Retraction on the T-shirts

Oops. Turns out Di has been talking with some of the other Sherpas about t-shirt ideas, and I stomped all over that with my last post. Sorry Di, and others working on the idea! Please continue to march on the supporter's gear, and keep in mind that T-shirt guy Jay has offered his help with them as well.

I think a nice tri-topo with a bold, simple design would still be a great idea for the participants. I'm gonna contact a couple of peeps to solicit designs.

I like the sounds of that!

Let me know what you have in mind and I can get some pricing together and see if we can put together a package for the entire group.

Let me know! Mr. Tea doesn't have a blog, but I'll pass the info along to him. He's really interested in doing this. It's so hard to see Sherpas sometimes during a race.

The idea was to include athletes and support crews. Come up with something bright so that is would stand out with a cool logo that would represent the bloggers and their families. If that sounds like the wrong idea - please let me know.
Thanks -

Even though I'll be wearing the Outlaws colors with the rest of mt hometown team I think the idea of a CDA Blog team kit is excellent. There is nothing like being out on the course and having a bunch of your similarly clad peeps on the course.

Of course everyone is welcome to be a New Mexico Outlaw for the race and I can place the order with Louis Garneau ;-)

BTW if you guys do want to go with a nice sublimated kit Louis Garneau needs a 7 to 8 week lead time from when the order is placed.

I think we should move forward with something. I'm not much help but can be wherever you need me :)

And I'll wear whatever, I'm not picky.

Ok, here is an idea....

Actual race gear would be very expensive and I am not equipped to do it, but I can connect us very easily with some great companies.

I think short sleeve and long sleeve t's are the way to go for both the racers and the sherpas. If someone can put together some art (vector or eps), I can get together a price sheet and order form for everyone to use.

I will also take care of shipping all of the shirts out to everyone who wants them.

What does everybody think...shoot me an email if people are up for this (triguyj@gmail.com)

I think this is a great Idea. But my question is are we shooting for some type of polyester tri shirt for the athlete's? something that breathes good? I'm just asking.
