Well good thing I asked. I don't think I will be buying this jersey. Putting a side the drug thing, there is no way I'll pay 50 bucks to be a moving billboard. Especially for a cigarete company.

Which in my opinion is absolutely absurd and unacceptable.
If you want to promote drug usage and support companies who dabble or are directly
related to illegal drugs, then that is your choice. No doubt that the profits from these sales
probably help support illegal drug usage in some shape, way or form. To relate Cycling to Pot Smoking is
unbelievablly ignorant. And anybody who gets up on their soap box about doping...save it.
Any illegal drug usage in this sport is moronic and completely F 'ing stupid.

The fact that nashbar sells this jersey is highly questionable and is definitely poor judgement on their part.
I am writing to them to let them know my concerns and disagreement of their policy to offer such a
article of clothing that clearly condones pot usage and possibly other drugs as well.
If you are shocked like I am, I may suggest you let them know, its not a good idea, in fact I would say they have no right to to promote illegal drug usage within the cycling community as far as I'm concerned.
