I think I have lost my mind. I woke up this morning and found an order confirmation for this.  and this  All I remember is having a nice dinner and a bottle of Mumm last night. I do remember going on the computer before going to bed and looking at cycling clothes. Tell me the truth, would any of you girls wear that, or should I just wear it for Christmas rides. It will be here before our ride on the 2nd of Jan.  Ride away if you think I would look like a Christmas tree.

Even a woman couldn't answer the question, and no man is going to risk it either. You might as well ask "Hey, honey, will my bum look fat in this ?" ? If I say "no", you'll never know if I'm just being polite or really mean it Have a happy holiday season... Cheers

Arm warrmers are a little over the top. White in the knicks is at least placed with some sense of modesty. Just do it, no excuse for a SMIDSY in that kit

Don't worry I will not wear the sleeves on our ride  Mulger bill wrote:Arm warrmers are a little over the top. White in the knicks is at least placed with some sense of modesty. Just do it, no excuse for a SMIDSY in that kit 
I had to google SMIDSY "Sorry Mate, I Didn't See You"

Really, I must look that one.  If they've only just confirmed, you might be able to cancel if you're really having second thoughts.

Thanks, but it was too late, it was confirmed as well as sent  , TE must have been very excited that someone actually ordered it, so they packed it and sent it ASAP, just encase I change my mind. I am sure I was the only one who ordered this. Well I could wear the pants with a white top and the top with black shorts. What do you think. Oh and Christine Tham would love the arm warmers.

If they're arm warmers that's ok. I'd ditch them. The top would be fine with a pair of plain black knicks. I don't thi k it's that bad. The shorts I could do without.
I love the cornflakes jersey. Yum yum.
i love my bike(s)

I like the pants.  ! maybe not with the top As I said, Christine would love the arm warmers, she would dye them pink and would be happy.

LOL, No, never banned when it comes to great French Champagne, unfortunately I spend most of my time buying things online, it feels like presents when they arrive. you know " Parcel at the door, you get all excited,†what for meâ€, you sort of forget that you paid for it, till it comes up on credit card

Yep Packages come to work and feels like Christmas (especially when you can't exactly remember what you ordered  )
