    I love Sheila Moon and her design and far be it from me to disagree with her. And where is my button that says "ask me about my degree in design". Back in the day I was in school this was called "social error".

    That is the t-shirt with the logos right smack dab on the b00bs, the typo that is an obscenity in Farsi for a product bound for the Middle East ...

    I don't want to beat a dead horse but while her clothes are a wonderful solution for cycle wear you can step off the bike and into the store or a meeting. WE understand why someone would want abrasion resistance, preaching to the choir!

    People in the store or meeting who we are trying to wow with our coolness and hipness will not.

    Looking through the eyes of a non-cyclist it looks just wrong.

    The outfit is almost perfect yet I bet RuPaul (see RuPaul rides thread) has no visible abrasion resistant stripe or chamois pad. Knowing Sheila she'll find the perfect pad for the fabric or vice versa and have a version that is even more stunning.
