T-shirt would be good, if not the stickers. Some one needs to take charge and do it. Bags not it.

Might work up some Tange 7 once these are done. And maybe a Reynolds 007.

OK, better do some real work for a while before I go home for the day. This one is probably too much of an in-joke for widespread acclaim.

OK gents (and possibly ladies), here we go.

http://www.cafepress.com.au/boxofsand

"Box Of Sand" webstore selling 532, Gaspipe and Clunker shirts. I will probably add another Reynolds-based one soon. It's just short sleeve t's for now. CafePress were cheaper off the top than RedBubble, and a few others, by a good few dollars. Shipping seems to be reasonable, from what I can see. Order two, order three, fit out the family for cheap. I've bought a few of the ringer T's from other webstores, and they hold up pretty well.

If you want long sleeve shirts, womens, mugs, etc, or if you've got suggestions for other versions, let me know and I'll see what I can do. I've taken advantage of a pretty quiet spell at work to do this, and it looks like that will end on monday morning and its business as usual.

Financial disclosure: I have priced these at $2 above CP retail per item. If I make enough to buy one myself, I'm happy.

Nice work Jim,

I just like that it uses USA sizing, so that even a fat bloke fits into an extra large.
I was going to buy a fast, stylish bike, but I looked in the mirror & thought "you're not fooling anyone, you know"

Nice one Jim, good luck with it.

How about

"reynolds 5.56"
"tubes for gun riders"

My fave is still the Colombo one ;)
I ride 25s on the basis that they divide more easily into 100 than 23s.

Yeah, I had a good laugh at the Columbo one. It's great. I would definitely buy the 007 one on a t-shirt though.
