General Cycling Discussion - Favorite team/ favorite kit in 05 TDF.

Favorite team . Discovery of course. American riders might be at their peak of performance this year.Even those who aren't Discovery.
Our eyes find our favorites by their kit...Favorite kit. three runners up. Discovery, Fassa Bortolo, Cofidis. I like color. Think I vote Cofidis. but most colorful is Euskaltel, but their riders ,except for Mayo are hardly favorites.
Ugliest kit. Illes Balears.

Robobank, Fassa Bortolo, Damianan Lotto...

Worst... that guy from Tmobile who wears the green stuff :lol:

I dunno about you.. but Velotainment has this very nice team kit from 2003...

Team: DIscovery...followed by Quick Step (big Boonen fan here)

Team Kit....Phonak,

Fassa Bortolo,CSC

Discovery for the team and Gerolsteiner for the kit. I love the blues in that one! If I had money, I'd buy one... but that's for another thread ;)

i've always liked Liberty Seguros.

i've always liked Liberty Seguros.

Yes, that is a very good looking one as well!

Discovery favorite team.

CSC favorite kit, followed by Euskatel

I have thought that the Discovery team kit sucked from the moment I saw it.

Discovery favorite team
Phonak favorite kit

Liquigas!

Favourite team and kit: CSC

Another vote for CSC.

First, the color combination is perfect: Red for aggression and black for speed. Then they have the cool effect of the eagle feathers on the shoulders, paying tribute to their DS, "The Eagle." When the riders go into a tuck, the feathers flutter. Too cool.

fav team: Liquigas-Bianchi (it's the second word that's important here)
fav kit: T-Mobile (because pink positively screams bad-ass!)

discovery,csc, and tmobile

Liquigas-Bianchi, and the fade paint job on the bikes.

I have a few favorite kits Euskaltel-Euskadi, Liquigas, CSC come to mind

Rabobank

Gerolsteiner really stands out for me for their kit, and CSC.

CSC and for reasons not studied seriously,Gerolsteiner kit.

Well, I like pink A LOT, so I'll go with T-Mobile. I also like the colors for CSC too.

Koffee

I like Gerolsteiner and CSC too, as well as Euskatel.

I'm biased toward CSC because I used to work for them, and they were a good company. I also like the fact that their jersey looks good with plain black cycling shorts, so if I want to look "team" I don't really need to buy the whole kit. ;)

Slvoid . YOur velotainment team could not race in the TDF. Kit requirement, not mid riff allowed.
