I was looking at some of my pictures of the times I have seen the Tour De France...In Toulouse, the teams had ended the days' stage.. In front of the ceremony area, I recall seeing some Telekom rides milling about..It was almost dark...
Then I liked the Telekom kit, it was grey,black, and white. What I liked about it...The three 'Addidas stripes' on the shorts. They are reflective. Great for being seen.That was before Telekom incorported pink in their uniforms.
Think it possible to find old team kit somewhere? I would like to have a pair.

I would check ebay once a week. You might try a general scan on yahoo.

Have yet to try ebay. Did do a yahoo search..Maybe look about pro cycling mag ads..Just subscribed to Velo News.Not received first issue yet..
I imagine Telekom still uses the reflective stripes on the shorts, but pink is not my favorite color, as their current kit incorporates.

I agree with you about the pink color on the Telekom outfit. Even in California pink won't work.
