    "Team Milram raised a number of eyebrows Friday morning when it took to the start of the seventh stage of the Deutschland Tour. The riders weren't in their usual kit but were wearing jerseys with a blue and white speckled-cow pattern. Among those who were "not amused" was the race jury, as teams are required to wear their normal team kit.
    "We wanted to surprise Nordmilch and thank them and the dairy farmers for their belief in cycling," said team manager Gerry van Gerwen. "On our way through Milram land, we want to show for whom we ride with pride and demonstrate our connection to the northern Germany home of Milram."

    Would maybe me more appreciated if they actually bloody won something!

    ^ Worst one yet. More blue.

    Also, if you're paying vast sums of money to sponsor a cycling team, it kinda makes to write your company's name somewhere you can see it. Trying to spot "Fuji" on that jersey is like doing one of those magic eye puzzles.

    I presume its designed so that when the cyclist is hunched over the bars the Fuji logo is very visible
    It's a little like wrestling a gorilla. You don't quit when you're tired. You quit when the gorilla is tired.

    IMHO, Garmin should've stayed with something along the lines of their TdeF kit from last year.
    Columbia, too. I've yet to come across anyone who likes their new kit.
    Saxo Bank doesn't quite work -

    the shoulders of the jersey look so bare - sponsor should be really prominent there
    Not keen on Cofidis, or Fuji-Servetto
    Milram - not sure, it may strangely grow on people
    I have always been a fan of Bouygues and FdeJ kits and this year I think Ag2R's kit looks like it might be a vast improvement http://tinyurl.com/6vmne8

    That'll be why. Not a bad gig then being the Moldovan national champ? It certainly caught my eye as I've never found previous incarnations of ag2r kit good looking

    I'm sure that the sheer amount of puns that could be milked from a cow themed jeresy makes it worthwhile. *pats himself on the back for quality punnage*... :roll:

    I like Milram's kit, much improved on previous years boring efforts (although the current shorts look slightly out of place).

    Sponsors put money into a cycle team to get attention, and milram's kit does this well.
    You live and learn. At any rate, you live
  • i like last years milram design its a kind of retro look i think, although this years is a better design.

    Caisse d'Epargne, from today’s presentation of the team; a whiter shade on the left aligned triangles, but that aside same as last year really.
