If I say it's an octopus, it's an octopus. Don't dispute me :p

Euskaltel - Euskadi 2010. Just like last year. Lucky me, I don't have to buy a new kit.

For some reason I thought you were Spanish.

I actually like it. I have (or at least used to) a EE cycling cap that I wear under my helmet (which I always do). Also a good thing to wear when riding in the Pyrennes in July, you will be very popular.

I always thought he was Dutch :confused:

Euskaltel always have a nice kit (in recent years anyway).



Really not liking the HTC kit, just looks weird. I think Sky would've been better off with silver or light grey or something instead of that black. And Tom Boonen's smile is quite unsettling..

Since they went for the black shorts instead of the blue, I think it is one of the best jerseys of the peloton. Classical, nice color, no screaming sponsor names, just good.

Bingo. As long as you're wearing black shorts, you may not look pretty, but you do look like you mean business. (Well, unless you're on Milram, and your jersey involves some dweeby spilled-milk graphic.)

I'm pretty sure I know the answer to this, but am I the only one who finds Team Sky's new kit boring? I think if they had reversed the colors, a black band on a blue jersey, it would have been great. As is, it's just blah.

That's been a pretty common complaint about the Sky kit. They took simplicity a little too far, but it's better than the alternative.

I would not be surprised if they did a kit redesign mid-season by changing up the color scheme a la Cervelo this past year. I doubt they would go all white, but even with the white back portion they may reconsider an all black kit.

Nah...if it was Black on a blue jersey they would look just like half of the other teams...too many blue-based kits.... Astana, Quickstep, Milram, Katusha.... the black with blue accents makes it much more unique. That said, I wish there was some blue on the shorts....or even mostly blue shorts with black accents or something.

She could get a lot better than an old chrome dome cycling director.

Probably in it for the money.:D

I doubt it since she was one of the most popular female athletes in Denmark at the time they met and probably earned more than him. :p
