Being pro means giving your sponsors props 24/7, on the bike and off. And since pros more or less live in hotels it means they're in the limelight any time they're not cloistered in their room communing with their Playstations. When they hit the hotel restaurant to eat their overcooked pasta and muesli or schlep through the lobby to get the team car, etc., etc. they're fair game for the snapshot-happy tifosi and the media. While they might prefer to be invisible and do their daily off-the-bike chores in peace, wearing plain jane Banana Republic ain't helping the sponsors….so….welcome to the world of the logoed fleece top. It's made from micro-denier 100% polyester fleece to be nicely insulating without being stifling, and the CSC and Riis Cycling logos give the sponsors that extra ounce of marketing they want. Pros don't just get paid to be fast. They're living, breathing billboards, and it's a 24/7 job. You might not be able to look like Frank Schleck in the mountains, but wear this fleece and you'll sure as heck look like him at the dinner table -- especially if you limit yourself to 80g of pasta and half-an-apple for dinner. Available in sizes Small-XL.
