    Life goes by pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, and do whatever you want all the time, you could miss it.

    I've never tried this before so I really have no idea what I'm doing.

    I'm going for something somewhat feminine without being too girly or loud. I like simple. I guess it could be any color, but I went with green for a couple of reasons. First, I don't see many green kits out there. Second, I was going for something kind of earthy.

    Any suggestions?

    I like all of them, but Loopybunny's design is understated---I haven't seen anything like it and I really like it. It would be great in more vivid colors, particularly since the graphic is black. Orange? Or even a more neon-ish green or a blue & green.

    I like it too. All of them are great but loopybunny's made me stop and really study it. It's very simple but classy.

    Maybe it's coincidence, or some thought, that the regular cyclists and regular TE members (so far), have submitted designs that provide cyclist visibility while riding.

    I was having a similar thought, sideways....

    that the "Fall" jerseys would be great to wear in any season except fall. And the "Southwest" jersey would be nice in the Northeast.

    Other than that... even the bright colors in the Spring jersey IMO don't overcome the predominant colors that are the same colors as road, sky and hillsides.

    Maybe I'm too much of a grouch in my old age. I love a lot of these designs, as with the last round, but I wouldn't consider for a minute wearing them on the bike, unless on an organized ride that was so big that any motorists would be aware of it and there was no chance I'd be in a group smaller than five... and I rarely participate in those.

    More yellow please!

    Hmmm---well, Loopy's riding habits don't matter to me because I love her/his design.

    Loopy, just to clarify, I love bright colors which is why I suggested something bright. Also contrasting colors---like turquoise blue or lime green with black. Doesn't have to be hi-viz yellow or anything like that. I like the purple version but then again, I like purple. You've come up with a design that is classy and if TE makes this one, I'll likely purchase it if it comes in a color that I like (despite the fact that I already purchased a jersey this year and have no room for more).

    My family/friends and I have a little 'team' named for my sister who is battling cancer, and we custom-designed jerseys. They are white/green/black and afterwards we noted how easy it can be to find us in a crowd due to the lack of many green jerseys out there. So I hear ya about that one!

    Lovely design by the way!
