I was so excited to get the TE package yesterday!!!

Yes, it is as nice, if not nicer, as the image!
The quality of the fabric is really good, looks very resistant to wear and tear. It has three pockets in the back, which is great, I don't like jerseys with only two. There is a looooong zipper (but not all the way). The colors are so vibrant!! It fits really well - I am usually a small but I read somewhere they are made small, so I ordered a medium and I wouldn't want it to be too much smaller so all is good size-wise. It's also significantly longer in the back then front, so my behind will be covered. (Also nicer to have the weight from the stuff in my pockets lower on my back...)
There is an elastic at the bottom but I am one of those who like that so I can't complain.
Dunno how it will do in the laundry, will keep you posted!! If the pouring rain can stop over Vancouver, I'll try it this weekend. I want to try it for a long ride so I can really enjoy wearing it for a long time. :D
