News bot Posted January 25, 2015 Posted January 25, 2015 All MTN-Qhubeka p/b Samsung riders will sport different letters on the back of their jerseys this year. Watch out for Nic Dougall who opts for the big U! Soon, fans will have the opportunity to own their very own team jersey with their initial on it too. Click here to view the article
rock Posted January 25, 2015 Posted January 25, 2015 the UCI are going to love this....... Spoke101 1
T-Bob Posted January 26, 2015 Posted January 26, 2015 Why not just put their names on the back? Maybe because that really would look like a Newcastle Strip! GLuvsMtb 1
Shebeen Posted January 26, 2015 Posted January 26, 2015 so anyone can do this? surprised more teams haven't thought of this just to get a bit more exposure....always about being just that little bit different. reminds me of leicester rugby club, who only very recently were stopped from using letters instead of numbers on their jerseys. Went from A-P instead of 1-15...the front row was known as the ABC club http://images.teamtalk.com/10/11/800x600/Berrick-Barnes-edited2_2525175.jpg
rock Posted January 26, 2015 Posted January 26, 2015 IAM had to change their jerseies with names on the back.......
rock Posted January 26, 2015 Posted January 26, 2015 someone mentioned what the overhead shots might look like of the sprint train?
rock Posted January 26, 2015 Posted January 26, 2015 Farrar leading Dougal followed by Ciolek then Sbaragli Gnarly, shaper, Shebeen and 1 other 4
Shebeen Posted January 26, 2015 Posted January 26, 2015 Farrar leading Dougal followed by Ciolek then Sbaragli rubbish, it's ciolek, dougal, niyonshuti, thomson.
shaper Posted January 26, 2015 Posted January 26, 2015 rubbish, it's ciolek, dougal, niyonshuti, thomson.Hahahahaha, that would be funny !!
Eldron Posted January 26, 2015 Posted January 26, 2015 Rider scrabble! I can see all sorts of interesting words being spelt out in the peleton... Gnarly 1
Cheese Posted January 26, 2015 Posted January 26, 2015 Think its a brilliant way , Not sure what UCI will say but assumed they cleared it when I saw the post. It is also almost uncanny how almost the whole team fits in into the alphabet. Only very few that had to be given letters that does not match.
