I'd be up for a short sleeve cycling type jersey if there's another run, I have a gilet already that sees lots of use and now that I've morphed into a gradventourer/roadie lookalike my baggy mtb shirts are all wrong :???: . I'd also be up for an alt design as suggested by Scotroutes if that were to become the preferred option of the masses.

Love the 'boo Ts. Don't really use riding jerseys.

My mind boggles at the idea of the shirts. Possibly because I'm such a sweat-monster but all my riding attire needs to be closer to gym or running gear than cas' shirts and I see no practical benefit in them.

HYOH :cool:

What, you mean Rhayader Pizza Emporium? Great place once you'd got past the bouncers and security scanners :-bd . The sole reason we didn't get into any of the other places was because the chefs had all gone home just before we arrived. Must have been in a different timezone. What I particularly liked about the RPE was nobody else came in the whole time we were there, even though plenty looked through the window.

On the subject of gourmet food, I've just made a brew and headed for the biscuit stash cupboard. To show how one's mood can change in a split second, I was in a reasonable condition as I reached down for the new pack supposedly containing 8 caramel wafers lovingly crafted by Messrs T Tunnock & Co Ltd, Uddingston, Glasgow. Pick it up to find it is only a 4 pack!! I didn't think they DID 4 packs. Obviously (well not that obviously) I only require one at this point but it means there's only 3 left now and not 7. I'm in a black slough of despond.

Someone flog me a BBB jersey to cheer me up.

I probably shouldn't mention they've suspended production due to Covid, should I?

Well that just puts the tin lid on it. I wonder if the secret recipe is out there on some dark website somewhere.

Back on topic (sorry), I’d like a mid-weight, short-sleeved, zombie bear logo’d riding jersey, please. Or a short-sleeved plaid shirt style thingummy in subdued hues with a v subtle zombie bear somewhere.

I'd probably have another SS jersey if it was a different design/colour

I'd prefer a different item if that was possible, really like the bamboo t shirts

I actually have that exact shirt, I wore it today as it goes. I bought it as a #gravelwanker joke to myself, which is handy as it seems I'm the only one that gets it from the people I ride with.

That's good news, I'll have to go cold turkey until they get here, I ate my last one on Saturday.

Back on topic, I'd really like a long sleeve windproof, either in the green* with the current design to match my current jersey or in the same shade of green but with the zombie bear. I find that for most of the year it's too cold for a jersey on it's own**

*my new bike is green and it's only just been painted so I'm not re-painting it to match a new jersey :lol:

**unless there's a worldwide lock-down and then it's 20 degrees and sunny every day :roll:

I'm hoping for a short sleeve, full zip jersey, 2 sizes bigger than last time.
I also prefer more subtle designs, grey on black? Or the exact opposite, fluro green on pink ?

I was a little concerned about black but it appears we can add subtle reflective detailing ... which helps.

Not much good during the day though.

TBH, if it's a dark/earthy tone, it blends in as much (more?) than black does.

Do you mean that black stands out better during the day than something dark and earthy Colin?
