Sign me up for one! I voted for Cuda's, but they're both great designs. Just let me know when we're ready to order.

We should be able to get either cut by personal preference. I know the BikeForums jersey order was a mix of club and race cuts no problem. I'll probably go with another club cut, but it comes down to personal preference.

Ok I am sorry. Been riding for a short time now. What is the difference between Race and Club?
How are the sizing? I wear an XL in the Pearl Izumi Bert and Ernie, but have seen some where I fit better in a 2XL. My sport coat is a 44 Athletic. It is like I am in between.
Edit:
I saw Hobart's answer to the cuts. Does it really cut down that much on the wind resistance? It's not like when they said Emmit Smith cut down on wind resistance from shaving his head is it?

You Know!? For Kids!
Not sure how much advantage is gained from aerodynamics, but I like a snug fit just to keep the flapping down, esp. on windy rides, etc. I guess will have to trust the manufacturer. Maybe if you tell them what brand and size jersey you wear, they can offer some guidance, once we get to the actual ordering stage.

My goal is to get to the point where I look good in the race fit! Club cut for me all the way. Trust me, it will look better for the forum if I get a club fit.

Race cut fits tighter than club cut. I have the BikeForums jersey in a medium club cut and it fits close, but not tight. Simular to my medium PI jersey.

I will take a Club fit. I don't have my hot figure I used to.
Working on it though!

EJ123, see the first or second post where I mention that once we have 10 orders of a Short Sleeve road jersey of your choosen design, then we can order you a MTB/BMX style jersey from Champion.

Cuda -- When the designs are submitted to be made, are the logos on the sides of the Red design going to be reversed? Right now they are upsidedown when in the riding position.

Yeah. I'll be sure we're not dealing with upside down text. 
(have to admit my jersey design had upside down text for a while too before I corrected it)
Both Nathan and I have to move out designs to the Champ-Sys template for submission to them so we'll get each design perfected. Good eye there kevin.

Sizing
Anyone have a jersey from customcycle (Champ-Sys) in 44 or 46? I am in between and having a dilemma on what size to get.
Site is not too helpful with info.

Cuda -- How is everything going with the jersey orders? Does it look like we will have enough orders to get one or the other?
