When they found out I was a long-time cyclist the wife pressed the wool Italian team jersey in my hand and insisted I take it as well, no charge! I asked if there was a vintage bike that matched that vintage Pinarello jersey and they just smiled. I think that one's a family heirloom.

The best I can find is that Riello may be an Italian sponsor and Verloo is Belgian. The Italia jersey is from Vancouver and the Pinarello jersey is the Toronto Cycling Club.
