    I have no problem with you prefering cotton but I still prefer
    synthetics. I have no idea what folks wear in the Badwhatever but
    certainly the pro racers race all summer in synthetic jerseys and my
    guess would be that with $millions$ at stake they would be wearing
    cotton if they thought it gave them any advantage.

    You mean the guys that drill holes in titanium parts? Cotton weighs
    more, especially when wet. Cycling isn't my job so I don't need to
    waste money and resources buying specific clothing when what I have
    already and can use for many purposes works well enough. But if you
    like synthetic jerseys that's fine with me. In fact, if you're a size
    medium you can have mine; I don't need it.
