Slipstream's Mustaches
To disable ads, please log-in.
Is anyone else just completely amused by the guys on Slipstream sporting mustaches? They remind me a geeky group of boys who just don't take themselves too seriously- yet they are bad a$$! The only thing that could be better is if Mr. Prim Millar would grow one.

But are those light-colored shorts going to be, um, TMI when they stand for a photo?
Remember the horror of the red-shorts photo?!

I saw somewhere that the newer team kit are going to be a darker blue.
Presumably proper chamois placement would counteract the TMI issue, at least I hope! (I've seen white shorts in some of the catalogs, but haven't seen anyone wearing them in real life yet)"If Americans want to live the American Dream, they should go to Denmark." - Richard Wilkinson

Speaking of Slipstream, does anyone eat at Chipotle? I've been meaning to give them a try. From their website, they sound pretty good.

OMG, first off, between Rock Racing and Slipstream, I am in heaven. I love Rock & republic clothing and I LOVVVEEEEEE Chipotle. You need to drop everything immediately, preferrably hungry, and get yourself a burrito..STAT. It's just one of those staple fast food joints.

Oooh, baby, this stuff looks good. http://www.chipotle.com/?#flash/food_ingredients
(whispered hint: try Speedplay Frogs instead)
Ooooh, look, you can play "Memory" with the rider's faces, as though they were a deck of cards! http://www.chipotle.com/?#flash/slipstream_the-team
(Dave Z and Martijn M are both chickens when you click them... hmmmm) Oh, man, the deck completely changes each time you pull up the page. What a blast! I'm having way too much fun with this. (now Dave Z is a different chicken picture)
Oooh, just won the game. Hey, they should give you a coupon code or something for winning!Last edited by KnottedYet; 02-24-2008 at 02:25 PM.

Hubby ordered me a Slipstream kit!
Can't wait to show my support for the boys in argyle.

Ok, help me, I'm computer illiterate; where does one order Slipstream goodies? I've been all over the website. Jeez, I'm incompetent...

I am not a big Chipotle fan but that is because here in Texas we have Freebirds. If you have ever been to Freebirds Chipotle cannot compare. I am however, a HUGE fan of Argyle! The new kit is darker and more orange, I don't think TMI is an issue.
I LOVE David Millar's TT kit. It is the British Champion Bands on his right leg and blue and red argyle on the left.Amanda

DH and I keep saying "Next time we go to Chipolte, we're going to SPLIT a burrito" - because they're just so DANG BIG!
They're about the size of a small baby. But...sigh...we always seem to buy 2. And then we say "Well, we'll just have to ride an extra 10 tomorrow!"

David Z's stache reminds me of the vintage cyclist photos of the 1800's, lol. I'll take that over the face tattoo as seen on David Clinger of Rock Racing:
