    The Mapei jersey is polarising. It's sufficiently 'out there' to be cool

    However, I just walked past the Uni gym and saw a bloke in the SHORTS.

    No. No. No.

    Facebook? No. Just say no.

    Can I have it? How tall are you?

    Always thought that the US Postal kit looked pretty good,much better than the Festina kit, with the stupid big watch on it.


    I have a US Postal that I use on a regular basis with no qualms.

    My Trek in Italia is also US Postal colors but as I got it for nothing I don't care. As it's got big phat carbons on it the locals don't care either, they just buzz off the big phat carbons...

    This got me thinking this morning, is it likely that there's ever going to be retro carbon bikes? Seeing as their exposure to sunlight and rain can seriously harm their life expectancy and we're accepting 20 years as retro.

    They've got no chance, and let's not start on your big phat carbons.
