Speed Accessories
Not a whole lot new going on here. Went on a couple short rides this weekend, but the fam was in town, so we did some sightseeing and some chilling out.
I did, however, take a little time to tackle some artistic endeavors this week. I’ve been shooting some emails back and forth with Eric from Canari and it sounds like they have a pretty good gig going for custom stuff. Not too expensive and no ridiculous minimums. They even are willing to mix and match styles to meet minimums.
That means you downhill guys can even get a jersey with HandlebarSandwich on it that’ll fit over your body armor. You’ll be the most fashionable fellow on 8″ of travel.
So, my plan is to throw together a few different designs and then put em up for a vote on the site. I threw together some quick thoughts a couple nights this week. Check ‘em out, and let me know what you think so far.
First up is a classic Argyle print. Timeless. Or something.

Next up, I decided to do a little 70′s retro action with a disco theme. Think Boogie Nights
Like I said, these were a first stab, and my goal is to get about 4-5 different design concepts to vote on, and then I’ll spruce up whichever one comes out on top. Let me know what you think so far, and if you have any suggestions for any other ideas, and I’ll throw together a mock-up.
And now, I’m off to do a little packing. Rumor is that I’m headed to moab this weekend. Bitchin’


I gotta roll for the tourquise and olive design….don’t see that every day. Plus, the font type on this one exhibits a certain laissez-faire attitude commensurate with the color choice and pattern. By the way, the font looks strangely similar to the font type used in trailers for “Zach and Miri”….which just adds to the mystique.

I kinda liked that one because it was different as well. I’m not sure if I should go more brown than olive, though. It looked browner on my computer at home, and now that I’m looking at it on my computer at work, it’s definitely olive.
