    it's hard enough to be a cyclist in dublin as it is, without wearing an "aim here" jersey too!

    I've banned myself from getting any more black gear. My "cycle clothes section" in the wardrobe is a mass of black stuff and I've no idea what is what when I look in.

    Pink is a fat cyclist rip off, we need our own colour.
    Burnt orange, haha. (fat cyclists old colour)

    Or go with the Cloud theme on boards.ie. Yellow 'n Black.

    I think pink and black zebra print, with an argyle design on the sleeves would work... I'll mock it up tonight

    It has to be a pig coloured pink. The shorts could have the print of a pigs butt, with a nice little curly tail motif. It would suit my fat ass. Something like the color below!!!

    Actually, the shorts... careful choice needs to be made so there is no ass-crackage display when it gets wet.

    Not a problem, it could be designed as one of those dappled pigs. You know the ones with big black spots. Or a hairy assed pig. Or a darker shade of pink pig.
    (I need to get a life).

    Absolutely -we're flying close to it at the moment... the boards shorts go fairly see through when soaked...

    Nice work. How about something more sureese (how do you spell that?) like the Lampre pink and with less white?
    Actually, what app do you use and do you have a template?
    Maybe I should just buy the Lampre kit.

    Tiny, that looks fabulous. I'd like to see a bit of yellow in there as well:pac:

    edit: Hi guybono. There will probably be a thread pretty soon about a 3rd round of orders. You can use the search button on the bottom of the page to see how the 1st and 2nd orders worked out. Basically if at least 10 people from the forum are interested then somebody can volunteer to coordinate the order.

    I particularly like the pattern on the arms. It's somewhat reminiscent of the pattern one might find on an old persons wallpaper. Either that or their spiffing tartan-esque golf ensemble. Top show old boy, jolly good. Wot wot

    I can only imagine it is influenced by these admitted classics:

    mario-cipollini-specialized-zebra-skinsuit.jpg

    eamChipotleheadsforthelastturn-vi.jpg

    610x.jpg

    (I actually really like that T-Mobile kit although I hold it responsible for making pink mainstream respectable :D)

    We need hair (and sunglasses) like this to live the zebra thing down I reckon:

    And in conclusion, your honour, there is simply no accounting for taste. Oh, and some people are clearly colour-blind. The defense rests.....
