hink adult cyclists who ride around kitted out in a pro-tour outfit look silly, but they're no different from the football fans wearing a team's jersey.

I agree.

On the other hand, there are local bicycle clubs that have their own competition outfits, and they really do race, so some of the people you see might be legitimate amateur racers. But I won’t deny they’re showing off a bit if they’re wearing their racing gear around town.
