Moosey I think it may be the only way to get everyone trying kit on in one place- I shall ply them with drinks so they mellow out and agree with me.

Very strange that people abused you because of the kit. Some v odd people around though.

I'd deffo say black shorts though, as they are v practical, and you can get all kinds of legwear in black.

The URWFRC kit is nice - I guess that's printed, so you could go down that route. Looks so much nicer than a lot of running club tops. They look quite dated ?

I have never been abused for being German but Derek said he was.
Black shorts are currently what we have although some of the older design have the coloured panels in which I prefer because they match better and then I have a yellow hair bobble on the yellow side, red on the other. Sad I know.
The company seem to offer more fitted lycra versions of the club vest- which may or may not be appreciated.

Tee hee - hair bobbles. I had a pair of red/yellow cycling socks and another of yellow/red cycling socks.

Used to wear one of each. I thought it looked quite cool anyway !

And all your kit will match. Easy peasy.

ah of course then it has to be pink/purple/blue and black or I'm off to join a trithlon club.

Its the way to go. All my bikes match my club kit. Advantage of being able to buy new bikes unnoticed if they are the same colour. And I just throw on my club kit rather than trying to combine the trade team kits. My mate has a spectacular ability to clash his bike, shorts, top and mitts all at once. Outstanding ! ;-)

Sorry to be of no help but I actually like the Dewsbury kit ... it@s far nicer than the bright yellow flourescent one we wear at Rothwell ( risks severe reprimand from Roz here!).
Cannot believe people think it has nazi conotations.

Ah Mark we were discussing Rothwells fluo yellow kit and I said it's very worrying as I keep mistaking them for mile markers when I see them in the distance, then the damn things get no nearer. Derek reckoned we should have fluo orange as no one to his knowledge has that in the area. We better not join the same x country league or we'd be done for scaring the cattle.

Since when was a bright yellow fluo Rothwell vest way ahead of you in the distance?? .. if this so it sure as hell wasn't me !!
PS
I think Barnsley are fluo orange tho' they are not exactly local to us.

That will have been me ahead of Monique, Mark. Pudsey Pacers are fluo yellow as well.

An easy mistake to make.

Pudseys yellow is no where near as eyecatching as Rothwells, they are so loud if you stand next to one you miss the race briefing.
