Sweet!!! That's it. I have got to get one of those. TYVM
Only caveat is that I'm 6' 177lbs. Not really fat but out of shape with a gut that seems to be genetic. I've never been able to get rid it even in highschool when I was on a swim team & swam 3 miles a day while being 6' 136lbs.
OK, I'm 6' and 184. That's the best weight I've had in years; I got up to 217 two summers ago and disgusted myself. At this weight, I'm in the best shape I've ever been, and my wife gives me that, "Who are you, and when are the aliens bringing back my husband?" look every now and then. (I just started riding again in October 2004 after a hiatus of about three decades - during which time, I was too lazy to even be called a "couch potato". At least they get up for snacks every now and then!)
At 50, I don't know how much more weight I'm likely to lose. I'm not likely to ever be as thin as I was in high school (barring catching some wasting disease!). I'd like to find a plateau below 180; if I can do that, I think I'm doing well.
As for jerseys, to bring it back to the topic, I have four, soon to be six; one short sleeve, two long sleeve technical fabric (they were on a "two-fer" deal), and a moth-eaten wool longsleeve that was passed down to me by an acquaintance. I need another short sleeve, and maybe a sleeveless; when I do the trainer in the garage, I'm just
dripping with sweat at the end of my 30-minute routine, and that sole shortsleeve gets too skanky to put back on. (I never thought I'd be doing so much laundry!)
