The Shirt Off Our Backs

A call to commerce! An unsubtle, attention-grabbing shout out! A gentle plea.

Please witness the arrival of the brand-new, classic Cycling Independent Black t-shirt.

Excuse the smirking amateurness of the model and the hack Photoshopping.

Ignore the fact that you’ve already got too many black t-shirts, and get yourself one of these comely garments, the better to fetch coffee, groceries and come-hither stares.

You will find a fuller and more helpful description is in the TCI store.

Robot fell in love with cycling watching the older neighborhood kids ride wheelies down the street. It was the early '70s, and Evel Knievel was jumping motorcycles over buses. Everything seemed possible. From that moment, the die was cast (iacta alia est).

He studied philosophy in college, of course he did. That's what idealists do, romantics, kids who think there must be a better way. At the same time, bikes were carrying him everywhere, delivering all of life's gifts and surprises. Occasionally he crashed and didn't mind.
