Hi

So I didnt get in to through the ballot, but I did get sent one of the jerseys as I said I would donate the entrance fee. However, the jersey does not fit... any one want to swap a my large for their extra large?

Cheers

Rich

    Hi Rich, sorry I do not have a jersey but just curious about sizing as they seem really small.
    What chest size are you to have ordered a large?
    I am a 42-44" chest and would have ordered a large.
    Are they made by Adidas lol. Their olympic kit came up very small.
  • Non branded as far as I can see, I am a similar chest size to you so would have preferred to have ordered a xl, it does just about fit but is a bit restrictive

    Thanks Rich.
    I might try to pick up an XL one too.
  • Yes I received mine today too. Seems very snug at the bottom but roomy on top.....I wonder if the keg I carry round with me has anything to do with that?

    Tried mine on today, it's a large. I would say its a smidge tighter than my Rapha pro jersey, also an L. Just about fits but I wouldn't want it any tighter. Suspect it's worth sizing up if there's any legacy from christmas :D

    Rich,

    I'd be very happy to swap my XL for your large. I've just emailed RideLondon to see if they can swap it, but this would be easier.

    D'you want to PM me your address?

    I would feel a bit of a fraud to wear a jersey but not have done the event, perhaps the organisers could have come up with some other sort of gift in recognition of your generous donation.

  • I got in on the ballot and now wish I'd opted for the donation as I want a jersey! Happy to buy somebody's unwanted XL! (assuming sizing is similar to adidas team sky/GB top - sounds like it)

    No need to have regrets about how you filled out the form, as you only got the jersey if you did not get in on the ballot (like me :roll: ).

    Just get one for a tenner on the bay and donate the rest to charity via my BHF charity place :D

    Are you going to wear the jersey on the ride?
  • Isn't the shirt out of date anyway as the web address is wrong?

    I didn't get in but do have an XL jersey if you want one. PM me if you are interested.

    Cheers.
