+ 1 for cheap ass kit. I buy ebay jerseys for $20-25. I'm also a big fan of used gear. So many people buy kit and never use it you can buy really nice stuff for a fraction of what they paid for it. I just got a pair of Capo bibs for $5.50 and a Capo jersey for $17.25 bith had bike shop logos on them but who cares.
