Comments on: Exactly Sexy Enough for My Shirt http://www.fatcyclist.com/2007/02/04/exactly-sexy-enough-for-my-shirt/ It's like reality TV. Except it's real. And there's no TV.

Mate, aside from being a region of Scotland, the word "Clydesdale" can also refer to: 1. a breed of working horse typified by huge mass and strength. 2. a fat cyclist typified by huge mass and (we'd liek to think) strength. So yes, this is a joke. A rather fine one IMHO. The passing resemblence to Ferrari's prancing horse is the icing on the cake. If you ever see a Clydesdale (of either type) the mental image of he/she/it prancing will be one to treasure. I am trying to spot the irony in Greg’s post.

So are you going to re-do your site with the new logo and colors? A. Yep. No way. Either this is a joke or you don't realize a horse has absolutely nothing to do with cycling or fat cyclists. You've smashed your head too many times man. Q. So are you going to re-do your site with the new logo and colors?

I know it is a bit of extra work for you Fatty, but you know we are worth it :) How about signed and numbered shirts for the first day orderers, a bit like a limited edition print or a first day cover stamp release.

I just wanted to know what number I was going to have to scrawl in indelible ink somewhere on the jersey for historical purposes. Thanks, Fatty.

Very excited to see the jersey come to life though. I will be checking the mailbox 3x a day once May comes. I like the colors and logo (reminds me of Ferrari), hopefully the size L will do the trick. I'm on the fringe, some days I'll qualify for the '201' clydesdale rule, others I don't make the cut and will just be wearing a jersey with a horse on it.
