Nice!

One of the Povolaro Rossi's recently turned up in Indiana, of all places. I remember looking up the shop:

Wow, that was a long way from home. I assume you saw the jersey in a bike shop?

GS Misintese is (or was) a sports club in Misinto near Monza, used to stage a amateur race towards the end of the season each year.

Brilliant, thanks Jim....I hadn't got round to researching that Jersey as yet, so this is a great help. I've just bought a map of Italy to pin where all the jerseys may have originated

No, I found the picture of the shop online. I did, however, pass the town of Povolaro a couple of years ago when cycling from Vicenza to Bassano del Grappa with mrs non-fixie. Beautiful area.

Absolutely stunning photograph fella. I also love your Gentlemans conveyance. Was this Povolaro or another stop along the Vicenza to Bassano del Grappa?

Thanks. The bridge is the Ponte Vechio, aka the Ponte degli Alpini, we crossed when arriving in Bassano:

Jersey Update.....I have become rather addicted to these club Jerseys. Here are a few more, fronts and backs, sourced by me over the last month. Lots of research to keep me busy

Mods may find a lot of them very appealing. Not sure where you're based but a 'mod' is a fashion based music movement, mainly in the UK. Bradley Wiggins is a mod. See also the music video for the Style Council track 'My ever changing moods' for some music/jersey crossover.
