Do you match the colour of your Jerseys to your bike?

Ok now that would make for an interesting jersey/short combo! Flesh colored with just the right graphics? I wonder how many heads you would turn with such an outfit. LOL!serenaslu said:Just nude Ti!
I have a blue FELT, and I wear red/black jersey and helmet, with black/silver shoes. I 'felt' like doing something other than having an entirely matching set. My next step is to get a yellow helmet and yellow jersey, but I gotta find one that doesn't look too much like a Tour leader's jersey.
OMG have you seen me riding? I'm so embarassed! But blue does look good on me doesn't it? So many colors, so little time. One way to look at it is that it simplifies your choices. And let's face it a lot of the Jerseys available are butt ugly, so it helps take the onus off them if they have a color scheme to tone them down. What is about cycling Jerseys that make designers lose their minds. Without naming names, although I'd be happy too if you want, it has been an issue to me as long as I can remember, and I've been riding 30 or so years.

You are not by any chance wearing a soccer team jersey are you?
Can't recall the name of the team though, I believe its in the English Premier League, or is it?
As with non-cycling situations, it completely depends on a billion arbitrary things. I've got one or two kits which happen to coordinate (whether by matching colors or a nice contrast) with one or the other of my bikes; I've got some gear which is just its own thing.SunBurnt said:
What about those team kits? If you're riding the kit sported by your team, club, or company, color-coordination might be hard to avoid -- fly those colors with pride. I tend to wear those kits most often, and the frame connection is subtle: the gear is the same color as the bike's trim, or a set of decals.
Sometimes I feel like riding out in color-coded glory; other times I feel like selecting my stuff blind. To each their own, as is the case with so much in life... and me, I'm a different cat every day.

No it just happens to be a "real" jersey, my coach gave it to me acutally.....
