Stars and stripes

Karen and I have always been partial to red, white, and blue jerseys. For years we’ve talked about getting matching jerseys with a stars and stripes motif, but we’ve never found exactly what we wanted. We’ve found lots of jerseys with the right color combinations, but not quite the right patriotic flair.

Now Betsy, Karen’s niece, models the neatest jersey in this photo. We’d love to have one, but it’s far out of our league. You see, that’s a National Championship jersey, and she’s wearing a gold medal for winning the criterium in her age group class. We’re proud of her.

Our cycling attire nowadays is pretty drab, as is our cycling. Perhaps we need to spiff up our image to put us in a mindset for riding more.
