Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

let me add ugly kits with un-deserving teams to be in the pro peloton:



yes I'm mad. IAM Cycling deserved a spot on the Tour. They have been busy from the start of the year. I hope Spartacus transfers there alongside with 2 decent guys.

The Kenda-5 Hour Energy team kits on display at the ToC are some of the ugliest I've seen. I refuse to post pics of that monstrosity.

Agreed, those things are fugly and they're all over the Tour of California, which is the only cycling event that I've ever seen on cable...what a great way to expose Americans to cycling...with unhealthy bs that makes you all jittery and ugly kit to display it.

As this thread has proven, I'm an ironic hipster or whatever, but I hate their bikes too. Sorry, but the matching yellow bartape just doesn't do it for me. To me, it just screams McDonalds.

It's possible, but they're still rocking the McD's bar tape at the Tour of Cali this year.
