Need Cycling Clothes for Girls

[Crankin]

I will be sending some jerseys, wicking t shirts, and maybe a skort.

I also have some shorts, gloves and a helmet. Does anyone know if he is accepting helmets? ..never crashed, 3 years old and I might be able to rustle up a jersey. What about shoes - what are they wearing?

Mimi, could you put the picture in this thread? I'd like to see to get an idea if what I could send would fit anybody.

Thanks!!

these are minors and i don't have their permission to post their pictures on line. Send me a PM with your email and i'll gladly share it with you. I will say that the girls look like they go from XS to Medium with maybe a large or two thrown in.

you can find their photos on the program website:

I think all donations will be put to good use.

here's the one he sent you're right, it was on the webpage

Thanks! I'm sending out a box of things--mostly jerseys and a couple of pair of shorts, too. I am asking for a receipt for tax purposes. Looks like a fun group, doesn't it?

My LBS is closing down for a month. Major renos, name change etc. They had a $10 table, so I picked up a couple pairs of gloves and 2 Cannondate bike shorts. Also picked up 2 pairs of socks. Mind you, one of the shorts has some fish design (tasteful) on the sides - but I'm hoping there is one gal that likes to be a bit different.

Then I bought some stuff for me....

I have three plain-colored, long-sleeve jerseys (size S) I could donate since rarely ride in cool/cold weather, but I expect they're doing the ride at a time of year when they'd want short-sleeved or sleeveless jerseys. Does anyone know? I would be happy to donate them if they could use them. Unfortunately I don't have any extra SS jerseys.

Emily, considering where they are from, I imagine sometimes they're going to need that kind of jersey too.
I just now got my box ready to mail.

just packaged up a parcel with 3 great primal jerseys, pair of new shorts and a couple pairs of cycling gloves.

thanks for giving us the opportunity to give away our less used items to such a great cause!

I have a few things kicking around - a barely used wind jacket and a pair of wind pants. A couple of x-small jerseys and a couple pairs of socks. My husband threw in a jersey as well, though I doubt it would fit any of the girls... maybe a boy can use it. I'll see if I can hit up the team for some of our excess and check the local shop that sometimes has shorts on sale for under $10.

Sometimes Bicycles West has clearances on old stuff - yes it may be 5 years old.... but its really cheap. As long as its not a helmet who cares. It's not like cycling short styles change so drastically everyone will be looking as saying that's so 90's....

Lorri,

Sounds like you've had quite the response to this. Can you find out if your friend's group still needs clothing? I have a BIG box of pieces that need a home. Most of the items are "lightly blemished" warranty items for which we've received vendor credit. I'm free to do what I want with them. Most of it is still quite functional (much of it unworn) but not sellable.

If he still needs apparel, I'll send a bunch. Otherwise, I'm open to suggestions on where to donate these items.
