New BB jerseys - pre-order one now.
The return of an old favourite with a twist. As normal, they're pre-order with orders closing at the beginning of Oct and delivery early Dec. Order one or more here, price includes UK delivery but overseas orders are welcome: https://www.bearbonesbikepacking.co.uk/ ... tops-2022/

Ooh goodie! Vagrant is my middle name.
Note to self: remember to order XL or even XXL despite the fact I'm normally M. My first M one (the orange one) requires me to be otherwise naked or I can't get the blasted thing on. XL (the 'compass' one) I can just fit over a base+fleece.
PS. Red and black eh, we can channel our inner vampire..
PPS. Am glad Angry Bear is back.
PPPS. Who decided on the lumberjack theme? Still, bear in the woods... trees.. lumberjack...yeah why not.

That'd be kinda me Reg (BTW, I believe it's very popular in certain cycling circles) and then she who knows what she's doing transformed my scribbling into something usable.Who decided on the lumberjack theme?

Ordered, better get a red and black bike looked out! I'd be interested in a gillet as my green one is looking a bit threadbare....

Re: New BB jerseys - pre-order one now.
I always get confused between gilets and jerseys. I think one's a type of bikepacker's razor (not that I have any use for such a thing) and the other isn't.

We'll all be singing shang-a-lang as we run with the band wearing that one, surely
But no doubt I shall be ordering one

We go out into the hills to lose ourselves, not to get lost. You are only lost if you need to be somewhere else and if you really need to be somewhere else then you're probably in the wrong place to begin with.

Re: New BB jerseys - pre-order one now.
I have to stay out of the sun so the idea of wearing a fleece base layer does not quite work for me.
I do have some Merino arm warmers though.
Or I could cut the sleeves of my current BB jersey and sew them on.

Re: New BB jerseys - pre-order one now.
Yeah that was a fun option on previous jerseys (but presumably "ker-CHING!")
Anyroad, gone for XL; wavered over XXL but decided against the "Michelin Man" look in the end.
Mebbes it's just me, but I'll reiterate that I reckon these sizings are pretty "snug". My previous Medium was skin-tight and can only just manage a base-layer under it. XL still looks fine with nothing under it, but much more weather-flexible 'cos it'll handle base+fleece as well.

Re: New BB jerseys - pre-order one now.
I think it depends on the 'look' you're after Reg. Most folk would likely wear a jersey next to skin or maybe over a very thin base layer ... however, yes do size up if you'd like the pac-a-mac lookMebbes it's just me, but I'll reiterate that I reckon these sizings are pretty "snug". My previous Medium was skin-tight and can only just manage a base-layer under it. XL still looks fine with nothing under it, but much more weather-flexible 'cos it'll handle base+fleece as well.

Re: New BB jerseys - pre-order one now.
Remind me Reg, next time we meet I can explain race-fit (I'll look it up and study it in depth, having no personal experience). We could then further discuss comfort-fit, a matter upon which I have considerable experienceRIP wrote: ↑Wed Aug 24, 2022 1:24 pm Anyroad, gone for XL; wavered over XXL but decided against the "Michelin Man" look in the end.

Re: New BB jerseys - pre-order one now.
Loving that design but if Reg, who has the BMI of a preying mantis, is thinking he needs an XL, where does that leave the normals? I am nearly twice his weight and girth (and height as it happens) so suspect an XXXXXXXXL version might do it? In long sleeve ....
I'm just going outside ...
