L'eroica 2012

just a quick jersey update.......Ive asked Velocio if it's ok to use the forum logo on the shirts and he says its fine......a donation to the forum will have to be forthcoming though ;o)
I've just emailed Chad (yep, real name) at Oregon to get him to give me a ballpark quote for 15 jerseys with 2 lines of lettering on, delivered....and I've also asked him if any of his previous UK clients had been hit with import tax....it's another thing to think about and budget for if we decide to go ahead.
I am a bit worried about taking responsibility for everyone's dosh, to be honest though....I reckon I would have to set up a seperate paypal account so that people could pay by gift, before sending it all off when it is complete?
If anyone wanted to do this part of it, I would be happy to relinquish the reins!
I'll wait for a reply from Chad before putting a thread in classifieds to register interest and a poll to democratically choose the design/lettering......although I want a black one with black lettering on the white band!!

I have one from Oregon Cyclewear and wore it last year. The yarn is medium gauge, so it is quite thick. Last year, I was cooking in the near 40°C heat and I think it accelerated the dehydration process. Mine is black, so it may have made matters worse although funnily enough I did not get tanned at all last year. It's perfect on cooler days, but if the temperature rises, it may not be ideal. If it had full length zip, then I think it would have helped.

Also, someone mentioned Woolistic stuff being made in China; Chad's goods are also made in China, if anyone gives a toss.

And, yes, I am in for this year again. Wife and daughter have also entered this year -- got seduced by last year's scene, apparently.

Peter V, will I see you at Retro Ronde in July? I am planning to be there unless shit hits the fan at work...
