As you all well know, High Road is now sponsored by Columbia, and Slipstream is now sponsored by Garmin. What do the jerseys look like?

Always wondered why Armstrong pioneered those long cycling socks - ugly way of hiding those needle marks, don't you think?

Not bad, but not particularly creative either.

Very underwhelming the Columbia. Too generic. I was thinking something with green or brown, that would be cool. Like the woods and the forest and stuff, plus that would play the whole "green" card like Discovery at the Tour last year. Very disappointing.

High Road had just a few days to get this kit prepared....as the results show. I would think that a clothier the size of Columbia would have the resources to pull this off in a more creative way.

What seems odd to me is that the jersey colors and design give it a look similar "Astana Lite" with several similar design elements.

And, if it matters much, I don't think you will see many of us rushing out to buy these Columbia jerseys for our club rides.
