    KnottedYet - Thank you so much for the links. OMG she is such an amazing woman. I had no idea who she was. She is like the 'martha stewart of women's bicycle'. I 'googled' her too - I liked the part that her employees are 90% women and the men are in the warehouse lifting heavy boxes.

    Martha Stewart?

    Well, I'd put her more as Thomas Edison or Alexander Graham Bell. Susan B Anthony.

    Well, she might be a cycling legend, but a couple of years ago, in one of the Terry newsletters or catalogs, she let off with some political opinion. It was very uh, right wing. This was not the place for her political opinion and not just because I disagree with her (it was really pointed). I wrote an email and got a "formula" response from her. But, I never saw any more of that again. And, btw, I adore Terry clothing and buy it almost exclusively.

    Yeah, nobody's perfect. (If they were, they'd be *just like me*! ) But she has had a huge impact on women's bicycling! I admire the heck out of the engineering and business sense and determination!

    I'm planning on selling my Terry Fast Woman soon. It's a limited edition bike --a one of a kind --- that was a spare for the Team Terry captain back in 2005. Unfortunately, the TT is a tad too long and puts me in a too aggressive position.
