You also don't have to have a cycling jersey for riding. I often don't wear an actual cycling jersey. The only difference between a cycling jersey and a fitness top is pockets. And I HATE to have stuff in the pockets!

I have gotten some great fitness tops at LL Bean and Patagonia from their On Sale selections, usually at less than half price. And you can wear them for other things. I wore one to a party the other night because it was black and sleeveless and looked good with my skirt.

Fitness tops are more comfortable than cotton Ts because they wick the sweat better.
