Afraid? not sure I follow you? Dropping boys or being dropped by them isn't the issue, but rather attracting every dude who wants to prove their manhood by taking on the girl riding her commuter bike and carrying a 15 lb messenger bag, when all I really want is a peaceful commute... I'd rather not encourage those types.

From their About Us page -- I just don't see what this has to do with "dropping boys":

we are a network of women triathletes and cyclists who have attitude.

We are not afraid nor intimidated by the bike or the sport.

Our goal is to bring together women in communities and world wide who share the passion of riding.

Ah - I guess they figure dropping boys proves they are tough? I prefer to commute/train in peace for the most part and when I do ride with people I definitely prefer that I've chosen them, not just gathered them along the way. I wouldn't want the type of attention that jersey would likely garner.

Well, as someone who was a bit intimidated by the bike before I started riding a lot more, and still am a bit on the scaredy cat side when it comes to upgrading to a real road bike with clipless pedals and all that...okay, a lot on the scaredy cat side of that one...I think she'd be lumping me in the need-not-apply group.

Alas.

I'd wear that and I'm the slowest woman on two wheels.

At the gym I wear a tee shirt that says "I Make Boys Cry".
So what if it's not true (anymore)? It's all in fun and a great conversation starter.

I've seen lots of women who seem to be intimidated by their bikes. And by their cars. Oy! I can totally relate to that line.

Yeah, I don't see what it has to do with dropping anyone - male or female - but it has to do with fostering confidence.

I have been dropped by guys wearing jeans, on a mountain bike, wearing a heavy backpack.
I (and my DH, a very strong rider) are regularly dropped by the local guy who has no use of his legs and rides a recumbent hand cycle.
On the other hand, I regularly drop guys on my group ride. Yea, they are old, but so am I.
