Susan it was Claudia (she's actually a member of my bike club). I'm surprised she didn't mention that she has been working with TE to develope more Plus size clothing. Alot of women who attended the event would have been happy to hear trust me. All us old, frumpy women who ride were getting real frustrated seeing size 2 after size 2 model clothes. The one thing I think most manufacturers need to realize is that generally women are getting bigger, not just broader, but taller and just bigger. I'm 5'8" and don't feel all that tall any more. In my bike club, alot of the women are much taller. And even a skinny 6 footer won't ever wear a size 2!
I would really like to see bike clothing expand into size 16 to at least 20's but still have style and some fit. Larger sizes tend to be unfashionably tent like. Too big. There's needs to be a happy medium somewhere.
Anyway look forrward to what's coming...
