A Mildly Late Ugly Jersey Sunday!

So yes, first of all, it is Monday.  I realize I started ugly jersey Sundays last week, and it's only been one week.  For this I apologize.  This ugly jersey delay is sponsored by THE NFL - "For making you forget your worries all Sunday, until you remember you're a Browns fan."

This jersey is a total whopper of unsightly cycling apparel!  So, without further delay, allow me to present everyone with what I have dubbed "The Neon Shimano Jersey of Confusion."

Fresh out of the wash!

This jersey has caused more confused looks, comments, and derogatory remarks than anything else I've worn cycling.  Basically what I'm saying is that it's THE BEST!

I put on this jersey and I know I'm gonna piss some redneck in a lifted truck off.  It makes for exciting rides, with such high-visibility features as BEING ALL NEON PURPLE, PINK, AND ORANGE.  The thing is, I don't mind people yelling things at me from passing cars.  More often than not, it actually encourages me to catch up with them and have a word at the next stop light.  It's funny to see people clam up when they realize that they no longer have the protection of being in a moving vehicle.  That is pretty much the only scenario where I will say, "I love red lights!"

"So, that's an ugly jersey Steve, but how does it look on you?"

Well, let me put it this way.  It makes me look extremely homosexual and also kind of homeless.  Neither of those are bad things, and this shirt is reinforcing the attitude of "not giving a shit" recently.  Between the colors, the design of a wheelesque object made out of triangles, and the random splashes, you can only wear this if you've stopped giving a shit.

Selfie!  Because if this jersey had one word it could shout, it would be that, "SELFIE!"

The jersey itself is actually awesome.  It's super comfortable and the pockets are huge.  All in all, this has been the top I've been wearing the most frequently lately.  In short, this jersey is fantastic!
