He he, and the 531 is fairly hidden anyhow.
I like the idea and I like this one that is on my own bike. It seems to describe it better too:

I can call around in my area too if you like. I might have some contacts in the screen printing industry that I may be able to tap into, not for a discount but things may be cheaper out here.
I'd be willing to work on something on the side to see if it happens. I hear what you are saying about "if I don't own it I won't wear it", but at the same time I've never been to the TDF and never raced in it but I'll still wear it. I'll probably never own a fancy Colnago but would rather wear that logo than a "Levis" logo.
I bet some of the Fixie crowd would be down as well.
Someone in the UK has their own take on it:

Wow! Lot's of responses. When I talk to the printer I'll ask about shirt quality and price. The reason I picked black as the color was to try to cut down on the number of colors required to print (cost down). I also like the idea of going with a logo more like embankmentlb posted with the "Reynolds Tube Co" instead of the Ti Reynolds. Also, this would be a recoup for me, not a for profit. I thought the shirt idea was cool, and that others might be interested. Also, it would probably be pretty expensive to have just one made for me, so the whole group thing fixes that. I'm going to go with the forgiveness is easier than permission crowd on the copyright issue... I like to think of it as free advertising. It looks like about 30 shirts right now!

Sounds good, I like the one you posted earlier and think a higher resolution version would be a good graphic to use. As far as the word "butted" goes I plan to keep it in. It's what I ride and it will provide the opportunity to inform the curious. I don't really an the issue with it.

I'd like one in XL - but it depends on price (and that would include shipping to the UK). Great proposal!

Add approx $20 for vectoring. If no vectoring, I'd need a good 600 dpi scan of a decal at the very least.

That's a good estimate. I print shirts and would charge $6.18 per shirt for a run of 72, sizes S-XL. Add $2 for XXL or XXXL. $9.16 per shirt for a run of 20. Setup and tax included. Shipping approx $25 for 72, $12 for 20
Add approx $20 for vectoring. If no vectoring, I'd need a good 600 dpi scan of a decal at the very least.
