Steer clear of ALL cycling clothing if that's the case

Like most specialized clothing it looks rubbish off the bike [try walking around in m/cycle leathers on a hot day if you REALLY want to feel bad] but on the bike it makes sense. Anyhow - you might not go any faster but you will feel like you are, and that's all part of the fun [that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it so there !].

The rule that trumps all others is wear what you like.

You will look better in team kit if you have the physique - and colour of bike - to match.

Got a black bike and black and blue sky kit but I not a small lad

Not my thing to wear full team kit these days but i did have a team z shirt over 20 years ago , if you like it then go for it.

It is more important to avoid being a twat.

I find that unavoidable quite a lot of the time

And i like the avatar wise old elf , cracking program although nanny plum might turn you into a frog if your not careful

You wouldn't catch me advertising a Murdoch company, much less paying for the privilege. Sky should be paying you.

So yes I think you will look like a twat. It's up to you whether you give a toss what people like me think.

This what everybody is wearing - at least in 1967 - taken at Rivington.
I think a few of you are still active - do you recognise yourself?
More then a few good riders in this group - not me though, I took the photo and wearing my old anorak probably.

Cheers Keith
