This is Team Solgar Colombia, currently competing in this weekend's Giro Toscana Femminile. Not great at all, is it?

From that distance it looked bad enough for some commenters to suggest that the kit was an insult to women's cycling and that the team should refuse to wear it. However, sports statto Hilary Evans tweeted us a clearer image which seems to show that the design is just a really terrible one, rather than the sexist monstrosity it appeared to be on first viewing. It's still no excuse for insisting that the team compete in them.
