    You can't wear a Cofidis cap!!

    They are an awful team, the way they treated Lance when he was ill. And one of them doped in the 07 tour and got the team thrown out.

    I wear my Discovery Channel cap with pride though.

    Question.

    Does wearing retro trade kit make you uber cool or an outdated tw*t.

    These unwritten biking attire rules are almost as complicated as the racing unwritten rules.

    Depends on the team and the kit.

    and Cofidis aren't that bad a team as people mentioned. They've got some decent riders.

    OK they may have treated Lance badly, been involved in corrupting Millar (from what he says), and they may be the French version of Ocean Finance..... but they have pumped money into a cycling team to keep them going for the last 13 years, there's not many teams that keep a sponsor for that long.

    Wear what you like, says the man with a Cofidis jersey :oops: :lol:

    Interesting, I saw a Cofidis top in a bike shop and thought to mayself, there's no way I would buy that considering the disgusting way they treated Lance Armstrong when he was under treatment for cancer. No morals at all, at least Oakley showed some support someone who was in need of it at the time.

    More likely that Oakley could afford to take a gamble on LA, but Cofidis couldn't. He's bound to help shift more shades than credit. Agree that it was slightly obnoxious though.
