In search of a saddle last year I visited about every bike shop in the Saanich Peninsula and can't remember getting my feet stuck anywhere because of cool women's gear. Maybe Popoki Nui will have a few good hints though...

But do check out the Rapide shorts at MEC. At $52 (CDN!), they beat all of my more expensive shorts (PI Ultrasensor bib, Sugoi Reflex...).

They have them in black and in silvery grey this year, quite cool.
