O'Grady's Old Guys Who Get Fat In Winter jerseys return

Published July 28, 2015

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (BRAIN) — Patrick O'Grady is once again offering the Old Guys Who Get Fat in Winter Racing Team jerseys. The jerseys feature the cartoon Old Guy created by O'Grady for VeloNews magazine in 1989, as well as various sponsors including Wide Load Diner and Spare Tire Ale.

O'Grady — a columnist and cartoonist for Bicycle Retailer as well as several other publications — featured the character in his own book, "The Season Starts When?" 

The jerseys are made by Voler in California, and are available in two versions and in men's and women's sizes. 

"The original yellow jersey mimics the famous yellow kit worn by Himself in the cartoons, while version 2.0 features El Grande prominently at bow and stern. Both are handcrafted right here in the US of A from free-range, grass-fed, cage-free, non-GMO, virgin baby polyesters and feature full-length zippers that display one’s man-cleavage to the fullest possible extent permitted by law," O'Grady says.

They retail for $77 from the Voler website. Because they are produced on demand, allow up to seven business days from the time of payment approval before shipment.
