The great jersey sale

A while back I started retiring all of my "old" jerseys... we all have them, stuff we thought looked cool at the time and now we just shake our heads wondering what we were thinking. We don't wear them anymore for fear of being ridiculed and beat down by the bike trail bully. Especially with our new "team" jersey design finally coming to fruition, these gems have got to go. It breaks my heart to part with them, but I'll just be happy to know they're going to a good home...

Buyer's note: If you are from Nigeria and are "very interested in my jerseys", please note that I only accept cashier's checks and that I prefer them to be thousands of dollars over the jersey amount so that I can send you the difference back within a day of actually cashing the check. If that sounds good to you please send me an email by clicking here Icantbelieveiamdumbenoughtoclickonthislink@yahoo.com

Triple Bypass 2005
If suffering for 120 miles over 10,000 feet of vertical gain wasn't enough, the freezing cold rain down Vail Pass, near hypothermia, and $100+ entry fee was.



No Fear Dangerous Sports Gear
Warning, if you do not participate in dangerous sports with no fear, you will probably be disappointed with this jersey. Comes with a complimentary bottle of Mountain Dew. For EXTREME risktakers only!



24Hour Fitness
We all remember the 24Hour Fitness cycling team and how they dominated the sport, those were the good old days.



Pearl Izumi solid blue, the "pack-filler"
This jersey is reserved for pack fillers in Right Guard commercials and biking movies. Surprise your friends and the bike trail heroes when you out-ride them while wearing the pack-filler jersey.



Pearl Izumi blue w/ white stripe, the "contender"
This jersey is reserved for hungry contenders that just can't quite catch our hero, it has added coloring to differentiate contenders from pack fillers in movies and Right Guard commercials. In a real life movie, Basso and Ulrich might wear something such as this while chasing Lance. Anyone fighting Rocky might also wear this jersey.



Performance long sleeve hooded jersey - savin' the best for last!
Famous Performance fit and quality, will fit best if you have tiny shoulders, tiny head, and HUGE beer gut. Hood hugs the head so well even Sir Lancelot would be proud.

Great Post! It made me laugh pretty hard.

I think I have a couple jerseys just like those. Plus, I can add at least one to your sale. My "Trailer Trash" jersey. I cut the sleeves off to avoid a farmers tan. It wasn't a good look then and it isn't a good look now. Especially for a guy with wimpy cyclist arms, such as myself.

What was I thinking... :)

The Performance one looks a lot like a purple "fun" condom one might buy at your local Truck Stop.

I'm guessing along with these you have about 20 more in your closet still? Now if I can get my husband to part with some of his old jerseys....it will be hard.
