Your two cents...

[Pelotonna]

Whew! Another scorcher here in sunny southern cali! No riding today.

I've been a fan of this forum for some time but have only recently registered. I am actually thinking of starting a clothing line exclusively for women cyclists. I've posted a survey in the apparel section titled, "help me build a better jersey". I invite you all to go check it out and give me your two cents. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

OK, so I guess the key to riding in this is heat is to get up really, really, really early. Hmmm, not really my forte but I guess I gotta do what I gotta do.

Thanks in advance for checking out my survey!

Pelotonna, welcome and good luck on the launch of your new clothing line.:) I'll make sure to check out the survey later.

I started but it's late and I can't find a tape measure.

I'll do it tomorrow.

I can't get myself to wake up early either, and yes, it is way too hot here in SoCal. I was kind of bummed I couldn't ride today. Went to the gym instead and it was boring.

Funny thing is...I was thinking the same thing...about designing my own line of cycling clothes for women as I went to Cynergy and Helen's Cycles today in Santa Monica. There is just too much ugly stuff out there!

[roadie gal]

So much of what's out there is ugly and UNCOMFORTABLE. It's more for primping for the guys that actually wearing to ride. I will completely support any effort to make functional clothing for women.

Could somebody design a really good running bra, one with wires, (unfortunately I have to have them), no muffin - top over the edges of the bands, that really stops bounce , but doesn't feel like a body cast? I could be the test guinea pig!

They already have. We call them Title Nine Sportswear. Try this one:

Flowers be damned, I'm really coveting this jersey (http://www.teamestrogen.com/products.asp?pID=30269).

I've bough quite a few bras from Title 9, and I really like most of them, but I hadn't tried that on (superwoman bra) Does it have wires? I couldn't tell from the description.

Your biceps will look most stunning in that top. Canal boys, look out!

I actually do really like a few of those Primal Wear tanks (though I'm not usually a fan of Primal Wear). Wish they had open rear pockets though, instead of zippered.

Cute, cute tank. But my tan lines! I have a white strip down the back from razor back tops, with those thin lines criss crossing - gah!! :p
