1) I am offended by the portrayal of this guy as a "bum". He served his country, as did I. So what's his story? What's he doing? I'm guessing he's doing better things for all of us than the zillion "Everything Wanters" around him. He's not contributing to the ending of our civilization, or at least not very much.
2) Darren Alff, the website proprietor, is a typical young opinionated self-promoter. On a quick scan through his website, I found numerous errors of fact and reasoning, even spelling and grammar. I would not regard Mr. Alff as an authority on anything, including on Mr. Alff. I did not bookmark his site.
I agree with Machka on the clothing issue. Good quality bike gear, jerseys, tights, and shorts have a very long lifespan. I can wear all these items for days without washing them or them looking dirty unless it's really hot or wet. Not an issue. Bright clothing is good, Mr. Alff. Lycra (it's not Spandex, Mr. Alff) is a good thing. If you eat clean, live clean, don't pee your pants, and don't coat your body with chemicals, you won't even smell bad. If you are nice to other people, they will be nice to you. It's not that hard. We could start with the man in the photo.
