Tiki Cycling Jersey?

Pages: 1 15 replies

TB

I do alot of long distance biking & would love to have a bike jersey that had tiki on it. Does anybody know anyone that sells tiki jerseys for mountain bikers or road cyclers?

Tbird.

i thought you meant cycling to a place in new jersey for some tiki :)

I heard rumors and saw pictures of bike helmets with shag's tikis on it, but haven't seen any jerseys yet. I'll bet they do exist though.

We have also officially registered as a team, TEAM PINEAPPLE, and we are getting custom made cycling jerseys made to wear, and to auction off at the party. Mr. Pineapple (TikiBot) is designing it, so it will have tikis prominently displayed!

Got this quote off beyond tiki forum in regards to the AIDS Fundrasier Ride. Mrs. Pineapple how did the jerseys turn out. How much did it cost to do your own design jersey?

Hi Tiki Bird -we didn't get the jersey's made, mr. pineapple became unemployed and we have spent hundreds of $$'s on equipment, tuneups, extra food, after ride cocktails...I digress, we didn't get the jerseys made :(
BUT - I have hinted pretty heavily, and specifically, that if I don't ge the Spongebob jersey from Performance, Mr. Pineapple won't hear the end of it.
I can't seem to find them on their website, but it's got a Pineapple (spongebob's house) AND a tiki, (squidward's house)

Hopefully he was able to track it down, otherwise there's gonna be one sad mrs. pineapple...

You can get custom jerseys at

they are about $100, and they go down in price the more you order. Let us know if you order one, maybe we'll go in with you after all.

BTW - about 5 east coast family members mailed me asking if OUR neighborhood was burning, (we're El Cerrito up by San Francisco) Hope things aren't burning near you :)

see you at the Oasis? it's our big weekend off from training, our 600 mile ride is 4 weeks later!

On a hunch, I decided to go looking for "bicycle tiki" on the web (because it's a slow night at work). I found a helmet, but it's for kids. (You have to click the magnifying glass on the left to get to the Blue Tiki one...)

Thanks Mrs. Pineapple, $100 isnt to bad for a good bike jesery, but will have to get a tiki design going. Anybody have any ideas?

I did a search and located a mountain bike cycling club(no affiliation to me)in San Diego with a cool tiki jersey. You can see them at their photo gallery: http://www.sdmtb.net/photogallery/

Whoa, tiki rider, great researching there. I will check them out. Might not be able to use their club jersey but aleast get an idea for one. I cant design crap, For any of you artist out there, how much would it cost for a tiki design i could use on a bike jersey.

mr pineapple (aka tikibot) is a designer, we're getting the spongebob jerseys for team pineapple on the AIDS lifecycle, but he'd probably love to design a tiki jersey. That one tiki rider found is cool. It may need to wait until after the ride, but we'll stay in touch on it. We might also be able to convince a few other interested folks to go in on it, Otto is a big mt. biker, he might be interested...

Are you going to the oasis? find us if you are! we're leaving tomorrow morning!! yeah, I can't wait... 5 days off from work and training :)

That looks like it could well be taken from a Shag painting. I wonder if he's been paid or even aware......

BTW, Kona have always named their bikes in a Hawaiian fashion - 'Lava Dome'/'Tiki' etc, so they might be able to help.
