Appropriate cycling jerseys
 

Appropriate cycling jerseys. Many of our jerseys have ride based or club based themes. But there are others. I have three very appropriate jerseys:

Left: this one has been appropriate for me ever since I got it 8-10 years ago. Center: became very appropriate after being run off the road January 30. Right: appropriate for corona virus lockdowns.

that is one nice selection.
i own the old Fat guy cycling team jersey.

We’ve earned it!!!

I dig all of those. I really need to get that Plus 50 one. I've got a couple of Army themed jerseys that I've used a lot, finally wearing one of them out.

Mostly I just wear some cheap generic jerseys I bought off Amazon, though. The nice ones are reserved for group rides or events. The cheapo ones suffice for normally solo rides.

I wore my BF 50+ jersey yesterday. :thumb:

Feeling like the 'Swiss National Champion' jersey on the Swiss Mondia

I have way more jerseys than regular tops. Well over 50. :D

About 15-20 in daily rotation at any given time. :thumb:

Nice Mondia and Jersey. What year is your Mondia?

I try to get vintage jerseys to go with my vintage bikes. I have a few others as well. I was a bit reluctant to wear these old Wool jerseys because I had heard they can be itchy and uncomfortable in the heat. I have since found that was not true , for me they are really comfortable.

My current favorite.

1980 Mondia Special - 531SL

Very nice! I find the Mondia to be very comfortable , I put wide tires on mine and have done dirt/ gravel for short distances and it does quite well. A good road bike with comfortable geometry. Joe

Mine is presently running the Schwalbe 30mm tubular from a couple of years ago. S-One?

It is also a perfect fit. Excellent paint. Mostly original. Loves to go fast.
edit: wheelset as pictured is not with the Schwalbe tire, probably a VeloFlex.

I am running 27x1 1/4 Michelin Pro Tek clinchers. They are a bit heavy but ride very nice once seated properly. They actually measure close to 39mm , I have to deflate the rear to get it on.

Inappropriate at any speed.

Plain old T-shirts work for me, and are usually free or cost less than $10.

Wow You guys are really funny!!!!

Yep, I am a t-shirt rider as well. Cheap, effective, and does not follow the trends.

I take it you don't miss the rear pockets? Like for wallet, phone. snack, Gel, etc.?

I have the same one. It's my favorite

Here’s mine. The theme subtitle says “the beatings will continue until morale improves.

Wow, you have my favorite Jersey, until I find one that says 65!

My LBS wanted me to take a Pinarello Prince out today for a test spin. It was returned as being "unsafe" and he wanted to get my opinion. I wore this kit today, as it was most appropriate for the occasion. Jersey with matching bib shorts.

Don't have a pix but about 15 yrs ago on a Georgia century, there were several cyclists with Donner Pass jerseys
on the back of which " we eat the hindmost" was printed.

My jerseys are blank with no logos of any kind and mostly from the late '90s or early '00s. Unfortunately IME
jerseys rarely wear out.

A very good friend of mine belongs to a club, the Donner Party out of Chattanooga, TN and most qualify for 50+.

Most appropriate geezer jersey is always the last year's from your local big event ride. (STP doesn't really count).

No pic capacity at the moment, but I have a Specialized Aussie jersey (blue, with front and back depictions of a green grid globe). Front reads: Think globally, bike locally. On back: One less car. :thumb:

This is an appropriate non-cartoonish cycling jersey.

Mine are all pretty much simple designs (plain or perhaps with a horizontal stripe), or an event jersey ... something you have to earn by completing the ride/race. Since they really don't wear out, over the years, I have acquired a boatload of them.
