Sad, Munga as I won't see you till movember. Next week I'll be in Sydney and the missus wants to come down and stay for the weekend. The following weekend is the annual boys golfing trip so ride safe and I'll see you when I get back or at the swap meet on Sunday.

i swapped elantra his medium jersey for my large today. hopefully his fit as as good as mine now.

i heard some favourable comments on the jerseys at the no frills swap today too.
i think we might open up a run of these (minus the custom artwork ours have) in time for christmas.

comments?

these jerseys look great, even better than the initial provisional graphic representations suggested.

I am very interested in getting one, but was wondering whether subsequent releases are the same ? What is the custom artwork that will be left out, and what will re-releases look like ?

Artwork to be left off is just the names of the raturday group which placed the original order. Unless your name is Wal, waz, Munga, Elantra, vaeske or dan I think this is actually a bonus ;)

yeah i did a bit of rework between the one posted here and the one i sent to the printer.
still wasn't happy with the size of the stripes on the sleeves, but hey, i'm a housepainter, not a fashion designer!

as for artwork, the jerseys have some small details on the collar, and under the right arm which would be removed or replaced
at the moment i'm thinking the BRRR symbol on the right side of the collar could be replaced with BNA13, as this will be the 2013 release.
the logo under the arm will be removed altogether.
the symbol on the left side of the collar could be replaced, removed, or left as it is. it was only put there because i love pulp fiction.

comments?

ok, thanks.
From what ive seen, your more than handy in the graphic design realm. i wasn't convinced by the main font in the original graphics, but it looks good on the actual jerseys
Did you ditch the bike image and steel is real on the back of the jersey and just repeat the band and text like on the front ?
