My new baby for 2007
Maybe I'm just paranoid and maybe it's so completely obvious to motorists, but I try not to draw attention to the fact I'm a woman when I'm out there, but most especially when I'm alone.

"Keep plugging along. The finish line is getting closer with every step. When you see it, you won't remember that you are hurting, that anything has gone wrong, or just how slow or fast you are.
You will just know that you are going to finish and that was what you set out to do."
-- Michael Pate, "When Big Boys Tri"
Mimosa, I LOVE the idea of a non US team jersey. I like the one in the pic. I like your team jersey too.
Indy, I just ordered two jerseys from Terry. One sleeveless and the white/black/yellow with the shallow v-neck. I like the colors but it is a bit binding even though it is my size.
Mini, I am a hill slug but that's still kind of a cartoon jersey - funny but not my style.
Jenn, I like that one too.

I can't look at the Predictor JErsey without laughing... Not for the looks, I just Paul Sherwin explaining that they make Pregnancy Tests.

Yep I love the fact that I never see anybody in my jersey. Its as close as I will get to being a speedy racer.![]()
After my Amici Veloci jersey this is my favourite:

The most effective way to do it, is to do it.

I also like this one a lot...

Trekhawk, that Anaerobia jersey is very slick.
I also love my AV jersey. In fact, on my last club ride, I got a compliment on it from the guy leading the ride. He said "you win the prize for best jersey." I do think it's very striking with the red and green.
Mostly I try to wear my Velo Bella jersey, just to get it out there so people see it and maybe think about joining our team. Interestingly, I get more waves from other cyclists when I'm wearing my Velo Bella jersey. I think local clubs tend to acknowledge each other more than they do other random riders. Just my crazy theory.
Voler (Velo Wear) has some good jerseys for women, and they're cut very nicely, too. They seem to change their styles a lot, and have good sales, so it pays to check the site periodically.
I clearly have not adjusted to cycling fashion because I pretty much hate the idea of my jerseys looking like they should be on a Nascar car.

Haa haa Pooks! I hear ya!! This thread kinda proves we are all individuals with our own taste! Good!!
Some I wouldn't be seen dead inI did hear a very funny comment when it was announced that Lotto was going to be sponsored by predictor...'shouldn't the jersey be white with two red stripes?'
I've met Robbie McEwen in his predictor jersey and he wears it well (surprised how 'compact' he is though)
I wouldn't wear a pro team jersey either. Currently have two Body Torque tops, one is pink and white and the other 2 blues (yeah I love that blue kit someone posted a pic of) They are female specific, which means bit wider on the hips, no elastic in the sleeves or around the bottom of it. Good idea!
Pooks - team jerseys = Nascar ohhhhh that hurts! I tend to agree, though...
I have one team jersey - from my son's cycling team - and I proudly wear it, though I would not wear a jersey from any other team. I also have a couple jerseys from centuries I have participated in. They do have sponsors on them, but I am proud to wear them because to me they are a sign of an accomplishment.
