Myself and a pal organised www.ridetothesun.co.uk last year, and we are doing it again in 2016. We'd like to get t-shirts made up for next year's event. Probably fairly low numbers, but we'd like to get decent quality (it's a free to enter, so folk would be paying for them if they fancied one).
Does anyone know of decent suppliers / printers of t-shirts, ideally Edinburgh based?
Many thanks
Fraser

There's a few, google is your friend, got some done in the sports fabric stuff for about £15 per head through sports warehouse in Leith. Low number and quite cheap.

http://singletrackmag.com/forum/topic/ride-to-the-sun-a-northern-scottish-dunwich-dynamo - for the original thread about the northern / Scottish homage to the Dunwich Dynamo. Carlisle-Cramond (Edinburgh), 100 miles overnight, June 18th, with a chip shop stop. Great feedback received.

Sprinterz near Perth are very good - http://www.sprinterz.co.uk
Give Kevin a ring with what you want and he'll sort you out. Highly recommended!

Edit - if you do order from them, I'll deliver them to you in Edinburgh, as I commute in 4 days a week.

Search for super logo. They were good 5 years since I used them though.

Sorry, should have said, they'd be decent cotton. Not a wicking / dri-fit fabric.
Many thanks for the suggestions, I'll check them out.

I had these knocked up the other year:

Not in Scotland - done by Topsigns in Hexham. Double sided single-colour print on black tech t-shirt. Had about 150 done in various sizes (my son loves his)
Got the cost down to considerably less than £10 each - helped by including their logo.

I use Nick at Legends in Perth for all my stuff: http://www.legend-s.co.uk/

Good guy and can handle small and large quantities. Never let me down, and always goes the extra mile.
