To commemorate the TdF starting in London…
Sorry for the grainy camera phone pics.
For $295 it will go well with a new pair of newtons. 
Rapha has a nice insert in Velonews’ TdF edition. Really, really nice stuff. Too bad I can’t afford any of it.
I know - it was a very weak moment for me; post-bonus frivolry:)
It is beautifully made - the sportwool is as soft as cashmere.
WooHoo…
Another convert to the church of wool… Rapha…
I only have two hats, 1 sportwool jersey and a couple pairs of armwarmers…
The fixie shorts are next…
Those fixie short are v nice. All their stuff is v nice. Damn.
I do like a lot of the rapha stuff - a few guys at my club have some bits that are really nice. I am a bit tight to spend Rapha type money though on a shirt when I could get about 3 or so of our club jerseys for the same money. Incidently I am about a 5min ride from the last 4th cat climb.
Though due to my great planning I am away racing that weekend doh! Still it could be worse one of the guys on the local time trial scene runs a bike shop and has been invited by Specialised to say in the Quickstep team hotel , meet all the riders & eat with the team, plus have vip ticket for the prologue and start of the main stage, but he has to go to his sister in laws wedding.
