RidingGravel.com To Offer Jersey For 2017- by Guitar Ted
RidingGravel.com has announced a jersey will be offered to you, our readers (and listeners), for the upcoming 2017 riding season. However; before we can do that, we are asking for your assistance. Below you will see two renderings. One is for the “Dark Blue/Orange” choice and the other is for the “Light Blue/Orange” choice. What we would like to know is which of the two would you actually order.

The jersey design chosen by you, the readers, to be produced
This is how it’ll work:
- The initial order will be a preorder. We’ll offer free shipping to the first 10 people who preorder. There will be a short preorder window and the turnaround will be approximately 4-5 weeks. We’re aiming to get this whole process going so that you could have in hand mid-January.
- After that, the jerseys will be available for you to purchase as one off items. The price will be slightly higher and you will pay for shipping. Those turnaround times that will have a turnaround time of approximately 5-6 weeks.
- Price is yet to be determined along with other fine details.
Right now, we are just gauging interest and trying to see which colorway you folks might be interested in.
So, make some choices now and hang on for the results of the surveys. Once we have made a final choice for the design, we will be giving final details on the jersey and how you can pre-order one.
Make your choice for either the “Dark Blue/Orange” or “Light Blue/Orange” known by answering the polls above. Or go to RidingGravel.com’s Facebook page, like it, and comment there on the post about the jersey. You can also always contact us via e-mail by sending your message to Guitar Ted at guitarted@ridinggravel.com or to Ben at ben@ridinggravel.com. We will give you until Wednesday, December 7 to decide on the polls, then we will post the results and fine details.
UPDATE: December 9th, 2016- And The Winner Is…………
Stay tuned for pre-order details and more coming soon!
Thanks,
Guitar Ted & Ben

Please, no more orange. All for something more visible than black, but no more orange.
I like them both but are the colors shown accurate? The red shown doesn’t look red And How About Cost?
Pretty sure they said orange, so it would be inaccurate if the orange looked red.
@roveral: The color is Orange on both choices with either a really dark blue, light blue, or black. Cost is TBA at a later date once we have gauged interest in this project and have determined a color choice.
I voted knee warmers, but in reality would prefer full leg warmer length on that.
Make it possible for those of us who have a slight gut to fit into these please.
Put me on the free shipping list.
I like the dark blue and orange. I think the orange really pops well off the dark blue. Guitar Ted should go on one of the sleeves.
Made my votes, will check back on Dec 7th for the results. Thanks GT!
I’d vote for something that doesn’t look like a lycra bike jersey. 😉
It’s Dec 9th What are the results?
In another week or so my disposable income will be all disposed of so I think you should put ordering details out pretty soon.
Anything ever come of this?
@Jeremy- Not yet. Soon though. Stay tuned…………..
Who will be making these? Cut and fit determines if I am in, but if its Podiumware I am in! Any word on preoder date?
@Rich- It is Podiumwear……..but- The pre-order went in already. We expect to have the jerseys and other things in hand any day now. That said, there may be availability of one offs. Stay tuned. Sorry that you missed out on the initial order.
