Custom commuter jerseys
I've been pondering making some custom silkscreened biking shirts for commuters. Ideally they'd be a nice high-viz technical fabric but nothing too exotic/expensive. Has anybody tried to do this (like for a local bike club) and found a vendor or product they liked?
Would you be interested in buying one or more?
What kind of slogan would you like to see? I'm thinking something easily readable and understandable like "ONE LESS CAR" in reflective ink

Velowear.com does custom jerseys. Maybe I'll design a catchy message and have a couple printed.

I would not wear anything which would possibly suggest to drivers that I think I'm better than them....I am in favor of bike advocacy but not at the expense of my health!
One Less Car makes people in my area want to run me over so that they can smirk and say to themselves "One less Bike".
I like simple non-confrontational but high-viz.

Count me in. Im torn between the <-- 3 FT MIN and Work to live, live to bike, bike to work. But if you're leaning for a commuter theme, I guess I'd go with the latter.
Perhaps after more brainstorming you can put up a poll to see what more people might actually buy. Hopefully there'll be a break point where the price might drop with a bulk order. It wouldn't hurt to ask.

I've been wanting a jersey that reads: "Same roads, same rules."
Partly because I see more bicyclists acting stupid (wrong way down one-way street, biking on the wrong side of the road, ignoring stop signs, etc) on my commute than cars.
