park.

The really sad thing is that my 13yr old and I followed one of these
guys the other night on a ride. He was fatter than me, which is going
some, totally kitted out, blowing stop signs, gesturing at drivers,
and acting like a total jackass, all at an average speed of about
17mph. We finally just about came up on him when we had to go a
different way, but it was a great example of how not to act, and be a
total Fred for my son.

Without Goofus, Gallant just looks like a goody-two-shoes.

I actually saw a guy (yes, a guy!) riding wearing a RONA jersey while
the Tour de Toona was going on a few miles away.

(Recall that Jeanson had a positive test at Tour de Toona in 2005)

I'd like to buy an Astana jersey - I think they're cool (and I never got a
Festina jersey back in the day).

I wanted a le Groupement cap but never could find one. I saw jerseys but wasn't
interested in that. That team was doomed from the off - I think they only lasted
about six months or so.

I passed that guy in the park! Combining the OP's logic with "Millar
Line" principles, I think that means I condone doping even more than
the guy wearing the jersey.

Seeing this post makes me happy I didn't yell "Non a la dopage!" when
I went by. The thought did cross my mind. I used to have a c.1994
Festina jersey which was always good for some fun on group rides.

Tomlinson, how do I recognize you in the park? We know some people in
common from Nerd Haven days.--Shayana Kadidal

I'm the guy on a Trek Madone with full Discovery kit, matching Giro
helmet, black socks and a LiveStrongTM bracelet. Oh wait, about 1 in
10 guys is suited up like that.....

Yeah, but you're the guy with your helmet on backwards.

Maybe that doesn't help either.

It would be better if the guy who mouthed off
to the Astana-wearing dude had started his story:

"Walking in Central Park this afternoon and
smoking an enormous blunt while wearing my Yankees
baseball cap, my eyes are of course glued to the
different bikes and jerseys on the road.
The pro replica jerseys are out in full force -
including one baby-blue Astana jersey!"

So stupid I don't know where to start. Is that what you mean by NYC
style?

BTW, here's the best jersey ever, even beating out the "evil" jersey:
