The white bits on my kit are fine ... until you go through a puddle, or touch something like a wheel with it, then not so good. The rear panel on the shorts is not white on any of my kit though ... strikes me they're going to have permanent streaks up the back for many rides. They'll have to bunny hop trickles of water, particularly on hilly terrain roads, in the early spring, when the ground is saturated, the roads continue to run wet even when the sun's out, you'd really struggle to find a scenic ride with no water on it, it's not that different in France and Belgium, plus the Giro usually has some wet days, quite often grim when the spring classics are on as well. We'll watch with interest.

they are French, they can wear whatever they like, no matter how bad it looks Its not as bad as the AG2R brown and white kit.

There's definitely a bit of a situation here now - the few bits I've read in the press and follow up comments that I've clocked on social media make a point that if this was Sky, the daggers would be out across the globe ... quite how Astana are ducking this at the moment is beyond me, personally I've had a gut full and wish this shizzle would go away, perhaps that's the problem though now? We (many of us on here anyway) return to being cycling fans in what we consider is a new era and then get even more doom and gloom; we are in danger of getting disillusioned, if this a. proves to be more widespread than we thought (yes, we all still have our suspicions but have began to believe it was getting sorted) and b. isn't dealt with firmly ... then where does it lead and what message is going out to the people in the sport and following the sport? ... I suspect this is actually a cranking up of the thumbscrews and bigger moves are imminent though, the UCI has got to do the right thing but it's last year's maillot jaune in question here mind ... sigh ...

Being bankrolled by a government helps. The team is a disgrace and has been for quite some time. A perfect opportunity for the UCI to show if they are packing any balls.

Damn good value considering the back pockets come stuffed with EPO

Can anyone see Tinkoff Saxo? I'm sure I left them around here somewhere...

It's training kit only (I think).
