    Team Estrogen on TV

    Recently I was asked to appear on a local television program called Cycology Today. We spent an hour talking about bicycle apparel, functionality, dressing for the season, etc. I just watched the tape of the show, and since I don't look (or sound) TOTALLY dorky I decided to post a link.

    I suggest you watch it in "original size" as the picture will be a little more clear.

    There's an "intermission" in the middle for 2-3 minutes through which you can easily fast forward if you want to.

    It was alot of fun to do, although after seeing myself on TV, I don't think I'll quit my day job any time soon.

    Duh....I didn't even realize TE sold things! I must investigate immediately. However I'm not a jersey kinda girl. I prefer comfortable street clothes whenever possible.

    Susan, this is really good! And you're very articulate--not so easy to do on TV. Really well done. And cool, too.

    Are you kidding???? They're only the best online retailer for women's cycling clothes! Seriously! Always the first place I look, and typically where I end up buying everything! Fast shipping, fair prices, and extraordinary customer service. I've called and chatted about bike shorts, fit on jerseys, when a product I've seen elsewhere might be available.

    Plus, they host this little forum that I've heard is kinda cool.
    For 3 days, I get to part of a thousand other journeys.

    TE has street clothes, casual clothes, bike duds you can go from bike ride to night at the opera in .... well maybe not that but certainly ride to work and not look like a bike geek, ride in comfort and style and not look like a bike geek in the store or coffee shop. And of course we can get fully kitted out in lycra for anything from tri to mtb to walking the dog. They even have cool gifts.

    Thanks Susan (and Jeff, and crew) for starting a store that's turned into the best place in cyberspace for women (and some men) athletes.

    Long live TE.

    And don't forget, right after you click "place order", immediately go to your mailbox and the order is there!

    Seriously, probably the fastest shipping of all online retailers. You will certainly be pleased.

    Yay, Susan! You looked great on camera. Nice sweatshirt, too!

    I will watch the rest of it tonight when I get home from the Seattle TE dinner (see what you started?!?!).

    If I may quote you: at bike shops the "selection of clothing tends to be a little bit narrow" NARROW is right! Thank you for carrying so many sizes! And for having a plus size section with lots and lots of choices! (and for bringing in Brooks saddles)

    THANK YOU, SUSAN!!!!

    Indeed as said... great job, Susan, on the interview!

    Here in Mayberry, there are not very many lbs, much less ladies cycling wear. I can remember being so discouraged when I started riding never being to find what I needed. Then I think I learned about the SB brand and TE popped up from a google search. My mind was blown at all the wonderful things on here. I found the discussion boards later. Double brain blow out.

    There are times when mail order is so frustrating for me as a "need to touch it, see it first hand" kinda shopper . I have never had one problem with the service from this site with the order process.

    TE is certainly an ambassador of good will for ladies who want to ride.
