The new Discovery jersey will be Hi-Viz Yellow, in honor of all the
Freds that followed USPS so slaveishly all these years. Pearl Izumi will
provide the new threads.

I just know we're being trolled here ...

The hi-vis yellow bit is obviously not gonna happen.

And considering that Lance sued Pearl Izumi after the 1999 Tour win and his
long-standing relationship with Nike/Giordana, I doubt we're going to see a
change in clothing manufacturers.

Why not? ONCE is out of the biz.

Sure it's a troll, but I wonder ... what's wrong with wanting to be seen?
At the end of the fall, just before daylight savings time was over, I was
searching all over for some true hi-viz jerseys this year. I've been hit
and seriously injured by a driver who "just didn't see me." I'd rather be a
Fred than fool.
