When I heard that the color was supposed to be black, I was dreading seeing what they would wear. These will show up pretty well when they are out in front. I will still miss the red, white, and blue. For an American team racing in Europe that was a natural. Of course with the way the US is viewed abroad right now, something less national may be better anyhow. No decisions yet on which races Lance Armstrong will ride this upcoming season, but Discovery has committed to fielding teams for all the races for the Pro Cycling Tour including the Giro d'Italia, the Vuelta of Spain, and the Tour de France. He has said he wants to try some of the other races before he retires but still wants to to the Tour one more time- but perhaps not this year. We shall see.

that splash of yellow looks a bit out of place on the sleeve, but otherwise the kit looks cool.

I'll miss the USPS jerseys... I always thought they looked very classy. I even liked most of the speciality ones they designed. Seeing Lance power up the mountains in the red white and blue was just that much more meaningful I suppose...
