Clydesdale rider from Philadelphia

Hi! My name is Smitty. I'm a Clydesdale rider from Philadelphia. I've been riding mountain bikes on and off for about 19 years. I ride a 2002 Ventana El Saltamontes with a 2002 Marzoochi Bomber fork with a mix of Shimano, Chris King, Thompson, and Crank Bros. components. I have a 1990's Trek 1500 (bought from my sister-in-law's husband, also a Clydesdale rider) with Shimano Tiagra components. I know they're on the low end of the Shimano line, but I'm not a real big road rider. I'm crash wary after taking a tumble in 2003, shattering my wrist into dozens of pieces and breaking my arm in two places. I use my road bike to pull my three year-old son around in his Burley trailer.

I'm looking for online or brick and mortar stores that carry Clydesdale jerseys. I have a couple of XXL jerseys from Performance. One is a perfect fit and the other is kind of tight, yet both are XXL. Any help owuld be greatly appreicated.

I look forward to speaking with everyone.

Take care,

Smitty

Out fishing with Annie on his lap, a cigar in one hand and a ginger ale in the other, watching the sunset.
