  1. I thought I'd start a thread for folks to show their designs for their
    team logos & shirts (if you have one). Let's see all those team
    shirts!

    Our team (Personal Roller Coaster) is getting shirts from
    www.zazzle.com. They're a site which allows you to get shirts with
    your own design, but one of the few that have dry-fit fabrics as an
    option. I got some nice shirts from there last year for our Lifestyles
    24 hour race, so went with them again. Anyway, if anyone wants a copy
    of our design, they can get them at this link:
    http://www.zazzle.com/steveyo/product/235546627704517732

    Here's the main team logo design, anyway. There's a small logo on the
    front pocket, and on the back, a large team logo with all the race info
    printed above.

  2. I like the changes you made, Steve! Thanks for your artwork.
    I know I'll get two of those shirts. What size did you ordered for
    yourself?

  3. Hey Vince. I got 2 medium dry-fits: 1 short sleeve and 1 long sleeve
    for me. Plus I got one golf shirt style for my dad (our support
    person), and kids' T-shirts for my son and daughter. Once you go to
    the link, you can select any shirt to put the design onto.

  4. Here is a team logo design that I threw together. We're all in different
    states so a team photo was out of the question unless it was from 1996.
    We may get some team jerseys printed up. Is it tacky to wear a jersey
    with your own face on it? Probably, but I'm all about endless shameless
    self-promotion.

    Team Goonies team photo was photoshopped (poorly) by me. Seeing how
    both Joe and Spencer are a few miles away in the UK.

    Yeah I saw that. I thought it was pretty clever. I knew I wouldn't be
    able to photoshop something like that and have it not look like it was
    photoshopped. I'm much better at graphic design stuff as opposed to
    realistic photo editing. I didn't spend too much time on this logo but
    I was really pleased with how it turned out. If we get jerseys printed
    up, I'll probably spend some more time on it.

  8. Unfortunately I couldn't use the phrase "Ride the Lobster" on my shirt,
    because it's copyrighted by the race. I made a new one. It's here:

    You can't copyright a phrase like "Ride The Lobster." You could
    trademark it.

    OK, Tom-Mr. Stickler-Holub. 😉 All I know is zazzle.com canceled my
    item because of the inclusion of the phrase "Ride the Lobster". When I
    emailed them for an explanation their response was as follows:

    Ride the Lobster (www.ridethelobster.com) contacted Zazzle and has
    asked us to remove any product that may infringe on their rights. To
    avoid any potential legal action against Zazzle, we have decided to
    remove your products from our site. This was done at the request of
    Ride the Lobster.

    They might be able to convince Zazzle that they own the phrase, but
    they wouldn't be able to convince a judge.

    And it's rather silly that they'd be trying to keep registered racers
    on Ride The Lobster teams from using "Ride The Lobster" on their
    jerseys. What's up with that?

  18. So, after (part of) our team did some relay practicing, we decided it
    would be nice to have actual bike jerseys with the back pockets. It
    just makes it easy carry the relay GPS thingy by quickly shoving into
    the back pocket. I found a site which does custom bike jerseys for a
    reasonable price, (www.zaavy.com). They're not cheap - $50 each or so
    - but not too bad for a nice bike jersey.

    Also, I redid our logo, so it looks like this now...
