Found this while looking around on the web. They also have some reproduction jerseys (Gitane Leroux, French national team Gitane, etc.), but the shorts are much harder to find.

Saw those...I have a bunch of shorts that are too small for me, and I don't want to be reminded of how fat I am yet another time!

I tried to do the same thing with the decals that were up today, but I was out all day at a deposition, so didn't have the opportunity to bid again on them....

I know what you mean...this morning it is FORTY SIX DEGREES outside! There is some frost on the neighbor's roof....oh...its melted already. That is similar to what you are experiencing in Illinois, right?

If it gets below 50 here, people are dressed in fur. 46 is the low...it should be another sunny 70 day here...the dead of Winter in So Cal! I lived in Chicago, and the sub-20 degree days I do not miss at all.....

I'm more interested in the Maillots et Casquettes Mythiques que Cuissards.

A nice classic Anquetil jersey would be great! I'd like to know more about their jerseys before plunking down €52,00 EUR. I have several printed lycra retro jerseys. They look OK until washed and worn.

I try on shoes and shorts before buying. Anything I'm going to wear while sitting on a bike for hours has to be comfortable.

I wonder how easy these folks are to buy from on line? Maybe Nicolas can check them out for us. Who wants to be le cobaye (guinea pig) Laughing

BTW, I was in Santa Rosa yesterday afternoon. It was 32° F (0° C) while I was putting gas (petrol) in my car.... Brrr! Mad
