i think the only thing holding us back there is the cost. i prefer the low-tech approach of screening a logo and text onto a regular cotton patch; it would save time money hasle etc and look pretty perfect in an inperfect way. but i'll say it again, wool jersey, i'm in 100%.

It was offhoff who crashed, he said he had some pedal strike and slid along the sidewalk.

making sparks with the cleats on your shoes is always fun

FYI apparently bikes are cool in parking garages while skatesboard, well not so much. I took a pretty good slide after some pedal strike during the CV but nothing serious was damaged, just a knuckle.

Good riding with you all.

Yeah, I'm only in if it's a wool jersey along the lines of the one you posted anyway. I can buy a cheap poly jersey and screen/stencil it myself if I want something homemade.
