I was out yesterday in my new Shutt jersey, when I got home I could not believe how much stuff I had stuff in there. Here is what I had (anyone had more)

thick windstopper gillet
2 zipvit bars
pair of inner gloves
pair of socks (don't ask)
Blackburn Airstick (quite a big pump)
pair of cycle glasses
an inhaler
large Lezyne wallet complete with multi tool, puncher repair kit and tyre levers
Handkerchief
mobile phone.

I must say the pockets were that good that I did not realise I had that much stuff and they did not sag one bit which I have had with other, more expensive jerseys, nice one Shutt. link below if you are interested.

    Were you off on a camping trip with all that stuff?!

    i would think, being prepared to sleep in your birthday suit, that you could probably go quite far, providing you could clean and dry kit before the next day... again spending the afternoon in your birthday suit.

    There are some b+b's out there that embrace this though, so would it require i majoy lifestyle choice first?

    Would that fit in the pump pocket?

    School boy error for not getting a picture, sorry. The jeresy is a shortsleeved Shutt number 3 http://www.shuttvr.com/productdetail.php?id=bb_ShuttNo3 , Don't get me started on how much I love it, I think I'm getting obsessed, the pump pocket is in the middle at the back with a velcro top so it can hold the pump (and phone, socks etc) Nice touch indead. Will make sure I get a picture next time.

    It never ceases to amaze me how much stuff my misses can get in her handbag. I swear that if she ever takes up cycling she'd somehow manage to cram a spare bike in a back pocket and still have enough room for the kitchen sink.

    About 17.5 stone looking at one of my colleagues this morning.

    I do sometimes wonder about the merits and demerits of lycra.
