Dig the worried expression ("I have to race this guy?") on the ONCE rider:

Interestingly one of the TV producers kept commenting on how lame the
numbers are in bike races and how they should have rider numbers on
their heads and on a bib on the front of the jersey.

He would fit in right here at RBR. Did he say anything about
crumpled numbers? Numbers on jersey fronts would be unreadable
most of the time even from a moto cam, though.

It is true that it's harder to identify riders when they're all
wearing helmets. Interesting that some sports put names on the
jersey and others don't (soccer also doesn't put names on).
