T-shirts and Bumper Stickers are in the 'planning phase'

Alright all, since it's now officially winter up here in Canada, I'm going to busy myself with creating 1) a bumper sticker and 2) a T-shirt.

If the interest is sufficient enough, I might expand the selection to include more than just the single item.

So I'm going to select one or two of my more favorite 'bumpah stickaz' in the sticky bumpah stickaz poll on this board and put them on a sticker/T-shirt.

Does anyone have any images they'd like to offer up for including on a T-shirt/sticker - I'd likely take it and photoshop it to death so it will look a little more T-shirt- friendly.

Let me know, and if you do have links/photos, please send me a PM or hit my personal email at michael.sims@gmail.com.

I'll keep y'all posted on the progress.

Mike.

I like the "C-1 with the paddle thru it" that Adam uses on this site. Would look good on front of t-shirt

Ive got an idea, in light of Bob's recent Wheel Boy post:

a tee shirt that reads,

"Marko is God!"

oh the back, "C-1 forever"

Block letters

What do you mean "its winter"; you can barely see your breath, and the Gorge is still running.
Would like to place an order, please advise as to where, when, and how much.

I guess that's the advantage of paddling a river that's fed by farmer's fields with cow manure, the water's a little warmer ;-)

Acctually if the gorge holds for Sunday I wouldnt mind going - interested?

I'll keep you posted about the shirt/bumpersticker-- still havent prgressed much. Work gets in the way.

msims,

I am sure you have a few pics of me flailing around with my paddle that would make good examples of how not to paddle :roll: that would look good on a T-shirt :lol: ...

marko, in my mind you guy's have won that poll on playak, due to the following reaon:

- You have no big names (yet :wink: ) unlike EJ or Corran, who wuoldeven get votes from their hard core supporters even if their boats were garbage pails.

- You are mainly into making C1, while the others are making kayaks, which automatically gives them, due to the higher number of kayakers, a huge advantage.

Any word about canadian distribution? I still have room for another boat or2 in my backyard... :wink: .

Martin - got all my photos developed of the Magnetawan trip - here they are:

You've seen most of em - but the ones you took of me turned out really well. It even shows my pre-munch form just before I dumped! Snow's a nice touch.

Mike,

Thanks, I saw those pictures yesterday, showed them to my parents. Now my mom thinks for some reason that all canadian paddlers are nuts :wink: ...
