In cycling white is the color of most winners, and a major thing among top level amateur pro's because of this very reason. It looks like garbage after a few hardcore rides or any wet weather. It is the only solid rich boy status differentiator when most of them are riding on sponsored team gear. Everyone knows your kit is new when you show up in blinding bright white. That forever changed how I view white. Cutting a corner on them in a race on my commuter bike was always a treat.

Whenever I do wear white, I always bring a spare top in case it gets stained
