    I'm five-four, 124# and barely fill out a 36 B. Think a small jersey would do the trick? I am trying to decide between long or short sleeved.

    I was thinking just that!

    As for elastic...meh, I could go either way. I have a couple of jerseys that have it and the elastic never stays put. My favorite jersey, a Zoic, doesn't have it, so I may go that route.

    I think I will wait until LRRH and just try one on, uh, most likely pre ride! I'll be there early anyway.

    Yellow, your opinion for Tater? Not many people ordered smalls.

    Tater, do you like race cut jerseys? In other words, traditional jerseys with eleastic at the bottom? You might be able to go either way depending on your hips. I hate elastic because it rides up and settles around my waist leaving a very unattractive gap of white goo showing.

    Ok, I'm still having issues with the sizing. According to the chart, I'd be a small in every category except hips. Is that reason enough to order up for a medium? I have one jersey that is a little big, and the flapping in the breeze annoys me, so I'm torn.

    I'm 5'4", 34A/B with a 27" waist...all my weight is in my butt and legs...so I'm pretty small on top.

    Small or medium?

    Perhaps my previous post would help you decide.

    Lesee...You have 2 inches on me and I am a 36A. I have the women's club cut in a small and wish that I had a med. It fits, but more snugly than I like. I have muscular arms/back/shoulders, so that may be part of why it fits the way it does. I am generally pretty true to a small in just about everything.

    In Voler's OTHER fabric, I'm comfy in a small race cut. But as SK noted, this fabric fits a little tighter, hence the "smaller" feel.

    Tater, we'll have our AV jerseys at the LRRH. You can try them on (pre- or post-ride )

    OK, another question

    As the weather finally warms up in Chicago, I'm leaning more to sleeveless vs. jacket (yeah, Corsair, I know, get both!)

    So now I'm debating--sleeveless jersey vs. windvest. It looks like the windvest could even be worn on its own as a jersey. Does anyone else own a windvest?

    Those 4 arm warmers... is that pairs of arm warmers, or each one? If I were to order one for each of my arms would the total go to 6? (I'd have to talk to my friend with PayPal...)
