word. it's laughable how some folks are downright pathological about people in 'kit'...perhaps their mothers were frightened by a peloton during pregnancy.
anyone that's not riding some boring-ass, off-the-rack, modestly-priced bike is a 'snob' with too much disposable income...
to avoid their contempt for kit (especially with words and colors! oh, the horror!), guess we'll have to ride in soiled wife-beaters, board shorts, and crocs...the uniform of real cyclists everywhere...!
