Can I suggest a white background with a massive 100. The 100 graphic however would be made up of thousands of tiny pictures with each one being a different bike that Hora has owned since the magazines conception.
To make it easier to whittle down the list of included bike photographs, you could just use the ones he has put on the classifieds at some point.
2 Suggestions for the moment, I might add more later.
.guy martin and terrahawk in their urine stained tandem.
.a clown on a bike with really big wheels (or something typifying the debate surrounding wheel sizes which has dominated the industry for the last few years)
Hora looking sad, on a bike with 650b wheels with Renton hucking over him on his Five29 grinning with a sparkle in his eye, staring wantingly at masses of STWers who are waving cash at him to buy his bike off him, most of which are holding pairs of 27.5+ wheels in their hands, ready to put them on Renton’s bike.
Might wanna get the ‘artist’ to flip riders face so it’s pointing away from the spine (unless you’re breaking the rules by doing a poor cover design 😛 )
Can’t offer any useful suggestion for content as i’ve never read the mag.
