Obviously we'd have to bar anything with national/world honours, plus race category jerseys...

My vote goes to this, but that may be influenced by the man inside it.

    That's my second favourite, though if I'm honest I prefer it with the Campagnolo, even though the iconic pics of Merckx are usually the Arcore version

    And truly, some of the posters on this thread have appalling taste. The Modfather of cycling would be ashamed of you.

    I agree. At least if you call it a jumper it's funny.

    1. Historical reasons - St Raphael or the Bic for the Anquetil connection
    2. Good looks - Cervelo from a couple of years ago

    I was bought one of these a year or so ago. Apparently it was only 99p, I can't for the life of me see why!!

    This as it was the first one I owned but I do like the retro wool jerseys such as Peugeot and Ti Raleigh to look at (awful things to ride in). I also liked the GB shirt from about 1990.

    Beautiful kit, classic looking and understated, combined with Ullrichs smooth pedalling.

    Plus take a look as souls are are crushed, and children weep at the spinning of those mighty pillars of muscle.

    Unfortunately, whenever people talk about Jan like that, I'm immediately transported to this blog entry.
