BB Jersey - A quick poll.

Okay, there seems to be some interest in a new batch of jerseys, so I thought I'd try and gauge what people would prefer ... oh and obviously you're not committing yourself to anything by taking part.
Tick whichever boxes apply to you.
Here's the previous jersey - short sleeve, half zip, back pockets and Big F'off cuddly bear.

I'd also have ticked big F'off grizzly bear logo!

What do I click for a jersey like this?
You don't ... you just give On-One £40.

Can you explain your thinking on these a bit more:
I wouldn't want any company logo's
I wouldn't mind the odd subtle and applicable company logo

Ditto :)
If you have the tent pegs sticking out of one pocket, you need a packet of haribo sticking out of the other

While drawing up the poll questions I wanted to cover all bases (or at least what I could think of) and I thought that there might be a possible option to 'invite' certain companies that are closely related to bikepacking / bear bones to add their logo to the jerseys ... like I say, just a thought.

Thanks, that's what I thought, but wanted to check
My preference is short sleeve (so you can add arm warmers if required), full zip (so you can "manage" your bib-shorts more easily), discreet BB logo (unless there's a grizzly option) and subtle company logos.

Ditto - I like the grizzly logo too (grrrrr!)

There was no questions about colour... What sort of colours are you thinking? It has to work with my helmet and not clash with my bike...

Not sure yet ... however, it won't be anything over the top. It's no good having a jersey that looks filthy after a couple of hours.

I assume you missed

from the end of that statement? ... if not, then you sir are a tart

Presumably sponsors makes the jersey cheaper?
(this isn't a loaded question by the way!)

That would be the plan, if we went that route.

In that case, if they were bikepacking related ones and relatively subtle, I'd be up for them!

In fairness, if Stu organises it, as it'll be a jersey with his branding, then its not that bad is it? If its a third party or member doing it then it would be different
A bit of 'customer insight' to inform the design and gauge demand, then design, produce and supply.

That's right ... it's more about finding out what would be most popular rather than trying to design something that'll please everyone*.

Because as we all know, this ranks high in the league of impossible alongside platting snot and turd polishing.

I'm assuming that these will be made to order and you'll want the money up front to save you being stuck with a load of jerseys and money out of your bank account.

Yeah, it'll be a pre-order affair Bryan. If I were trying to turn a profit then I'd take the risk.

I based my life / working career on turd-polishing
Hey, if you're happy doing it that's all that matters

Although a turd can't be polished, in my experience you can sometimes get away with rolling them in glitter
