Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Those are difficult colors to match.

If Beer rules my jersey choices, It would be Chamay.l My sales resistance was up yesterday..Was in Performance..The jerseys they had on sale..One was "Cal." wanted to, did not buy it. Did get some California Republic socks.
Does Euskaldal give you a guarantee not to be hit by cars.? Like to be bad enough to wear that kit.

I bought one of the new California jerseys from Performance. Voler used to make these jerseys for Performance and the quality was very good. The new green and red California jerseys are made in Mexico and the quality and fit are terrible. Fortunately, Performance has a good return policy.

Other ideas..


That Polish jersey is hot. If all else fails, you can always get a Mapei jersey. Goes with everything (or nothing):

I don't think Chimay has a cycling shirt, but I'll see what I can find out.

I am going to be a little bit of a contrarian here. Never buy a jersey, helmet, shoes, gloves, or any other piece of bicycle gear because it matches your bike. It will give people the impression that you did not give the purchase serious thought and only bought it because of the color.

Funny you should ask, I actually got hit by a car a couple weeks ago wearing my RADIOACTIVE ORANGE Euskaltel jersey.

The Mapei jersy is a great one, too...we've got the Spongebob jersey from Descente at our shop and another one that has the Campbell's soup logo and right below it says "FULL OF BEANS". I'd totally rock that one if we had it in my size.

People get all uptight about it, like only a certain person can wear it, but I think the famous red and white polka dot jersey is sharp looking.

I was perusing the performance web site for jerseys when I came across this and remembered your thread. I think it's a good match.

We have one dude who comes into our shop who's like 98 years old and still rides something ridiculous like 50 miles a day who wears that jersey. I say he's allowed to wear any f*ckin' jersey he wants, especially that one.
