Rapha, nice but a bit pricey?

Always found the bib shorts hard to figure out, smalls are short on the thigh but anything bigger is baggy on my thighs. Need a word with Hugh Carthy to find out who does his tailoring

Buy longer ones? :)

Pros get custom sizing

Any RCC members up in here. Drop me a DM.

Tempted by the lightweight shadow jacket but I find my Gabba pretty sweaty, not sure I get the whole "kind of waterproof but not really and if it actually rains you'll need a proper jacket anyway" thing. Am I missing something?

If I have a Gabba and don't like it much, no point getting the shadow jacket presumably...

For me, the Gabba is more about the windproof front and it stays pretty warm even when you sweat/get soaked. I get sweaty and the jersey gets pretty damp, but not to the point where its uncomfortable.
The short sleeve perfetto is the lighter, thinner Gabba, might be worth considering if you're finding the Gabba too warm?

I'll wear my gabba+nanoflex arm warmers on a damp/wet fast ride because its more aero and keeps me warm enough, but probably put on a long sleeve jersey + rain jacket if on my own.

The shadow jersey is more like a gabba I thought. The shadow jacket seems a bit pointless to me, it’s also at an odd price point. Not sure why you’d get one over a Shakedry?

My LS shadow jersey I think is a bit thinner than a gabba

If the weather is too bad for the Shadow you stay at home?

Sandwiches have no meal allocated to them IMO, breakfast, brunch, lunch, tea, dinner, mid-night.

Sandwiches are a solid lunch food and sometimes acceptible snack.

not into breakfast sandwiches? fried egg between a bagel?

fwiw Kalas do a + size for longer bibs. I've got a pair of size 2 which are way too short on thighs to wear out n about but the 2+ are perfect. Good chamois too.

I am just jealous of people born with good metabolism, I am born a brown tubby uncle.

Uh Mcdonalds breakfast sandwiches for starters? How about a bacon or sausage bap?

Controversially I'm also going to a say a burger is also a sandwich

They're more brunch than breakfast. The only acceptible pure breakfast sandwich is bacon in white bread from a roadside food truck at 6am.

Why is that controversial?

completely agree BUT swap bacon for length cut sausage and lots of HP sauce

@PhilDAS have a chip butty ! They are dreamy.

What about all the open sandwiches?

Animal corpse shavings are not a suitable sandwich filling.

Chip butty

Winner, but still not for breakfast

they can absolutely fuck off, so messy to eat, the ideal is a breakfast burrito in terms of the 'container', dont agree with texture though

I think we can all agree the breakfast burrito is the real winner here.

Use cutlery peasant. This is the Rapha thread.

I dunno, they are never in the sandwiches section of the menu, always in their own burger section. I thought some people might feel strongly about it
