Custom Jersey

With my regular riding partner out for the season with a back injury, it looks like I'll be doing some solo riding.
I hate solo riding.
Having this jersey made up. Maybe if drivers know they are being recorded on video (RTC715 in back, GoPro in front) they'll be nice.

Funny I was just thinking we pinnies with this on it:


but it would also go nicely on the back of a custom jersey

Yes, I have several from them, along with bibs. I don't know what special fabric they use, but they are the most comfortable jerseys I've ever worn. Excellent wicking properties. And, it's fun designing your own, although you can make yourself crazy with all the color combinations.

Cool, but that's a lot of text for someone driving 30+ mph while supposedly watching the road.

And, a group we criticize for not seeing or paying attention to us. Are they really going to read the back of a jersey?

I admit, I've long thought of getting a hi-viz yellow t-shirt, and on the back, in large friendly letters, the words, "PLEASE DON'T KILL ME".

I would change it to say, "SMILE! YOU ARE ON..." and then the camera icon. No need to say please and thank you. The law is not optional, and we should not have to engage in stupid pleasantries to get people to follow it.

I think I will continue to rely on my Varia radar/light. Having said that, I have zero problems with the drivers where I live.

I don't know about you, but I would be more prone to responding positively to "Excuse me, would you please move?" than to "Get the *%$# out of my way!" Our society right now could benefit from more "stupid pleasantries".

I used to have a jersey that had a logo similar to this


on the back. People would drive into the next county to give me room…and Colorado counties are huge!
