Better question: does anyone think any other DS would wear the team kit:

16news2/JD_RRpressc002>

It's a very special look.

Perhaps if the helmet and matching sunglasses had encrusted diamonds.

Dude, Michael Ball is the official LIVEDRUNK Team Owner. He's so bad
he's good. I love pretty much everything Rock & Racing has done this
year.

Also, I'm mildly blissful because I picked up my Ronnie Johns wristband
today:

HTFU. Words to live by.

It's not exactly clear. Did Ball turn his press conference into chamois
time?

If so, this would make a great photo scavenger hunt. Full points for a
photo of him in full team kit, in the team car, with a wifi earpiece and
pointing at a rider. Bonus for wearing a cycling hat or WITHOUT sunglasses.

Hey, does that logo at the bellybutton and left thigh
show that you're sponsored by Enron Mortgages?

Enron + Mortgage = how to succeed in business!

Something like that. In return for giving them the coveted bellybutton
location we get our entry fees reimbursed with stock options.

Dude! Cipo has a huge tax bill. What's your excuse for wearing that?

Ah craaap! I'll pass your name on to the guy in our club who ordered

Long sleeve skinsuits for cross season.

Presumably the belly button area is coveted only in fatty master teams.

A 68 Beetle would be appropriate.

It's AUD$6, which used to be just over US$3 in 2001 or so,
but is now about US$5.50.

What's with the black wristband anyway? That should be
a New Zealand item. Maybe the clever Kiwis are bringing
them in and charging exorbitant prices to rook the Aussies.
