Pale Skinny Vegan I think it started when the professional racing teams brought out versions of their kit to buy. Really stupid, if you ask me!!

The woman sitting just in front of me outside the office, posing and taking multiple selfies. (I hope I’m in some of them, frowning and looking as perplexed as I feel.)

I have quite a bit of black kit - particularly shorts. My wife has advised me against wearing my bright red and bright blue shorts in public

However if I wear a dark top with black shorts, I stick a Hi viz over the top as my bike is also black (only colour it came in)

Slimming, innit.
Also, anything when made black (and slightly shiny) is better. Anything.

Think of a thing.

Now think of it in black (and slightly shiny).

See?

It's better.

As well as all the other points, it goes with everything too. So no matter what colour your bike, or your shoes, your helmet, it'll still work.

Also, have you seen white shorts? That's all kinds of wrong!
