So what if Hincapie is the US National Champ?? Doesn’t mean they had to dress him up like Captain America and paint up a bike to match! I think it looks so tacky and ridiculous. Cadel’s bike is pretty terrible too, but nowhere near as offensive as Big George’s ride.

Not everything in life or cycling has to be color coordinated. Wearing the leaders jersey in the Giro is an honor in and of itself; it doesn’t require full pink kit and bike to go with it. The same goes with the national champions.
