    So stupid I don't know where to start. Is that what you mean by NYC
    style?

    BTW, here's the best jersey ever, even beating out the "evil" jersey:

    It would be better if the guy who mouthed off
    to the Astana-wearing dude had started his story:

    "Walking in Central Park this afternoon and
    smoking an enormous blunt while wearing my Yankees
    baseball cap, my eyes are of course glued to the
    different bikes and jerseys on the road.
    The pro replica jerseys are out in full force -
    including one baby-blue Astana jersey!"

    Dumbass -

    The OP of that thread is a self-righteous [censored].

    thanks,

    K. Gringioni.

    I passed that guy in the park! Combining the OP's logic with "Millar
    Line" principles, I think that means I condone doping even more than
    the guy wearing the jersey.

    Seeing this post makes me happy I didn't yell "Non a la dopage!" when
    I went by. The thought did cross my mind. I used to have a c.1994
    Festina jersey which was always good for some fun on group rides.

    Tomlinson, how do I recognize you in the park? We know some people in

    I'd like to buy an Astana jersey - I think they're cool (and I never got a
    Festina jersey back in the day).

    I'm the guy on a Trek Madone with full Discovery kit, matching Giro
    helmet, black socks and a LiveStrongTM bracelet. Oh wait, about 1 in
    10 guys is suited up like that.....

    John, are you surprised to see fascists everywhere?

    I actually saw a guy (yes, a guy!) riding wearing a RONA jersey while
    the Tour de Toona was going on a few miles away.

    (Recall that Jeanson had a positive test at Tour de Toona in 2005)

    Yeah, but you're the guy with your helmet on backwards.

    Maybe that doesn't help either.

    The really sad thing is that my 13yr old and I followed one of these
    guys the other night on a ride. He was fatter than me, which is going
    some, totally kitted out, blowing stop signs, gesturing at drivers,
    and acting like a total jackass, all at an average speed of about
    17mph. We finally just about came up on him when we had to go a
    different way, but it was a great example of how not to act, and be a
    total Fred for my son.

    It would be better to wear it while wokking your dog on the grill at the
    park.

    I wanted a le Groupement cap but never could find one. I saw jerseys but wasn't
    interested in that. That team was doomed from the off - I think they only lasted
    about six months or so.
