MadM,
If it was me I'd have to say the Rosie the Riveter jersey. Just my warped sense of style.

What jersey should the President wear when he is mountain biking? Rumor has it he is long-time 50+ forum lurker -- can't remember his forum name, though...

Probably the long sleeve tuxedo - to avoid road rash.

Shouldn't the President's jersey be #7 - "W"?

maddmaxx! Great idea!

But this is fictional, right? We're not supposed to assume there's an actual owner on the forum these Jerseys? Because 7 should be Tom Bombadil, but he doesn't wear jerseys.

correct, these are assumed jersey's that match the on screen persona of some of the folks who post here. There could be other contributions.

Well, I've been biting my tongue, waiting for other people to play:

Here's my list:

Mojo: madd maxx, because he's got a magical quality or Beverly because she's so calming and supportive;

We Can Do It: Red Rider because she's a racer chick or Pam because she crashes a lot and still gets back up.

Grover: This would be me because I'm so goofy.

Tux: DnvrFox, because he's kind of the host here since he started the forum.

UK: Stapfam, because he's from the UK

SD: DG, as previously stated

W: Wisconsin Badger for Tom Bombadil

Nope- that's a University of Kentucky Jersey, Lexington KY of which I live in that area and my lovely spouse teaches. But I think who have in mind is around the University of Louisville (ky) who is our biggest rival the Lousiville Cardinals! Gosh if so you sure hurt his feelings

Careful, son. The message board police are out. You could be hauled in for linear thinking in a metaphorical zone and posting without a poetic license.

Since I posted this I have come to the realization that there are more correct answers then originally planned. That makes this sort of a psychological test as well. But bless you for the "magical qualities" anyway.

Oh no! I guess I was playing the game wrong! (But the way I played it was fun, too!) Just ignore my answers and carry on...

The UK jersey really comes in handy in this part of the country. I wish I had one.
