Need an idea on numbers. Shirts will be sold at cost via Quasievils website and printed by our KB shirt printers. Should be about $20, but depends on numbers. So let us know.

Depends on the design chosen.
All for raising the profile and making people aware that we are being unjustly targeted but not interested in the Raping / Pillaging / shafting theme.

I think a mass swarm of bikers wearing 'Anti-ACC' t-shirts would be a sight to behold. Personally, I like the design with the target and showing the % contributing factor (of which there are two of - either design)

What about something like:

Why raise our levies? Its Already Costing Chitloads

or some other ACC acronym...?

I would also like to keep shirt sizes to medium and larger so we can keep the print large. If it had to fit on small shirt sizes, it would be just too small.

Sweet, but I reckon the writing at the bottom is too busy. The writing at the top of the second one is nice and loud :D Make the writing underneath like that? And a simple statement:

"Motorcyclists: (or symbol of motorcycle) 3.2% of all ACC claims"

Probably symbol would be better. Less is more. I like the red target on black

Like the easy target combined with slick's ideas. Danae's concept works well for the reading impaired! I do agree that the raped/pillaged look while actually signifying how we really feel, doesn't support us as a public/media friendly group.

Would be up to SpankMe whether there's a front as well, would obviously make the cost go up.

Excellent. Just the bike needs to be more generic so all bikers can identify with it. Like the ones you see on road signs. The dimension you have are good. It needs to fill the back of a medium size t-shirt.

We could also sell two options.

1. Just ACC protest logo on back.
2. As above, but with KB logo on front as well.

Second option would be a bit pricier.

If people want something on the front, they can opt for the KB logo or their member name.

If we use the black option, then the shirts will be black. Thou I think the white option will stand out more. Bikers wear mostly black, so wearing a black shirt over your black leathers wont stand out as much as a white shirt.

KB logo size hasn't changed since we started making KB shirts.

Will be asking the printers for a quote soon.

Its non offensive, directly to the point, a play on an existing acc slogan and sends a clear and concise message.

Hi yeah that would work well, the courier should be around $6.00 overnight delivery, so not alot.
I dont mind couriering and packing, I got plenty of little helpers around the place..........$6.00 vs waiting for people to turn up to collect etc and not doing it and couriing anyway.... etc might be easier to just courier.
If Spank reckons $20 bucks $26 with a courier is a cheap T Shirt eh

That logo would be effective with black background, white writing and symbols (but still with red bike).

Danae your one looks good in the ACC colours of blue and white also. red bike on black a bit hard to see.

I liek the target designs too but if there are stats they need to be easily understood at a glance!

The black background version would be lost on a black T-shirt. I think the blue on white (on a black T) is way more striking.

the simple ones seem to look the best, If you have a simple idea for one that focuses on national then i'm sure someone could PS it for ya, also the t-shirts etc should get us the publicity, bikers who talk to the media (hopefully bronz) will get the point across.

I think if there's a feature on the news showing 100's of bikers with targets on their backs, that will get noticed by the National Govt.
I don't think there'll be much time for TV viewers to read our shirts, hopefully the symbol alone gets the point across.

And I'm sure people will have their own home-made banners at a protest.

So far John Key has not been too proud to back-track on decisions when they turn unpopular, so I think you have a very valid point.

I did with a Nat logo flag on the tank and we could put the same logo before the word ACC on the target one! The ACC colours are even the same as the Nats logo so would look ok and simple, but make the point.

Whatever it is it has to target National. They are the ones proposing the changes, it is their agenda they are pursuing and they are the only target that will actually care. We can bitch about ACC all we like but that will change nothing, National is the only organisation in this that will actually pay attention to negative publicity.

Actually, the other political parties will be paying close attention to this. If there's enough of a public groundswell against these proposed changes, all the opposition political parties will seize the opportunity to put the boot in to National.

If possible I don't really want to change these anymore (Adobe Illustrator can be hard work!:sweatdrop) unless there is a mistake, or it's something simple like resizing or removing the National Logo.

National logo was hard to get right in the White Tee, but its close enough.

there should be at least me and headbanger. dunno how many other riders are members. i did give the website to a friend yesterday who will be hit hard owning 3 bikes, so heres hoping he will buy a shirt as well.

wanganuites are pretty good at having their heads up their own arses and most wouldnt even be aware of the proposed changes, so no, they wont care. but i will buy 2 shirts regardless, and will wear em. [one shirt to wear over the gear and one to wear under it.]

The poll should have the T-Shirt sizes from sm to xxl etc.
Then those that want a particular size could just click on the size.
You would have thier names then, and would save alot of time.

Remember people, ACC is only the issue, NATIONAL is where the blame needs to be laid...

If you visit http://www.bikersagainstacc.org.nz there is heaps of info, and within the next 24 hours or so (the web designer has a full time job as well) there will be tools to make it easy to submissions, sample emails you can send to your MP, posters and flyersyou can print out etc.

It's organised by PRISM (Promoting Responsibility in Safe Motorcycling), a group of well known and well regarded motorcyclists.

They are in the process of securing support from some very well known (household name) Kiwis who are passionate motorcyclists and the national spokesman will be someone we all know of. The team includes professional web designers, professional marketing and public relations people and academics. They have access to a wealth of information and data, including stuff that isn't normally available to the general public and relationships with the media. They also have an in to both the politicial circles and ACC, so part of their strategy is also to work from within.

They have been talking to, and have the support of the various importers and industry groups, and are working with non-motorcycle groups who will be keen to align with and support us.

They are meeting daily to develop a well researched and professional strategy for bikers to participate in influencing change, including making it easy to make submissions, lobby your MP and organise a series of national protest rides and media events. They are very keen to focus the energy and passion this event has triggered to stop the levies, but also to use the momentum to put in place a national and credible motorcycle interest lobby group.

If anyone wants to finance a run of bumper stickers, posters, banners e.t.c I am happy to help out with creating final print files at no cost.

e.g Danae's tank design would be an awesome bumper sticker. (Cost is around $500 for 500x 200mm vinyl stickers).

You'll have to work out a way to distribute the goods yourself though, e.g. via trademe or sell at protest days. (or ask Quasi very nicely?)

Been thinking about a design for banners and stickers along the lines of "Stand and deliver or help us stop acc's highway robbery" it could incorporate the tank pointing its gun at a couple of bikes.If someone with the appropriate skills could throw together an image we could all print it at home and put it inside our car windows, in shop windows etc. Lets get the message out everywhere we can think of

Am thinking about getting a t-shirt, but cant really see myself wearing a size medium guys shirt as it would be way to baggy. Im guessing no chance of sticking the same size print on the back of some chicks t-shirts is out of the question?

I think most people plan to wear them over their leathers so that they are visible on any protest rides etc :banana:

Hey SpankMe, would it be too hard to get two different t-shirts going?

Can you post a high res PNG version here (http://www.kiwibiker.co.nz/forums/showthread.php?t=110719).

I will then add bumper stickers to the CafePress page (http://www.cafepress.com.au/acc_protest).
