Why can't I find any pink TLD or other jerseys on closeout?!??! I don't even care if it's "womens" if it fits. I got wide hips anyways.

I don't get it?
All the random people who will be wearing it that are nowhere near the fastest (I would be included, if I were to wear that particular jersey) :)

I think it's a strange thing to have printed in big red letters on a jersey, but to each his own.

2010 is gonna be a huge break thru year for this industry, trust me its a good thing.

Everyone needs to use the word "colorway" in 2010 because every guy with a part-time Starbucks job and a pirated version of CS3 is a "designer" in 2010.

The word colorway has been around for a while. I used to collect sneakers, and that word was used all the time.

As far as how the stuff looks...I don't think TLD's super colorful stuff has ever been my cup of tea. I don't need to call that much attention to my slow ass, haha

What's always amazing is that they pump out kit after kit and then one single pair of Black shorts to go with them all. Why no shorts to match the tops, just poofy pants.
Cause matching shorts would ghey it up to a level that has allready been achieved by the matching poof pants and jerseys. There is a "queer eye for the not so straight guy" spoof in here somewhere.

You could always get the pants and have them tailored into shorts, pretty sure that's what Stevie Smith does.. I did it with a pair of Royal BMX pants b/c they were wayy too short for me, they came out pretty nice.

Not generalizing every racer, just a few of the d-bags I run into out here (N* anyone?)... I think its comical that these folks are usually the ones that are quick to judge you for your lack of a cool bike/fork/whatever, while they are rocking the latest and gayest bright pink clown-suits and are more concerned about their appearance than my high school students. Its all about the "look at me culture" that has infested nearly every "extreme" sport. Honestly, I thought it was a breath of fresh air when that slopestyler raced the first WC 4x in a flannel and jeans. Turns out you don't need to look like a stand in for Sgt. Peppers Lonely Heart's Club Band to be fast on a bike.

It's Moto gear, some people like wearing it because it is comfortable to ride in and doesn’t tear when you crash. People complaining about others wearing moto stuff is so played out. It has kinda been going on since the early days of Palmer give it a rest already people wear whatever the hell they wanna wear when they go riding. If you don’t wanna rock the new TLD stuff then don’t buy it, but don’t bitch and moan about how much you hate the new stuff, and how super cool you are cause you ride in jeans and a flannel.

Don't think for a second that the dude in jeans and flannel didn't carefully pick his attire...

It's a 'look' in itself. "Look at me- I'm a freerider".
