DESIGN SLIPSTREAM'S KIT
Love it or hate it, there's no doubt that Team Slipstream-Chipotle's pastel Argyle team kit is the subject of many conversations among race fans. Some say it's taking things too far down the golf route, others thing it's the height of style among the lurid, logo-infested Euro clobber of the pro peloton.
In a bid to silence the critics and have a bit of fun along the way, Slipstream are asking fans to submit their own design for next year's team strip. The winning design will be made into the team's official kit and used by all the squad during the entire 2008 season.

Nigel Wynn worked as associate editor on CyclingWeekly.com, he worked almost single-handedly on the Cycling Weekly website in its early days. His passion for cycling, his writing and his creativity, as well as his hard work and dedication, were the original driving force behind the website’s success. Without him, CyclingWeekly.com would certainly not exist on the size and scale that it enjoys today. Nigel sadly passed away, following a brave battle with a cancer-related illness, in 2018. He was a highly valued colleague, and more importantly, an exceptional person to work with - his presence is sorely missed.
