TOPIC:

I've posted to the main thread about the patches. I decided to start a new thread for input and taking orders. That will be easier than searching through he main thread or leg threads. Here's a copy of the main thread post;

I've got a proof of the patch artwork shown here. What do you all think? It's basically the same as the tee-shirt with a minor change to the text. Make suggestions for changes here or I can start another thread. It labels the wearer as a flag carrier. Maybe I could drop the second 'r' in 'Rider' for some people that rode support or not. I want consensus on what to do. Also need to know how many to order. I think a minimum of 100 would do for a start. I was # 52 on the flag and I don't think there will be 20 more carriers after that. So 100 patches will cover the carriers with some extra if somebodies
want more than one. Cost will not be much. Maybe $3.00 each plus postage depending on quantity ordered.
The picture is way big. Actual size of the patch is 2 3/4" X 4"

Looks good though I'd suggest RIDE rather that RIDER. That would leave it open to supporters and any member who cared enough to explain what the relay is about.

Hoping postage to Canada would not be a problem. You can put me.down for 1

Thanks for doing this

I'd be in for one. Relay Ride sounds nice but rider implies that it is still at some point going to continue. I dunno, either way you guys do it I would be happy. Just do it.

I would buy it either way. You can put me down for 2.

I'm glad you brought this up.

I made it 'Rider' specifically to identify the wearer as one who carried the flag. I thought the carriers deserved something of their own for the time and effort they expended. For support riders we can make some patches with "Ride." It's only one little letter. Or maybe give the support riders the same patch as the carriers. After all, they did ride along.What say?

Rider is fine and i would wear it proudly . Either way I would be happy.
Thanks again

Looks great! Put me down for 2 ... With or without the extra "r".

Very Cool Tom! I like the design and copy. Put me down for one please. There should be many more that will be stepping up to claim theirs too!

Come on all you relay riders. WAKE UP!!! Time for hibernation is over!!
I have only about a dozen patches spoken for so far. We need a whole lot more to make this economically feasible. Order up and spread the word to others who participated last year and the year before. Holy crap it's going in to the third year.

Put me down for two Tom.
Mecca and I would both like one.

Thanks, Jim. I've got you down for 2. Arte you and Mecca going to make it to the rally in August?
