Club Kit......

It's good that people feel proud enough of their club to wear their club kit out in public, but I only wear cycling kit when cycling. One assumes that said supermarket is situated by a canal, and said lady was going to load her shopping into her scull and scull home. :?To err is human, but to make a real balls up takes a super computer.0

I used to run "learn to row" courses, when we did the kit order it was amazing to see how much the new learners would spend on club kit, yet they would not really be racing for at least 6 months - I think it makes people quite proud to belong to something.
When I rowed, I used to wear much the same kit for racing and training; meant I needed less kit in total, and I *knew* the race kit was comfortable and worked properly because I'd trained in it.
When I started TT-ing, I did a some training runs with the full race kit (skinsuit, pointy hat, disc wheel) for exactly the same reason, just to check it all worked properly. Even now, I still train with the pointy hat sometimes. Sure, it might look a bit stupid, especially when people overtake me at 15mph between intervals, but who cares?Pannier, 120rpm.0
