Custom helmet:

A definite bonus of the aero helmet is the scope for a custom paint job on it. Really liked the ones at the worlds last year.

Unfortunately it still looks cack Marcel! I would have though that might lead to sunburnt shoulders as that part of a cyclist doesn't see the sun as much. I've been burnt in about 10 minutes in Australia before (But I am as pale as they get)

These photos are soooooooooo cool. Done by the heavyweights at Brakethrough Media (although not sure what the TDWSport is there for also)

You can't even make them on the custom site, special special ones. I made my own customs, lots of faffing around with spray paints but I like 'em.

Nice blog post comparing the 2014 kits with last season's:

The guy who does this blog is the brother of the Cycling Inquisitions blogger.

I get the impression that he is not an Orica Greenedge fan.

Don't you have to earn them or something?

Gold ones yeah, ones with luminous yellow bolts and "O"s to match your northwave shoes because you are a tart, no

I like those shoes.

rick_chasey · January 2014

Boonen looks lean

Cool! Like that. I also particularly like that you had a photo to hand!

Paul 8v · January 2014

Thanks

I had a pic on my Facebook as a mate photoshopped it for me to see what it would look like (they were metallic red before) this was the photo to show the finished product

greasedscotsman · January 2014

Could do with some fire lenses to complete the look.

Also interesting to see that Cav isn't even wearing his own special edition Oakley Radars.

Paul do you secretly ride for Vini Florescent Highlighter Pen or whatever they're called this year?

Ignore me I'm only jealous about your clean shoes.

Paul 8v · January 2014

Haha, yeah it is a bit Vini Fantini

They have the most sponsors. Ever! Seriously, check out one of the jerseys.

above_the_cows · January 2014

Yeah my mum paid €5 and now has her name on the jersey.

Blue Bont Vaypor +

Have Sky ditched Gatorade? All Blue bottles now instead of the green ones...

I read something about that and Gatorade isn't listed as a sponsor on their web page any more - but CNP are - a company who make drinks, gels etc.

Sky didn't even use their product anyway. And with CNP they developed their own thing and got CNP to produce it as their off the shelf stuff wasn't suitable.

TdU Classic highlights on Sky now ... The Lotto kit is easily the best of those who made noticeable changes ... Garmin kit looked good in pics but just looks a bit messy on the bike ...

Both of those are really nice. Always a fan of the Gulf colours.
