The jerseys improve your attraction to the opposite sex. Twice yesterday wearing my BB jersey women bipped and waved and on another occasion stopped to see if I was ok - I was having a Cola and some food at side of road.
Stu can even put your Grindr profile name on the back!

I thought it might be useful to share a comparison with other brand sizing. I've got a medium, and it is pretty much half way between a small endura fs260 and a medium fs260. It's slightly tighter than a medium gore bike wear xc jersey, and a medium TLD xc jersey.

Every time I wear my jersey my daughter goes 'teddy bear' and points at it
The novelty has yet to wear off

Ordered!
Went for a size larger than last time due to current excess 'winter fat' status.
Also chose to put my name on this one, thoroughly unconvinced by the wisdom of this.
Nice one Stu.

I'm just trying to work out a nickname for the back... one that's less offensive than my usual at least.

Maybe I'm more boring than I thought, but I just stuck my forum name on the back

A lad who used to work for me was commonly known as Jhan Kerr and the chap who ran the spares counter was christened Seymour Gash by the workshop ... in fact, they did him a nice lonely hearts advert under that name and strangely it seemed quite popular with ladies of a certain type

When is the last day of ordering?
Haven't fixed a date yet, I'd really like to get the ladies jerseys sorted first but I also don't want to keep people waiting ... probably a week to ten days.

Cool, keep me posted. Just been the alps and was a bit more expensive than expecting but don't want to miss out for the second time!

I was hoping to hold off until pay day a week on Friday, if it's before then let me know and I'll get my order in and eat beans for a fortnight!

Okay, let's say April 1st as an order cut-off ... hopefully, that'll give everyone time to sort themselves out.

Does that mean they'll be ready for WRT?

Hopefully but it'll depend on the production schedule I suppose.
