I think it’s from 2005. I have to wear it ironically anyway given that I’m a tad bigger than the rabo-fired chicken. Should I stick a couple of syringes to it? Wipe my arse on it? Just wear the stupid thing once a month as usual?
I would keep it with Virenque’s polka dot jerseys ![]()
.
Heh heh…I have a Lance yellow jersey too…
I’ll trade you my ASTANA garb…
I wonder how many people wearing team-jerseys will show up to our next group ride.
I plan on wearing my Liberty Seguros jersey on my next team ride. I had been looking forever for one in my size. I think it makes great tounge in cheek. Is there a Liberty Seguros, Lib Seguros-Wurth, Wurth-Astana, Astana Vino connection with some dope sprinkled on the whole thing?
find a bag of blood and inject yourself with it… and then go find the largest hill in your area and just hammer up it.
Now if you can somehow link that to Kevin Bacon you have a winner
.
Dude, you have an actual jersey???Put it on ebay. How did you get it?
Astana is led by Alex Vinokorev who was teammates with Kevin Livingstone who was roomates with Lance Armstrong who was in ‘Dodgeball’ with Ben Stiller who was in ‘Meet the Parents’ with Robert DeNiro who was in ‘Sleepers’ with Kevin Bacon.
A thank you.
no, only one of those replicas (bought off a sale rack). I only really wear it on the trainer given that I climb like a led zeppelin. I have the shorts too but don’t wear them as they’re white and my arione leaves black marks on shorts and the chamois is pretty crap.
damn, that was good.
Now if you can somehow link that to Kevin Bacon you have a winner
Vino a teammate of Kevin Livingston on Telekom.
Kevin Livington a teammate of Lance Armstrong on US Postal.
Lance Armstrong pals with Jake Gyllenhaal.
Gyllenhaal in City Slickers with Bruno Kirby (RIP–especially loved you in When Harry Met Sally).
Kirby in Sleepers with Kevin Bacon.
Wasn’t that easy!
I did a better job…and did it faster.
edit–nevermind, you made the City Slickers connection. I call BS! You had to have used IMBD for that!
Nope, didn’t use IMDB. And you might have been faster but I had work to do first so got a delayed start. ![]()
I think you can get there in less links if you just use a movie where Kevin bacon took drugs
eg
Vino took drugs
drugs were taken in Hollow Man by Kevin Bacon
.
How about Vinokourov → Lance Armstrong (on the podium in Paris?)
LA → Matt Dillon (in you, me, and dupree)
Matt Dillon → Kevin Bacon (in loverboy)
I’d be happier if I could have somehow used Quicksilver to connect Bacon.
I didn’t use IMDB, but I did use the Oracle of Bacon (which probably uses IMDB).
wear it who cares if you climb like zepplin, you were still faster than me so weatr it with pride. i was thinking today while watching chicken and contador go at it how much i really like climbing even though i am 205 lbs and got no shot at being good at it so the polka dot jersey could be worn just because you like climbing not that you were great at it
Swap it for the Polka Dot Jersey that is actually a whole lot of ‘Dead Heads’ on it, can’t remember who makes it but I’ve seen it in catalogues. There may not be a Kevin Bacon link but there is certainly a ‘substance link’!
I rode (Col) Port de Pailheres (stage 14), starting in Esperaza, the week before the TdF started and then bought myself a polka dot cap at a little truckstop (run by an ex-pro cyclist) near Axat on the way back as I thought that it would be a good reminder of my own little brush with the mountains, and having nothing decent to climb here (Singapore) it was a VERY big mountain! I nearly bought the generic polka dot jersey for the same reason. If I go back next year and do the same ride I will. If its generic and you like the idea of a climb, keep it.
I see Cam Brown has been riding and training in the same area from his post on xtri.
I will NOT buy a team jersey… except Cadel’s of course!

get rid of it, sell it on ebay, punish that bastard chicken by selling it really cheap and on “buy now” style, not auction, and post it tomorrow morning about 8:00 a.m. pacific time. teach them a lesson! BTW what size is it?

WOW!
