XTerra T-Shirt Design

[limewave]

So, casually over the weekend the race director mentioned I was designing the tee-shirts for the XTerra tri that's in two weeks. TWO WEEKS. I didn't think he was serious, but he was. So, I've had all of one hour to dedicate to it. What do you guys think? I'm not sure if this will transfer well onto a tee shirt. I'm wondering if I should simplify it more. Opinions, critiques encouraged.

Yep not so sure about the transfer. Perhaps put the "Fight, suffer, burn" below and in a black-based font (inverse of what you have now).
have the three pics top aligned and the xterra below fight, suffer, burn....

the date inset with the swim pic is cool.

ohhh... I likey.....I hate all of the race T-shirts that I got this summer. I like yours!

I like it!...except had trouble deciphering the words in the current fade-y color--the "f's" particularly.

OHHHH LIME!! I LIKE!!! Are you a graphic artist???
HA! Clearly I need to PM you! I'm starting my own business and I need "talent" such as that!
WOW! Very cool indeed!!

I don't think the mid-range grays will work.
The solid black rider in the middle panel is good and bold though it may end up looking like a traffic sign if it's oversimplified...

I think this would be good as a poster but a t-shirt should be simple and bold.
I like the way the three words are at an angle, it conveys something, I don't know how to phrase it.

one of my favorite shirts is for a 100 mile motorcycle race thats no longer run called the Blackwater 100. The image was of a skeleton on a dirt bike with the motto "throttle or die"

Thanks for the suggestions. I'll rework it tonight or tomorrow. I appreciate the help!
