It's 2am, and we're still sitting in front of the monitors with glazed eyes, sore backs and melted brains. This t-shirt contest has literally blown our minds with how epic the creative output on Pinkbike is. Picking 3 winners out of over 3000 entries was harder than we could have ever imagined.
We are STOKED to announce the winners...
The Pinkbike Sick Threads contest generated so many rad designs, that we couldn't stop at just 3. Yes we've chosen the top 3, but we've also picked an additional 9 designs - this means 12 sick t-shirt designs from the Pinkbike community will be screen printed and added to our 2011 line up!
The additional 9 winners will all receive a copy of Lifecycles on DVD, a $150 credit to spend in the Pinkbike store, and of course, 2 shirts with their design on them.
So without further ado, here are the top 3:
