Hello everyone. Welcome if you’re new, welcome back if you’re not. I’m writing to you from the comfort of my bed – was on a big ride round Cambridge and its surrounding hamlets yesterday with Brooks, the saddle makers. I’m knackered but had a lot of fun, blog post incoming. I had to get up early to get everything ready for today (probably could have scheduled this but I’m not a professional). Nothing crazy, just making sure it works etc, I’m not even sure it does.
Anyway. The reflective t-shirts I’ve been teasing about IRL and OL are now up for pre-order. There’s a link to the store up in the top right of this page or here for email readers. We’re doing it like this because I do not have the money, space or time to carry stock – Like I said, I ain’t gone Pro® yet but this gets it closer. If I fuck it up the first time round, we’ll have it fixed the second. I’m a mistake-making Human Being™, but I’m very sure we’re all in agreement that we’d rather a have a dumb ape with Hands® doing this than Skynet.
Speaking of dumb apes – Real 100% human beings not from concentrate made this shit happen. Jay the absolute gent from Forty Forty Printhouse printed these up for us in the same studios we all work from. I got introduced to him by Resident Riderz® Rich & Jan so this is well and truly a Milton Keynes labour of love. Jay also rides bikes, listens to hardcore, likes clothes and basically just Get’s It®. He knew what I was trying to do the second I said “Can we make it 3M?”. We ran the road testers to friends and family to begin with just to see if they’d hold up a battering. They do. If these go down a treat, there’ll be more. we just had to K.I.S.S this first time round before getting too cocky.
Finally, pre-order will shut next Monday (02/06) so you’ve got the whole of this week to figure out if you want one.
Love to you all, and thank you.
