    She Loves She Loves Hills

    Well, I finally hit a home run with the She Loves Hills Jersey. Its funny, at first I thought I'd base my decison on what to order on the design, but the designs are ALL SO AMAZING, in the end it came down to fit, at least for me.

    What worked for me with the She Loves Hills, is that while the M fit me in width like the Flourishes and Filagree S did, it gave me a little more length which I needed, and it had a more traditional length sleeve without elastic. I just detest capped and/or elasiticized sleeves. In fact, the M She Loves Hills is quite slim fitting, whereas the other 2 styles in medium looked too loose and boxy on me. My body type is broad shoulders, well endowed boobage, but slim waist and hips (kind of V shaped). As soon as I saw it on model Susan, I knew it would work for me. Now, I know I am being picky here, and while I was willing to spend this much money on a jersey, in part to thank Susan for providing this site for us, in order for me to spend so much on any item of clothing, I have to really love it.

    Tomorrow is our "Is this the Last Hill" club ride, we start in Bourne Texas and go into the Texas Hill Country to Comfort, Centerpoint, Waring and back to Bourne. Just when you have had enough, there are 3 climbs right at the end to get back into Bourne. So, it will be an appropriate inaugural ride. I'll try to get someone to snap my picture, but if only guys show up it may not happen.

    I will also add that the green is even prettier in real life than in the pic. Very bright, so while not 'fluroescent', I think it will be visible in traffic, yet the jersey is light colored enough to stay cool in the texas heat.

    I love Mimi's design as well, but I know I don't look good in that Canari style, so I had to take a pass. But, I think it was a good move on Susan's part to have them printed in so many different styles, to suit all body types and fit preferences.
