    I like the CW-X by Wacoal. Several different styles. Since the design allows them to use a lighter fabric and still be very supportive, the CW-X is my coolest and most breathable bra.

    (TE sells a couple styles of CW-X.)

    I am digging the Champion breathable line that is sold at Target. They are pretty cheap and I really like the fabric, pretty much seamless and enough support for a lightly built gal like me.

    I have Underarmor sports bras. I love them but I would not call them light and breathable.

    My vote is also for the champion bra at Target. It's good for my running or riding-enough support but very lightweight and breathable. Good luck!

    I second (or third) these bras. I was surprised--given the price--to find that I like them better than the more expensive models I've gotten elsewhere. Course, I'm a 34 A and don't need in the way of support, but that's a whole 'nother issue......

    Mine aren't real, so I have to look for support before anything else...

    Road Runner sports used to make a very supportive bra just for c/d cups, but last time I checked, I couldn't find them on the site. They're awesome, because unlike most high-intensity sports bras for larger breasts, the RRS bra doesn't look like underwear, so you can wear it by itself if you so choose.

    I have a couple of those bras from years ago. Wish they still carried them! Anyway, I'm kinda past the age of tummy-baring tops, so I just checked the RRS website and ordered a couple of long-bra tops. Supposed to quite supportive. Good price, too. I will post on how they work out.

    i have a champion bra from target also, that i really like. i found that it doesn't dry quite fast enough for me, though (i sweat about a gallon a minute, it feels like ). i think there are too many layers in it...

    sugoi's fizz bra is amazingly comfortable, and super-wicking... comes in pretty colors too, and has a meshy back to it so it's nice and breathable. unfortunately it's a bit more $$ than target's, so i only have one

    Another ditto here! Again, I don't need much support (particularly on a bike) but these are lightweight and very comfortable. And the price is right.

    I am a 34 A (so obviously support isn't an issue for me).
    I think I will give the Champion bras a try - on 95 degree days I need all the cool I can get

    yep, must agree on Champion. I've reviewed a bunch and I'm defiantly happy with them, not only for cycling but for running too.

    As well as the are stylish. I know that no one sees them most of the time, but I am a person who wears sexy undergarments because it makes me feel great and attractive, even though no one else knows.
    I enjoy it all.
