THE JOB

MERCHANDISE: handle all aspects of merch, including vendor relations, ordering, inventory, and order fulfillment;
RECORDING SECRETARY: responsible for agenda and minutes of conference calls and meetings;
TEAM DIRECTOR: we have folks riding for us all over, and they need some central support in sanctioned and unsanctioned events;

THE PERSON
Although Laurent Fignon (above left) is our favorite rider; we are looking more for the temperament displayed in young LeMond (above right). M. Fignon was brilliant and exciting, he was also temperamental and vain.
LeMond smiled through a lot of adversity, and let’s not forget who won in ’89.
Look, we understand that the list above is pretty long, and very varied, and don’t expect one person to be experienced in all. That’s where the Old School Work Ethic kicks in.
Send a short statement of why you want the job along with C.V. to [email protected].
*** HELPFUL TIP: please go down the list above and report back ***
Bike Law founder and bicycle crash lawyer Peter Wilborn has raced, toured, commuted, and ridden his bike daily for fun. In 1998, Peter had a bike tragedy in his own family, realized firsthand the need for lawyers who understand cycling, and devoted his law practice to Bike Law.
