white arm warmers

buy the armwarmers and then duck down to safeways and buy a big tub of napisan and you should be right.

I believe bike clothes are free reign for all (of course this doesnt include fluoro) and i would love nothing more than white armwarmers. How classic!, how stylish!

Dreaming of a pink cycling kit.........

do they get dirty fast? i want some white arm warmers, as i have been wearing black and it's so boring, but how long does white stay white? any experiences? is it worth it?

white looks great on the track, but can it stay clean out on the road? ive been told wearing white arm warmers is [censored], but im not male so i have little masculinity to lose, so i wouldnt be ashamed to wear white arm warmers.

would love to hear your comments before i venture out to get some.

Oh no, another Fitzroy Cycles guy riding down Beach Road wearing white arm warmers on a 25 degree day😄

Just kiddin'

Keep them inside out when you're not wearing them

dude! team mobile/previously telekom gear is pink. i was riding new year's day, sunny day out on beach rd, and i met another cyclist who had everything in hot pink team telekom: pink bike (Giant i think), pink adidas shoes, pink team telekom get-up, pink helmet. it was awesome! maybe a little too much money to burn too, but that's not the point... it was the hottest looking outfit around.

in melbourne there's a shop called SBR who have a women's cycling kit in hot pink (like team telekom). i've got that, and they have a website to mail order, but the mens stuff is orangey yellow.

and talking about bad fashion, i saw a man with full length knicks, fluro yellow with the David Jones shopping bag pattern all over. probably from the 80s, but scary that they were still so bright.

I call them "bike shop boys."

Are you one of 'em?😄

that is SSSOOOOO 80's!

where are the fashion police when you need them?:p

At the moment im hooked on celeste blue. Bianchi knicks and jersey, helmet, socks. But i have been dreaming of a lampre outfit and totally adore the maglia rosa from the giro.

People snicker when i mention this, but im not dressing for the boys, just the ladeez!😎 😎

are you talking about cyclists who wear gear from bike shops?

yeah i probably am, a bike shop girl/cyclist (to be politically correct), seeing as i dont have pro-team gear like US postal, fdj, saeco etc. i dont want to look pro cuz im not, and what happens when Baden Cooke changes teams? that means ill have to change my cycling gear! anyway it's nice supporting your local Aussie bike shop, and the gear they make is just as good-looking, if not better, than some of the crazy team gear out there (eg. mapei!!! i hate the rainbow confetti look), or that zebra-striped outfit which makes you a target for all the poachers.
