Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Cycling Clothes?

Hello everyone, I am looking to buy a uniform for cycling, A team kit with the shirt and shorts. I live in Ontario, Canada. Can you wonderful people recommend a good online store for me? Thanks.

Also how do the clothes fit? I am a medium fit for regular T-shirts and a large for regular shorts. (I have big gauds)

Search "Online store" and check titles only and you should get plenty of reading

If the team doesn't provide them, I'd be embarrassed to wear them. It's like putting on pads and a helmet to play football with your kids in the park.

I had a hard time finding any Jamis team apparel or otherwise. I finally found a team long sleeve jersey and pants for cool weather riding on www.ebay.com. It was from Asia somewhere and was reasonably priced so I had my reservations. But I checked the user rating and paid with PayPal and it turned out to be a great transaction. The fit and finish we're too notch and I was pleased. So check out ebay for the hard to find stuff.

As a kid I used to play pickup ice hockey more or less every day during winter. We always wore whatever gear we could afford, plus jerseys of our favorite teams or players. There's nothing strange or odd about donning a pro sports jersey when playing with your kids in the park. The kids in particular will love it.
