EPO T-Shirt
Check out the EPO T-Shirt in the wild. Richard over at cyclelicio.us bought one and visited Amgen headquarters.
About the EPO T-Shirt:
The EPO T-shirt is a tongue-in-check design that is based on the STP logo. The quote below the letters says “It’s the Racer’s Edge”
Slight correction: Amgen HQ is in California. I’m at the EPO manufacturing plant in Longmont, Colorado. They use genetically modified hamster ovaries to pump out the the synthetic human EPO hormone. About 500 people work there — about 100 of them belong to the company cycling club.
Thanks for the clarification. That is an impressive percentage of cyclist to a company. No wonder they thought it would be a good idea to sponsor a race.
What percentage of races do you think the AMGEN company cycling club wins? 99% or so? For some reason they probably dominate the local racing circuit…
Hmmmmmmmmmm……..
