Founded in 2013, Ornot is a cycling apparel company driven by minimalistic design (designed here in San Francisco!), domestic manufacturing, and an emphasis on having fun on the bike - as their playful name suggests. Ornot is a new sponsor to the Supermarket Street Sweep, but they made a big commitment by donating two thermal jackets, two $75 gift cards, three pairs of socks, and three water bottles!

Jess Chan is a friend of the Sweep, and is a bad ass on and off the bike. She's led many of the Tuesday night women's rides out of Rapha Cycle Club for over a year, she's been on many a bike tour, recently celebrated "New Bike Day" with the frame she made in a frame welding program, and is an excellent designer of aesthetic, functional gear. Jess has ridden the Sweep, but this year, she made the bags pictured below exclusively as Sweep prizes! They include two sets of front panniers, two hip pouches, and two tool rolls. Some lucky winners will get these one-of-a-kind bags and be ready for more bike adventuring! Thanks Jess!

Mettle Cycling's namesake is based on having the courage to follow through despite facing difficulties. From made-to-order camera straps to a wide array of neckerchiefs, Mettle Cycling is a great go to for a unique gift for that special cycling someone.
