    Team Estrogen on TV

    To disable ads, please log-in.

    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.

    Thanks for the link Susan.
    Congratulations on being so natural and at ease on TV.
    Hee Hee we all ready knew how fabulous you were though.

    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!!!!

    Pardes, certainly you wear cycling gloves, don't you? I mean, if you're not i could tell you some horror stories about cycling without them!
    TE sells them too! (there's lots of stuff TE sells that is awesome and NOT a Jersey, although the gal from Delaware COULD benefit from a New Jersey)

    and don't forget, just click on the TE banner at the top of this page!!

    Good job Susan! I think that you seemed more at ease on camera than the show's host (hostess?).

    +a gajillion for shopping at TE! What a phenomenal selection of sizes, brands, and styles. Not all of it is "racer chic"....plenty of casual styles that still manage moisture well. And the service is excellent!

    Especially nice to see real cyclists as models. Gee, leg muscles and everything.

    Good answer on the underwear question. Well done!

    Gee, thanks! You're all making me blush! Seriously.

    When I watched the tape, I was expecting to have more "cringe moments". You know, that feeling you get when you realize you've said something totally stupid, or mixed up your words, etc. I only had one or two of those when I watched it. And I know those goofs will mostly go by unnoticed.

    All in all, it was fun!
