Guys wearing yellow jerseys - Page 5

There aren't any!!!

Google only found ONE "brown cycling jersey" .... and that was a Charlie Brown jersey.

I think there have been a few brown shorts but they are custom made... usually during a race, and are to be avoided at all costs.

So, it looks like we're all out of luck. The only safe colour and nobody makes it

Whatarewegonnadooooo.................?

The only real safe colour is skin colour, that's why I always ride naked.
But come to think of it, you still have a problem if you're not pinky white, and if you're oriental, for god's sake don't ride naked because you will be called a poser by the OP for pretending to be the tour leader. And if you have skin problems, be careful as people will challenge you on the hills. Oh, and if you're from another planet, be ready with an answer as to where you accumulated all your points from.

Oh no!!!!!

The Charlie Brown jersey is yellow!!!!!!

That Charlie Brown jersey is pretty cool... not quite at Spongebob level, but pretty cool nonetheless.

So the leader of that race wears a brown jersey, so brown is off the list of allowable colors...

What can we possibly wear without being posers???

Purple? Does any race have a special purple jersey? Maybe if we all ride around looking like concord grapes?

It is too bad that most of the colors are taken by the racers leaving so few colors for us amateurs... if only there wasn't an arbitrary restriction keeping amateurs from wearing colors just because they have special meanings to racers a few days out of the year half way around the world...

But, we can't change the way things are... we simply must deal with this reality.

Alas... I must now hunt for a purple jersey, and hope that no race decides to start awarding a purple jersey, or I must change my wardrobe again.

ROTFLMFAO

OK enough talk... time for action.

Seeing as we've run out of colours to wear, the only colour that would not have the Yellow Jersey gestapo on our tails could be the last Giro "last place" BLACK jersey... Maglia Nera. This will be politically INcorrect and unsafe and therefore should become an instant hit.... plus it'll look cool.

PowerfulPete: Would you be kind enough to give us the appropriate Italian words or phrase for "last" "last place" "dead last", "fast but last" or word to that effect... something irreverent.... please?

I'm gonna make a limited edition Maglia Nera... who wants one?

BTW... the last person to wear the Maglia Nera in the Giro (1951) was a young man by the name of Giovanni Pinarello... LOL

You crack me up. Funny.

hey cool, once we get past jerseys, can we do team bikes?

you bastards better not get one of these unless you rode Beijing

Wore a Livestrong shirt to a local Ironman earlier in the year and a guy said "oh, so you're a big Lance Fan, eh?". I just said "not particularly, I just thought supporting Cancer research seemed like a good idea". To his credit he nodded and said, "Fair enough, good on you".

All this talk about what we wear make it sound like a chick thread

Funny you should mention that ...... because the way to avoid the yellow jersey dilemma is to have a sex-change!

This thread has been great. I had a stack of jerseys I bought when I first got into the sport that I never wear now because I found out they were meaningless in the pro ranks. Now I can wear 3/4 of them because they almost match a race leader's jersey somewhere. Thanks.

PS If someone finds out that a pro race uses a purple jersey to designate a category leader... please let me know.
