Too much info thanks 😂He'd be all over it if Pashley had team kit !
Of course, a shorter version - which I think is pretty clear to anyone that follows pro bike-racing - is:It was actually something of a joke. Obviously not a very good one as it has either fallen completely flat or whooshed over everyone's heads.
It goes something like this. "If you're the kind of person who bellyaches about other people wearing pro kit, think twice, because the object of your scorn may one day go on to lead the Tour de France. This is illustrated by this picture of Primož Roglič in his youth wearing Française des Jeux kit, despite the fact that he was not a professional rider contracted to FdJ at the time. This should give you pause before you criticise others for their choice of kit."
Explaining a joke is like dissecting a frog ...

I assume by 'plastic bike' you mean Carbon and plastic hat you mean?Full matching kit, plastic bike, plastic hat are known as ‘cyclew*nkers’ in our house.

I absolutely refuse any garment with adverts on it If they want me to dress up like a mobile bill board then my fees for advertising are very high Two exceptions my visit Yorkshire top and a charity top that the company may wife worked for had made in memory of a colleague and close friend who died of breast cancer aged thirty six
Looks more like puncture patches to meThis is what you need -

A cycling jersey with no advertising and lots of punctuation marks.
I've got quite a few team replica jerseys picked up as clearance at the price you couldn't get a plain top for - Castelli (Sky) jersey for around £35 for example. The image is usually ruined by being teamed with whatever Sportful or DHB shorts are top of the ready to wear pile - or quite often a pair of Hummvee baggies.You can get some cracking quality kit if you buy last years team stock. I've had Castelli Giordana and Nalini bib shorts at a fraction of the cost of plain clothing simply because it was out of date team issue.
Plastic hat is of course a helmet.I assume by 'plastic bike' you mean Carbon and plastic hat you mean?
So in your 'house' unless you ride a steel, alloy or titanium bike your a w*nker?
Why would that be as a matter of interest?
A strange retort ?
Looks like a ‘period’ piece 🤣This is what you need -
