I'm looking at the background as it is on (8/21/11) and the elements I like better than the poster are:

  • Grey/Night theme
  • Rider pointing down
  • Gear Moon
  • Heart used in a "Badge" design as opposed to the outline of a badge
  • The badge has a split down the middle giving the appearance that it could be used on a head tube
  • Having the night theme and a light on the bike gives me a feeling of adventure and this is one of the main reasons I love cycling (road and mtb)
  • That said I think having the road in the foreground includes commuters and road riders. Having the rider in the background with no apparent leaves the imagination to be a trail or a road.

I don't agree that the heart doesn't represent an element or that we are like school girls. I have been riding for over 25 years and have some pretty hearty rides under my belt. I love cycling, the technical and the zen. There is a grace to someone who rides well and we have all felt this in the "flow". Jin you said this is essentially your design so keep it that way.

The only con: use the heart that's great. Throw some "pink" in there that's fine. Not both please. let meta be some other color.
