Buy some cycling shorts. Bib shorts (with built in suspenders) are preferred because regular shorts WILL slip down often so, you'll be pulling them up all day. A regular Under Armor or Nike Dri Fit athletic shirt, either loose or compression, will do just fine. Those tops are like $25. Just make sure it fits and isn't flopping all over the place. Cotton just gets soaked with sweat and is a mess.
Some jerseys are just cut short...even in XXL. You gotta just try different ones on from different manufacturers.
http://www.lavelodrome.org says the 4 classes are 225 and theres an accelerated class for 65 bucks. sooo idk, sounds like a gip to you? and I was thinking of getting some bibs but they are pretty pricey and I'm already gonna be dropping some dough on the helmet and jersey, I'm a broke college student after all haha so I'll just stick with my shorts
