  • You're guess is as mine as good.

  • Cute.

  • Smashing it, Velocio. Anyone would think you'd recently quit your day job to work on LFGSS!
    Count me in for a Large and approximately 0.8 novice race wins per year.

  • Flesh coloured. Some will have to deal with that.

    Also already done

  • In latex bikini?

  • It's your jersey.

    If you don't want your username, you can put whatever you choose. You're the one that will wear.

    I was suggesting it as the low contrast pattern on the fabric, not the pocket embroidery

  • Ah.

    No, the underlying pattern isn't going to be higher enough contrast to be read. It's purposefully understated. Just enough to break the monotony of a large block of very dark (near black) grey.

  • can I suggest this as a tweak for the back?

    It's good to have an identifier on the collar that is visible from behind [If you have lfgss'ers racing at the track or at hillingdon etc and they want to help each other out, tactically, then the collar is quite visible - there's a lot of black jerseys out there]

    it also follows the orientation of the cap stripe

  • May do that.

    It was one of the options Milltag drew up too. But was on one of the earlier drafts I rejected (it had the banding in full around the cuffs and lower hem and was a bit much). Now I've stripped everything else back it looks better there.

  • Can you give us a clue about the number of characters we can have on the arse bit?

  • 15?

    Honestly, I've no idea. I will ask later.

  • Still looks like that Roller-Courier lot or that "GS Groupetti" club or whatever they're called (I think they're all the same club anyway, that's what some old guy at the jumble told me).
    Or even a poor man's Sky.

    Can you not have the stripes in 'pukes on cock green' ?

  • Or Nyan-cat rainbow?

    Anything!

  • Oh, I'm the one doing it.

    No.

  • Any colour aslong as it's black.

    Fucking hipsters.

  • Oh, I'm the one doing it.

    No.

    Never had you down as a 'pale blue' kind of guy, D.

  • I was always more a foie-gras-pink kinda guy, or hotel-scrambled-eggs-beige.

    Would you prefer that selection?

    (The blue works)

    I'm colour blind so not bothered. I think this is a great thing you do (the club not the jersey). Any official help you need just let me know.

  • I'm also colour blind, no-one should trust me with colours.

    That said, Stuart Murdoch from B&S is also colour blind and that didn't stop him creating decent albums covers:


    Doesn't look like an eye test at all, no sirree.

  • I like the club idea, but I think mostly-black jerseys increase the likelyhood of black-logo weeks. Do Not Want.

    More blue, or has this been done?

    Looks less sky too.

  • Numbers time, trying to get a ball-park estimation of kit runs, membership size, etc. Want to figure out just what I'm getting myself into.

    Thoughts right now that directly affect you:

    • Membership of LFGSS CC to be free or very very cheap (token processing amount)
    • No commercial sponsorship (initially, to be reviewed later)
    • LFGSS CC Jersey will be in the £35 > £45 range, may be closer to £45
    • If you've never had a British Cycling race licence, year 1 bronze level will be free which gives you a provisional licence, though year 1 of silver level is probably better if you intend to race and would be a £15 discount.


    Thoughts that are general:

    • It will be non-profit, registered as a CASC (look it up)
    • The spirit of the club is "Fuck it, let's give that a try" and to encourage people to dip their toes into various sports in the cycling world
    • There will be no centrally organised club rides, you can organise your own
    • The club existing, and being substantially sized will help open doors to facilities we might not have access to otherwise
    • Nothing about LFGSS CC stops you from riding for another club, in fact if you're taking it seriously you'd probably want to, we're a grass roots springboard only


    In the list... please put your username, and whether you would buy a jersey (quantity irrelevant, ballpark is all we need) and finally whether or not you're likely to want to hold a BC race licence (first season is free if you never have held one before).

    Simple format of the list:

    name +jersey +race

    Where "+jersey" is only added if you're buying one or more, and "+race" is only added if you will hold a race licence with LFGSS as your club.

    1. Velocio +jersey +race
  • Do BC license packs still get sent to the club secretary every year? (In existing clubs)
