Interviewer: So Luke when you started Rapha, you must've given a lot of thought about cycling jerseys. Tell us about that.

Luke: Well, I guess we did and we didn't. I mean you know. The whole point of Rapha really was to, was to, really give cycling some self respect and make it cool, to be honest.

I gave up there. Cyling needed Rapha to be cool? Cycling was booming when Rapha began, thanks to the Medical Miracle. :) Rapha started robbing people in the early 2000's.

I don't have a lot to say about Rapha other than this...for the price they charge, if it's made in China...jeepers, cut your resales:
