Second hand club jersey preferably the black one

Need a couple of old second hand club jerseys to use for cyclo cross training and competitions. Size medium or large.
The black one would be good due to the mud and getting it clean but any club tops no longer being used would help

Thanks

Jason

Can't help you on the black jersey but I do have an old Large normal short sleeve jersey. I can post it, if you don't mind covering postage.

Incidentally, if racing you have to wear the registered colours, otherwise British Cycling may have a fit of temper. That excludes black.

Jason, I'm afraid that I can't help, but I should point something out that maybe you aren't aware of. You say "for training AND competitions". The jersey design that's registered with BC in compliance with their requirements is the red, white and green design. Strictly speaking, anyone racing under BC regs is required to wear that design, and is at risk of being DQed if they don't. I think that's pretty unlikely to happen, especially in a CX event, where there is rarely any coordinated teamwork, so opponents are not really disadvantaged by people wearing irregular kit. However, it *might* happen if you get some jobsworth race official, so it's good to be aware of the situation before deciding what kit you want to wear.

Thanks for the advice George. Much appreciated. I wasn't aware of such strict ruling, it's worth me being aware.
