Universal logo for road racers overseas?

[jellywrestler]

I'm working on a Logo for our overseas Road Racers to use while abroad. Something that can be recognised easily as being New Zealand and in a bright colour, small enough to not impede on sponsorship footage etc.
Something that we can identify with wherever we are in the world.
Anyone got any designs suggestions out there?

Use something already well known... This from a quick google image search

The silver fern or a kiwi bird symbol re jigged to resemble a racing motocycle perhaps

For the last few years I've been using this or variations of when racing overseas


Which harks back to Kim Newcombe.

plain, simple, easy to interpret an keeps away from th silver fern, to which our beloved NZRFU have copyright to or some such, and get a bit upity about any one else using

a variation would be Unzud (NZ) below it.

Good idea: and in fact I was just going to suggest it or something like it.

I'd buy some stickers or something.

Give me a couple of days Sir, might have the original artwork for the ones I did for Grant when he did his Malaysian stint a lifetime ago - def no stickers left sorry. As a thought, I'll fight my way into the darkest corners of the shed and see if i've still got the actual screen - could churn out a few hungy no probs

Cool little kiwi on a black background - been a symbol for NZ since before World war II

Pic 1 - Shows the Kiwi 'attitude' and we all know it's not a tui...

Pic 2 - slightly altered Buy NZ kiwi with the obvious 2 wheels

The fern definately - black on white / white on black or half and half - better than a funny looking big nose chook without tail feathers

It can be curved to match the contours of the fairing - Mr Turner who did the cliffhanger quite a bit had one on his bike (silver and black) looked pretty cool I thought.

You can get one already made

and before that Steve Roberts.....
this is the Steve Roberts built Monocoque that Keith Turner took to the 1972 500 mGP's
great ideas I'm open to all ideas would like something that's modern and hits you too
where all the graphic designers etc out there even if ya can sketch something I can get it made real pretty I'm good like that.
Maybe even the new KB heckler GRIPPER has an idea, if he's not already gone to bed

Change the kangaroo for a kiwi, stick a helmet on it and bung a front wheel in it's out-stretched, ever hopeful wings.

Hugh Anderson before thatand probably others before, always thought the kiwi symbol was first used by the 2nd New Zealand Expeditionary Force in ww2.
