    May SS?

    To disable ads, please log-in.

    Is anyone interested? I'm happy to organize it if there is enough interest. Let me know. How about another T-shirt exchange?

    I would like to do it! As long as I don't have to organize it this time! Not that I don't like too. I did it the last two gift exchanges. I want to be on the other side this time. Does it have to be bike shirts though? I have a ton of them.

    I am in! How about something summery (or winter if you get a southern hemisphere gal). That could mean a t-shirt or something else?

    I think it's been over a year since I participated in the SS exchange! I'd love to join in this time...especially since we are finally 'settled'.

    I'm game for any type of exchange except water bottles...we've got way too many of those already!

    Count me in. I enjoyed the SS last time. T-shirts, water bottles, books, or what have you

    I've sat out for about a year, too.
    I'll play this time.
    How about a general "Get outside and play" theme? A little something to encourage all these fine people to get on their bikes, go for a hike, enjoy some fresh air and sunshine (regardless of your season).

    I would like to join in as well. I want to be able to know everyone here a little better since I am new to the forum. Can we do something within a reasonable price range?? I like the water bottle idea.

    I don't need anymore water bottles so if it became that exchange i would bow out. But t shirts have not been ruled on yet.

    I'm in, I haven't joined in on one for quite some time either. I'll go with whatever. It was fun last time I did it.

    Water Bottles...

    Just so all are clear on my statement.

    I just suggested it as an example of what might work. Yes, if you get specific they could run from $5-$20 US. Whatever is decided if we have to purchase many of them, I could see this becoming expensive. I do not think most would want to run up their bills on this. I don't know??? Because I have never been in on something like this before.

    Perhaps I need some education in this matter?

    It's like a Secret Santa exchange. Everyone who would like to participate puts their name in the hat - in this case PM the organizer with your name and personal info by a certain date. The organizer will then PM you the info from one of the other participating TE members. You only have to get(buy/make) for that one person.

    Right now we're only on the preliminary stage where someone suggests doing one and people weigh in if they want a certain theme. Some of the ones in the past have been water bottles from your local LBS, sharing favorite books, coffee/tea from a local roaster/tea house, winter gear, etc.

    Once the theme is decided than the organizer(s) will ask for a head count and ask for pertinent info. Like your size if it's going to be a t-shirt exchange.

    I hope that helps,
