Most beautiful jersey

[Tim McTeague]

I agree, it is a great looking jersey. Its one of the few I considered buying, but after having been
hit TWICE this year by cars I want to be a visible as possible without looking like a total freak.
That usually means yellow or red jerseys. No sense giving drivers any more ammo for the "I never say
him" claim.

For me, it's "Z", "Vetements Z".

Lazyness is nothing more than the habit of resting before you get tired.

Last January I was coming up a hill and a car "overcooked" the turn, hit the brakes the girl seemed
to not know about steering into the turn. The car skidded sideways towards me and I had nanoseconds
to decide which side of the road I should be on. I nearly managed to sprint out of her way but got
clipped on my rear wheel. I spun 180 degrees and augured into the pavement. I tore my knee open and
had a few other bruises but just managed to avoid being pinned against the guard rail. After
recovery, and riding my brand new wheels a SUV backed out of her driveway, hmm... another woman
driver, just like my last car/bike conflict many years ago (that makes 3 total), and again got
clipped on the rear wheel. I am starting to think my Seven Axiom is a car magnet. I understand you
faired less well, hope you are doing better these days.

I can only laugh at you then, because it's not a "six-pack". Bjarne Riis was know as "the Eagle" and
as he now owns the company behind Team CSC, called Riis Cycling, he uses the eagle as a logo (the
eye actually). That's where the design for the jersey, with the printed on wings come in.

Look again...

They could just have easily have printed up jerseys with a big "60%" on the front.
