I was gonna do the nicest one for ya but forget to sort it out, I have about 20 of Chloe so I will either email em or try and publish them for ya :daumenhoch:
-
Nice pics. Love the Dialled top - really stands out.
-
burnham must have the best gate set up in the country and with a potting shed as well to shellter from the wind ;D

Top pics Ratty/Nik.
Thanks for the props on the shirts Crooch. I must admit that when I received them from Hot Shoppe on Wednesday I was a little undecided how much I liked them (Brown's not really a cool colour is it?!). But the team's reaction to them was pretty positive, and as the weekend went on, more people came up and said they liked them, I became a little less conscious about them being an "unusual" colour, and now I think they're alright.
At least our branding/image is instantly recognisable and unique this season. If we'd kept the same design as last season we would've got lost in a sea of blue cos loads of teams are wearing blue this year (Alans, SE, Revell, etc).
I reckon Gossa's lid would match our jerseys quite well ;)

Great pics Tony, dont listen to Jules- keep taking pics of 40+ (he'll be there soon anyway!! ;))
Loved the sequence of me passing Slater (me getting squirrely on 2nd straight!) dont think he'll like them though!!
Loved the pics of Billy S, tell him not to get a different race top- that looks ace!
TJ, Flem & Hilly racing are good too!
DONT LIKE the one of the old fat bloke with no hair sitting with John Stockwell though!! Delete it please!!!!! :tickedoff:

Mike how bad is this we might have to change kit to red and grey depending on the decisions of the boss at shiners as SE wants all the factory teams to
wear the new colours

As much as I will always have a soft spot for SE Racing and will always consider it one of the best/coolest bike companies ever, I think it's fair to say the current owners may have inherited the brand, but they haven't inherited the soul. And even though SE Racing makes bikes that bear the immortal names like PK Ripper, Floval Flyer, OM Flyer, etc, they aren't worthy of wearing them.
That red and silver/grey jersey looks alright actually (after all, it is the classic SE Racing race jersey design but in different colours), but SE colours should always be blue, brown/tan.
Sorry if that sounds a bit harsh Jai (it's nothing personal against anyone who works or rides for SE), but I was a big SE Racing fan as a kid.

Cool pictures tony . thank you. :daumenhoch:

i love that race kit and would love one, i"d even wear that shirt to the pub i"m sure i"d get plenty of attention from the ladies :LolLolLolLol:

I think Brown is very cool actually!!! But then i ride a Pearlescent Baby Blue Blur oh and a Tan Brown Quadangle (actually your shirt would go with that very well - right how fast do i have to be to get one ha ha (what do you mean arent sponsering OSS)
And yes the shirts stand out very nicely (as do your orange Oakleys!!! 8) 8) think mine will be dug out for Sunday as I dont think there will be a lot of sun!
And i think if you actually tried to Race in Gossa's Lid you would need a neck brace for the next week
-
Don't be too harsh on Fuji Mike, they've inherited the impossible, more history than possibly any other brand. I think Todd Lyons is doing a good job and you gotta remember that SE have to attract new riders, the younguns as well as keeping us old retro geeks happy, not an easy trick.
I quite like the grey and red, SE are also doing another retro jersey in the blue/brown, I do wish they had kept the 'FACTORY ACE' designation for team riders rather than 'FACTORY TEAM' like every other team though.
Now they just need to redo the 'wing' armbands!
-
Todd's done a good job reviving the brand. I don't dislike the new world SE, I just think it could be so much better.
I do actually like those red and grey jerseys, but I think the blue and brown is classis. I'd have a similar reaction if Liverpool changed their red kit to blue.
-
Just out of interest Mike, what do you think they could do better?
Loved your cruiser by the way, very nice!
-
Hi Clive sorry i missed you at the weekend but it was just so busy.
I do like the tops but SE is brown and blue but saying that i've seen the 2009 bikes so the colours will fit in.
Also from what i've been told is that the red/grey race tops will be for team riders only as Todd is trying to
standardize all the SE teams in the world.
-
Oh mate, i agree, brown and blue all the way! You can see that SE have a hard job though, keeping everyone happy, plus change is sometimes good. you need some patches on those jerseys to spice them up!

Great piccies tony :daumenhoch: i can't stop looking at em just to remind what a top weekend it was :daumenhoch:
-
Nice pics Rattster. Cool one of me leading my (cough) B final...
Mike, I was undecided for a while but as the weekend went on I was loving the brown shirts (apart from when one of them goes by me on the line in the semi ;)). I was listening to something on 5 live the other day about why no one uses brown footy shirts anymore, they thought it was because of the obvious chanting it would invoke.... :-\ Yours look anything but shite. :daumenhoch:
It'll take me a long time to get used to those red SE shirts if they start being used over here. I'm still a massive fan of the brown and blue one and I've got an original in the wardrobe. The current blue ones are a bit bland if you ask me, but each to their own.
-
like I said blue and brown baby, blue and brown.......This is one of 'silly' Sid Salisburys shirts from the mid eighties...

Maybe I see things through rose tinted Oakleys because SE Racing was always my favourite team, but I always saw SE as at the cutting edge of design (e.g. floval tubing, Quad Angle, etc) and designers of classic equipment (e.g. bologna cut bottom forks, classic graphics).
I'm not saying the current SE stuff isn't good, but it just doesn't seem as special as the original stuff.
I also look at the complete Haros and Redlines and SE doesn't seem to be at the same level right now.
As I say, nothing personal against the people who ride or work for SE. Just constructive criticism from someone who once thought SE was the best thing ever.
