the image is not fake: do a google image search for "cycling team" and you'll see other fine examples

however, Tex_Arcana nailed it, and i really laughed at his reply - it really cracked me up that he a) knew it was the Polish national team (i guess that's obvious because their shorts say Polska), b) he called me "some guy from the Bronx", c) his comment was ethnically correct as he used the word "kielbasa", and d) he brings up a good point: now you see why black shorts are better than colored shorts.
