I agree with you Virenque. Some of the jerseys in hte poll aren't bad at all. What was so wrong with the 2003 Brioches kit and the current Barloworld kit. I like Caisse d'Epargne's kit. The black is classy. It's much better than a garish jersey.

I think the worst thing I've seen is that Unibet helmet.

As for kits, I'm not overfond of Lampre, or Saunier Duval.

I think my faves are probably CSC and Gerolsteiner.

The lime green added to Team Jelly Belly's jersey is awful. The 2005 one was better. JetFuel has a cool jersey. So does Euskaltel. No mistaking them on the road.

Bright jerseys are good in that they stand out in peloton when you watch on tv. And the sea of blue in the current peloton is not good, it makes identifying riders harder. Saying that men in bright pink lycra just aint right!. The black C'aisse Epargne jersey is cool though

If you have a look at the poll results, you see why there are so many boring blue jerseys in the peloton.

Any stand-out jersey is more likely to create stronger love-hate feelings. Bland, boring jerseys like quick-step's, milram's etc. are more likely to be overseen when it comes to which jersey is the ugliest.

Moreover, generally people choose discrete clothing when they get out of kindergarden, so strong colors kinda deviate more from standard attire. I wouldn't go biking in the phonak gear myself, but I don't hate it.

Its not on the poll, but i have to agree with that the Milram jersey are my least favorite. The light blue color just doesn't go with German sponsor. Plus so many other teams have similiar colors, I blame Milram for not being different because they are the newest teams.

I dont know what it is, but I had a fondness with Vinos Kazakh champions jersey, and I dont know why.

I also liked the Yellow and Black uniform of ONCE also.
