CityCyclingEdinburgh was launched on the 27th of October 2009 as "an experiment".
IT’S TRUE!
CCE is 15years old!
Well done to ALL posters
It soon became useful and entertaining. There are regular posters, people who add useful info occasionally and plenty more who drop by to watch. That's fine. If you want to add news/comments it's easy to register and become a member.
RULES No personal insults. No swearing.
@srd, designing the jersey is the easy bit (wow custom jersey did our Balerno dads one at little cost, any logo scanned then printed, the BGDB palm tree for example could be replaced by Scott monument rocket)
Wow custom.co.uk
Organising the people, payment etc I find harder.
The original jerseys we did I also liked
I was talking to a guy at the hill climb who'd had some done up with a system he liked too.
I'm happy to try and sort orders and payment.
yes, scott monument, arthur's seat. castle/skyline would be nice.
think we can entice kaputnik to help?
the simplest way to Manage Finance and ordering etc should be a Simple Ecommerce plugin on the side and a Paypal account
@sd, you sometimes attract kaputnik if you mention cannibal seagulls.
I fancy a black top with a silvery line drawing of Scott monument rocket like the hornet ones or skull ones EBC are punting just now
The technology side for ordering to paypal can be setup. The hard work is in the design, ordering and order fulfilment.
But might be simpler to just do a group order and swap money for goods? If someone can do a design etc....
I would be in for the splash one
Rocket Monument would be cool too
Mr SRD has one of these http://www.m-bike.org/blog/2012/11/08/d-ride-cycling-jersey/
and I would think that something like that, or the BGDB, one would be cool: skyline across the back and CCE + 'rocket' on the front?
Detroit 4-4-2 as Blondie used to sing
Looks good to me
I have been contemplating a cheeky wee Torm woollen one in Black with yellow and red stripe - bit like raleigh
Will google line drawing of Scott Monument in a minute
SCRAN wanting paid for the line drawing and it does not look like a rocket.
THis looks groovy (largest monument to a writer in the World)

didnae work, last image of the images on the page I have linked to, click see all images and scroll to end, eerie night time shot
Seagulls you say? Herring or Greater Blackback?
Herring are the most evil
Bump.
Anyone willing to do design?
I will organise the order.
I'm not a designer but mightn't the Scott Monument on the front of a shirt look a bit phallic?
@cyclingmollie. That had not occurred to me. Still looks like a rocket to me. EBC Sale is selling their Wasp/Skull tops which are black with the detailed line drawings in gold or silver. Nice. I would put the rocket on the back and the strapline on the front.
I had been thinking of half the monument, up one side, with words on the other?
But also, more general skyline?
Skyline could be used as a delineation between different colour areas.
The skyline would be good. The shapes of the routes of the big purple lines on the Spokes map (WoL, Innocent, NEPN, NMW, MMW, canal etc.)? The outline of an Edinburgh stand?
A route map thing might be nice.
Oooh a nice New Jersey.
I was wearing my old CC Edinburgh one down in Englandshire last month and it was a good ice breaker at cafe stops.
I would defo be interested in another one.
I don't think the skyline works - it looks like the colours have run.
I think it would need to be more stylised than that to make it look less like a badly sweaty Global Hypercool t-shirt
I quite like the skyline (though I do use it often for work things).
I might be inclined to have the skyline as the top of a wide band, with the CCE logo / words in the band.
Here's some from "other" cities, whatever they may be (which are apparently available)
Quite like the route map on a dark background.
(I realise 2 of the 3 images are huge so have included them as a link so you can see outside the constraints of forum formatting)
I like the New York one. In part I think it's because the reflection reads like the view from across the East River. What about a pattern of raindrops?
