Pretty, pretty good.
Now next on the list, everybody loves them some swimming,
so we've worked out a deal with FINIS
to get 20% off all FINIS goods, including speedos.
Like, you could just stock up on speedos.
I know I do.
- Want me to hand model them for you?
- Oh here, these.
- Oooh. - Oh, those are nice.
- Beautiful hair. - Such nice, oh yeah.
- Oh my god. - Very nice hand modeling, Mel
Now, right in there with all the Cerus product line,
is the Cyclops.
There's 10% discounts on Cyclops smart trainers
and Cyclops wind trainers.
And I know there's a lot of trainiacs out there in Canada,
so there's a heck of a lot of trainiacs
that are doing a lot of training indoors.
Let's do it on Zwift on those group rides
that are gonna happen.
See how this is all coming together?
Now, everyone's gotta eat, we're trainiacs, it's what we do.
So, I've worked out a deal with Tribay Market.
It's basically a version of The Feed,
but from up in Canada
and they have offered a 10% discount on nutrition goods
and see here's the thing.
Because it's Canadian dollars, like monopoly money
and most of the trainiacs are in the States,
it's basically free.
Like they're essentially paying you
to get nutrition products through them.
Goodr sunglasses, which I have become a huge fan of lately,
A, because they make me look good,
B, because if you look good, you go fast,
C, because no Triathlon Kim actually said
that she likes these and I like that
because it's ridiculous and she doesn't like
anything that's ridiculous, except for me.
So, 10% off on Goodr shades.
And then finally, the last one I've got firmed up already,
you can get all the Paisley cycling kit you want from SCODY.
They've offered up to an 11% discount on everything.
Not just trainiac gear,
because if you don't want to go
and advertise Triathlon Taren written across your butt.
I mean, I'm all for it.
You can have SCODY written across your butt,
which I'm also all for.
And Paisley, as we established this morning,
is a very fast pattern.
Faster than you'd think.
Now, I'm also working on a few different deals
that are quite solidified yet.
Something for saddles, something for helmets,
you can probably guess which ones.
Something for shoes, but they're not quite
lined up just yet.
Basically, what I'm trying to do is set it up,
that everything that you have to buy in a course of a year,
just to survive as a triathlete,
you can get a decent discount on it.
Make the team training platform essentially pay for itself.
And we'd all look the same.
So when we go to a race,
and we like move around,
people will be like damn, who are all those people
in the Paisley kit, with the Goodr shades,
and the really cool looking Ventum bikes?
Thems people are trainiacs, is what they'll say.
Write stories about us.
Alright trainiacs, if you're into making this happen
and you haven't yet checked out the kickstarter campaign,
the link to it is in the description below.
We have well since passed the funding goal
that I was looking for,
but we still need to raise money.
I set that funding goal really, really low
and the idea was just to make sure that we hit something,
but to make sure that we can basically build
the entire team training platform as well as we can
right off the hop.
We're still raising funds to do that
and it just means that we can make it better quicker.
So, link to it is in the description below.
Thank you for watching me just being me,
now go be you.
It's a good quote.
It should be like, now go be you.
