I dunno, the GS guys might've pulled their heads out their arsés by now, but anyone who stiffs me gets to experience first hand how well I hold a grudge. I leave it up to people like that to make me change my mind, but they never do.
Kelly was very good to me in the early days. I think the woman who ran the place was called Jeanie? I can't remember actually. Only problem with Kelly was they were a little unadventurous and wouldn't take any risks with the designs despite the fact that they would drool and fall over themselves at my more radical designs. "I'd LOVE to produce that but...." was a common phrase, although I think the rest of that sentence eventually went something like "...but I'm too busy going out of business being mediocre". Lovely people though.
Two other top people I should mention - Wolf Schussig ex Western Cycles now working at Grand Prix cycles in Elsternwick
I think, and Geoff Ward at Bikecorp. Two guys that gave me a break when I needed it any whom I can never really repay.
FYI the only retro jerseys I have from the old days are some of those original Look and Mavic jerseys I designed back in 94 I think, as well as one of the original revamped TFM jerseys that I designed too. I do have a holey pair of Kelly tights though! *heh* oh, and some old sketches.
Man, I'm a chronic underachiever.
