Saxo Bank and Omega-Pharma Quickstep get new kits

Saxo Bank and O-P Quickstep both unveiled their new kits for 2012. Saxo decided to get rid of their traditional white uniforms and opted to go with a blue. I think the color is very intense but I can't really decide if i like it or not. I'm just not that into it I guess and I really miss the old jersey but i might grow to like it.

Here is the back of it, definitely obvious who's shelling out the cash to sponsor the team.

On the other hand, I really like the new O-P Quickstep jerseys. The old Quickstep jerseys were a little bland but the new ones have something about them that makes them very attractive to me.
The color for once is spot on, not too overwhelming but very unique and symbolic.

The flow of the black down the side is really nice and the bikes really make it pop with their black frame and celeste accents. Interestingly Specialized seems to have made a custom color for Quickstep this year but not for Saxo Bank who seems to be riding plain black SL4s in their team training. Maybe they are working on something to look for later on? We'll just have to wait. 

Some things I really hate

There are not many things that I really despise when I see others riding their bikes. But like a normal human there are things that just upset me. For example people that ride their bike without a shirt on. Where in the world is that acceptable? I think that it's already disgusting and revolting to see people running without a shirt on, why do I want to see a person bike without one? I don't want to see your sweaty back, front, or crack so put a shirt on and make it a cycling shirt, which brings me to another thing I really hate.
People that don't know how to dress for riding a bike. It really amazes me that to this day there are adults that don't have the awareness to look around and see that what their are wearing is atrocious. It's not just woeful color combinations, it's also fit. Fit is very important in looking good whether you are riding or just walking on the street. Please no XL fits on a 120 lbs. guy, and really when your bib has been washed so many times that it went from a M to a XL buy a new one. They are not that expensive. Also why do people insist on wearing neon yellow jackets in the middle of the day? I see you, everyone sees you, because you are burning our retinas (maybe we can't see you anymore after staring at your jacket for too long.). You are not a construction worker, and you are not riding in the middle of the night.  
And what the fuck is up with a mirrors attached to a bike helmet? You look silly, and it's really not that safe, it's distracting, and you keep looking over your shoulders like someone is out for you.

You see it's not that many things I really dislike, but those I do really bother me.
