Yep, we are. That me, Tricia and Pete (Taxi777 here on BF) in the middle of the Tierra Bella Century out of Gilroy CA.
It was kinda neat having three people at different times comment on the jersey. Pete said he got some comments too. Maybe we'll get some new folks showing up here!
Here's a blog shill:
Extended tale of adventure and oddness on my blog.

Must be Summer with that number of jerseys appearing.
Well done on the ride. But get the legs to show a bit more.

Great pic! I enjoyed your ride report. Looks like Tricia's knee didn't get too banged up and she had the spirit to continue.

Hey, cccorlew:
I'll read your blog if you order another bunch of 50+ shirts!
(Actually, I already read your blog. Very nice. NOW will you order more shirts?! Don't need a new design. The classics are, well, classic!)

Taken from my posting that was some 6 hours before you posted.
That hill had taken it out of me so I just pottered on home to my daughters. She was in the front garden so she took a couple of pics of me on the bike. Believe it or not- I don't have many of them and the side view of me is in front of their house with their two beamers in the drive. The one of me going away shows you what shirt I was wearing today so feel proud of that shirt. The rest of you now have to get out and get some pics of the shirt in action.
Some of the honoured have the 50+ jersey but we don't get many pics posted of them. Then you go and post 3 in one hit. And on a century ride at that.
Still want to see the legs next time though If Tricia can do it-whats wrong with the other two. Perhaps they were drafting Tricia and just never had the chance to get warm.
