Nice.
Ive ordered one of these, should be interesting if nothing else!

my road outfit is notably more subdued, other than a high viz top when commuting of course
ah colour wheel, thats a useful idea, just google searched it.
Yes Purpleish, or as ktache said oranges.
ta
The colour wheel would suggest a red or fuschia, but as a SWM, I think it’d take a guide from the Wimbledon tennis colours and team it with a purple. Not too fluoro, though. Happy to help.
I think the orange/black could be good, the right orange to work with that green could be difficult, but you WILL be seen.
I didn't realise being a 'roadie' meant you were colourblind, my bad, I'm glad I ride road and off road then.
It was a reference to the perceived tribalism between various 'types' of cyclists, nothing to do with being colourblind.
If you're concerned about your appearance perhaps it's time to work on a sense of colour co-ordination. Or ask a female relative or a LGBTQ friend to help you out.
As a straight male roadie with conservative aesthetic tastes I'd opt for neutrals - black or white, though a totally contrasting colour may work e.g the black/orange. Or find a jersey with some of the same green in it.
They're mountain bike shorts... How can us roadies offer advice?
