    Like to see you say that to his face. ;-p

  5. I think the sizing varies a bit from one manufacturer to another. Anus may call me fatty too just because I need L-XL sizes myself! Some jersies or knix that I have are L, and some feel more comfy than some other XL ones. Besides, some use size numbers. Nalini, for instance uses numbers, and my Nalini set is 6 (the largest, they said).

  6. Anus I,m not a fatty, I am a body builder, and if I get my hands on you, I'll choke the living [censored]
    out of you, you little skinny weazel.

    I've seen jerseys that are size 8 and 9. Not sure if they were Nalini, but they were Italian - maybe
    Santini or Castelli or maybe Biemme.

  8. It's comforting when someone's username tells you a little about their personality. 'Anus' does the trick just fine.
    I'm 196cm tall, but only 77kg. This makes for great climbing potential, but makes finding a neat fitting jersey a bit of a pain. If i don't go for the XL, the damn thing rides up my back. It looks untidy and leaves me with sunburn concentrated in one spot which stings a bit. When I go for the XL, it flaps around and bugs the [censored] out of me. So I go for the L and weigh the pockets down with phones and wallets full of coins - which in turn slows me down and counteracts my climbing physique. Being tall is almost as irritating as people like 'Anus'.

    Wow, at 187cm, I thought *I* needed big sizes for the length!

    How about this - get the size jersey that gives you the length you need, then get it taken in (by
    anyone you know with a sewing machine, or even an alterations person wouldn't charge you much) to
    fit snugly around your torso.

    P.S. Your BMI is 20.04 - wow. Even your average TdF rider is around 21.5.

  10. I'm often refered to as 'stix', 'bones' and/or 'skeletor'. Yeah, it's kinda cool. So long as I stay away from saturated fats, my metabolism takes care of the rest. I just wish my metabolism would make me faster!

    I like the idea of having the jersey modified. I didn't think of that, and I know just the gal. Cheers.

  11. "Lurch?" (Adams family) this name would fit then.

    Get some bib shorts, doesn't matter if the jersey rides up then.... Cheers Gemma (1.80m)

    Bib shorts might be problematic given his height - any size big enough to reach his shoulders is
    going to flap loosely around his thighs.
