Love these jerseys
Wow! There are so many cute ideas. I don't have a creative bone in my body, but I love, love, love the one by ttaylor508 that has the neon yellow, green and orange with the big gear graphic. I ride on busy roads where I want to be seen and the brighter, neon colors help me to stick out.
Also, no elastic and 3/4 zipper are my preferences. My elastic bottom jerseys all bunch up on my backside
...lovely.
Can't wait to see the winner!----------------------------------------------------

I love this red gold and green jersey also with the big gear graphic- however the "she rides" I fear would get comments of an unwanted nature from passing motorists!!

With elastic :-) doesnt have to have tight elastic - just enough so it doesnt hang lifelessly at the bottom
Amazing design ttaylor508! Fab colours--

Bat - you make a good point. I think the "she rides" doesn't enhance the design. Since I ride alone, I'd prefer not to be so easily identified as a female.

She Rides?
Yep - I would agree with the "She Rides:... I didn't really think about it when I was first admiring the colors and the big graphic of the gears. I always ride with my DH and that sort of stuff doesn't cross my mind, although all of us should always remember that there are crazies out there that we don't want to focus on the fact that it's a woman on a bike. Great Point!

How about "One less car" instead ...? Might have a positive effect on drivers' consideration.
Half-marathon over. Sabbatical year over. It's back to "sacking shirt and oat cakes" as they say here.

I'm pretty sure people can tell I'm female whether the word "she" is on my jersey or not. And, at least around here, people are far more likely to try to run me off the road than make sexist comments.

Is this jersey only intended for roadies or to make political statements? I hope this jersey doesn't become a political billboard. I'd like to see something that just makes you smile. Several of these designs fit the ticket.How about "One less car" instead ...? Might have a positive effect on drivers' consideration.
