However, I can't find a place to buy the US Olympic cycling jersey. I'm google challenged! Anyone know where to get one?

That's a reproduction of the 1980 Soviet Jersey, by the way. It was a gift from my Mother of all people.

I dunno about you guys, but I do find it hilarious that I even show up in the Google search at all!

Yup, I wanted to call attention to the fact that Tom shows up in a GIS instead of Taylor Phinney or Sara Hammer or even George Hincapie when looking for pics of the olympic cycling jersey.

jyossarian,

After much searching myself, I found this jersey on eBay. It is a replica of the ones worn by the U.S. Olympic bicycle team in 1996 that included Mr. Armstrong himself. I won this thing and I should be riding around in it soon.

I think the Soviet jersey's better looking than that USA jersey.
