I was hoping for a "if I can reach your mirror, I will tear it off and throw it through your window" t shirt, but I suppose I could start with this. the guy who is doing this was a high school teacher I had in florida-very good, involved, caring educator. he probably doesn't teach anymore.

Yea... I like the bright yellow jersey. I wish the t-shirt was as explicit about the "3 feet please" referring to passing.... aww well. It's all about educating fellow road users of our rights out there, too!
We do have right to share the road!
(and that's why the Ride of Silence is so important)
There was someone at cm selling really cool yellow foam hands with pointing index fingers for $5 saying somthing like 3 ft plz its the law or sumtin like that. oscar bought one and put it on his rear rack for the ride. that was pretty cool
I like the jersey, but don't wear one all the time. The t-shirt is ok, but a chainlink version would be better...I think a good size patch would help those of us that use messenger bags, and some good clear/readable stickers, or even the ever so popular spoke card might help.
I have had some close calls, been bumped, ect. and it would be nice if everyone knew the rule and i would even rock a hipster bumpersticker in my back wheel for the cause!
i still have some anti-dooring stickers left over from the first run of printing. i'm waiting for the weather to warm up then im going to hit those new "paystations" they've installed instead of parking meters.
anywhere in particular folks feel they ought to go?
