Yes, all I can say about the boob space in those jerseys is, "Thank goodness my sports bra smashes me enough to fit into my Cindy jersey!"

The fabric is light and kind of waffly. I think it may be the same as the AV jerseys, SK.

If you call Voler ask if the jerseys are Aries Micro Plus or SQ Pro. Jim Helser said the Aries Micro Plus is used for event jerseys and runs larger than the SQ Pro which is what was used in the Amici Veloci jerseys. There is a difference. I can tell the difference in hand, but not necessarily describe it.

So, I *finally* have some time to post. Work has had me tied up (not literally though!) for the past week. :/

Thanks, Mel, for keeping me company. I'm sure you'd have done better going a bit faster early on, before we hit those headwinds. Maybe I'll see you on another ride come June-July. Maybe by then I'll be in shape to do better at my share of pulling.

Bikeless, I still disagree. I'd have killed myself earlier if I wasn't with you. You rode at a nice steady pace which kept me from going to fast early and dying.

And you did a *ton* of pulling and IMO you did more than your fair share of pulling. I really enjoyed riding with you. Having someone to talk to always makes the ride more enjoyable.

I won't go into my specific ride report since it was similar to everyone else's... headwind, drizzle, more headwind, hills with headwinds, flats with headwinds, downhills with headwinds, oh and I think Trek mentioned headwinds... Other than the headwinds, however, the day was pretty beautiful for most of the ride. Much nicer than I was expecting... esp since I was all up in my rain gear.

did I mention headwinds?

Maybe it's because I'm watching Monty Python at the moment, but while reading Melody's post, the SNL "More Cowbells" skit came to mind. It could be altered slightly to "More Headwinds".

"We need more headwinds! Make more headwinds!"
"NO, we don't need more headwinds, it's fine the way it is."
"Well, how about more driving rain, then?!?"

(Hey, I'm half British....really corny humor runs in the family...).

Hey SK, I looked at the tag and they're the SQ Pro, Club fit. So now we know to ask in advance, I guess.

Excellent info.
