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

Dude, you just don't get it.

It's not that the jersey looks like a tuxedo, it is that tuxedos are never, ever short-sleeved.

Short-sleeved tuxedo! Truly rank!

No, it doesn't.

I think the world of LA, but that jersey sucks and the yellow one is worse. Way to blocky, each brand name repeated 4-7 times and way too busy while trying to look simple. That jersey is all about the money the companies put into the team, not about the sport of cycling and the Tour.

Now if they only made the tuxedo in long sleeve like it should have been (and can I get one with 'tails'?)!

Arguably one of the better jerseys if for no other reason than it is NOT BLUE.
