News, Colombian women’s flesh-coloured cycling kit ‘unacceptable’, says UCI (red, look)

[JD59]

The design of a new flesh-coloured kit that makes a Colombian women’s cycling team look naked below the waist has been described as unacceptable by Brian Cookson, the president of the UCI.

Photographs of the Bogota Humana team were taken at the Tour of Tuscany, showing six women wearing red and yellow kit with flesh-coloured material immediately above and below the waist.

What I've read about this is that the fabric is actually a gold color, but it tends to photograph in a very misleading way that makes it look like bare skin. It's an unfortunate choice if that's true, but at least if you saw the women in person they might look OK.
