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

I need some jersey ideas

Most of my jerseys don't fit any more (too big) so I'm looking for a few new ones. I'm not interested in a team jersey since I don't ride on a team. I like my Fat Tire jersey so maybe something along those lines. Any thoughts? I really stink at this whole clothes thing so I'll take any help I can get.

Cheers!

My two favorite jerseys are both Ibex merino wool - the Fausto and the sleeveless one, can't remember the name. Both perfect in hot or cool weather, never stink, understated classic look.

Got them both for 1/2 price, one from REI and the other from IBEX.

I like race cut better than the other jerseys I've tried. I've had to try several sizes from different brands since they all seem to be cut a little different.
