my wife just informed me she washed my only solid colored summer jersey with a pair of our sons velcro sandals. the velcro has eaten holes in the jersey.
the only other jerseys i have are:
- curious george jersey (father's day gift)
- lienine's jersey
- red wool jersey with rainbow stripe cuffs
- blue wool longsleeve
- castelling long sleeve thermal
- yellow long sleeve commuter
do i need to get a new solid colored jersey before my first citizen/Cat5 race?
I don't think there are many snobs in cat. 5. If you listen carefully, however, you might hear mocking from the cat. 3s as they warm up. Wear whichever one is the fastest.
I remember a cat 5 race with a guy wearing a white V-neck undershirt. it was great, he kept taking these crazy fliers off the front. I'm not sure if he ended up finishing, but I appreciated his less than serious approach to the whole thing. my point is that in cat 5, I wouldn't worry about it. wear whatever you want

I wear this all of the time around town, but I try to stay with solid colors when riding with others (including race)
In my own crazy head, I believe that crazy WV ******** will be less tempted to hit a cyclist with a bright beer jersey, compared to say.... a pink and baby blue WVU cycling jersey I saw last week >.>;;
I had to wear a white t-shirt once because I brought a sleeveless jersey by mistake. I tried to wear the sleeveless, but the official said no. I guess i was really livin' on the edge leaving 3 more inches of shoulder exposed like that

There is a team in Central New York that is sponsored by one of the best breweries in America. Brewery Ommegang sponsors a team and they put on a cyclocross race at the brewery every year.
They have really sweet kits in full belgian national colors(Ommegang brews Belgian style beers).
So, nothing wrong with a beer jersey. Wear what you like and have fun.
wear this one. everyone will figure you are a crash waiting to happen (again) and will give you plenty of space.
best of all worlds.
