    Discovery kit with green planet?

    To disable ads, please log-in.

    Any one know where this available - or even IF it is available?

    On the Discovery website, there only seems to be the kit with the blue planet... Surely the kit that they are wearing in the Tour de France is, or will be, available?

    Anyone have any ideas?

    I suspect it will be available after the tour. The last year that Lance rode for USPS, I was able to order (at my LBS) a limited edition "team time trial" gray USPS jersey for my DH after the tour was over.

    Hang in there!

    OK... tour is over

    And I still want a green planet jersey - even more so now that the man I wanted in white got the yellow as well...

    But I can't find it!
    Well... to explain better, the Discovery website will load for me
    http://team.discovery.com/

    But when I click on "buy team gear" the link will not load the page!
    I see there is a link on the home page also that says :
    2007 gear now available

    But neither of the pages will load for me!!! GRRRR.

    Can someone please confirm for me that the green planet jersey is what they are selling - and then I will take my partners credit card to work on Monday and get one for my birthday!

    There's a lovely pic of Contador on the home page - what a great smile.

    They have them all on the order team gear page. It has the green planet as well as the blue planet one.
    Soooo expensive, but sooooo pretty (and Alberto isn't too hard on the eyes either).

    Thanks Tex and Tri
    (grrrr, dial up)

    So, 100 bucks US... will have to get out converter and work out NZ$$$$

    I normally never buy stuff full price, never buy because a rider or team where the stuff, try to avoid sponser jerseys etcetcetc

    However, I really want this jersey so I guess we'll just have to go hungry this week - LOL - bread and water should be ok!

    Shipping date of October sucks though!!!

    Think positive - it might well be warm enough for those short sleeves by Labour weekend.

    RR - now that you mentioned Discovery stuff - I want the helmet they had in the TdF. The one with the shark teeth and eye, it appeals to my sense of humor and I do need a new helmet this year
    But apparently they aren't available on the Discovery web site.

    Gads, if I showed up on a group ride with a helmet with shark teeth on it, my riding partners would fall off their bikes, laughing so hard.
