Darn, I was just there - I missed the cold weather knickers! Like I need to spend more money, ha ha...

I use these elbow pads for trail riding. Small & comfy.

661 Comp Elbow/Forearm

I was sure she'd like the Troy Lee stuff, but they're a little bulky for her - she wears these pads even when riding the Fullerton Loop.
I wear the 661 veggies on the Fully Loop...good choice. You can still pedal just fine with them on.

Sam, check out Harlot stuff online at www.harlotwear.com. Their knickers are simple and awesome. They use a special chamois that doesn't feel like a diaper using BCZ technology (Beaver Comfort Zone). Some of it is a bit pricey, but their stuff is so comfortable, it's worth it.

I think I remember the women's specialized gear running really small. I've always liked their styles but maybe the sizing has changed? I've got bigggggg legs!

Thanks for the lead Willie. We are up in the Bay Area now and according to their website, there is a shop nearby that sells Harlot. We'll check these out for sure.

BCZ...that's too funny.

I vote for this place they always seem to have a good selection and a sale rack with a variety of colours.

Try SheBeest Mtb apparel. The have a nice pair of knickers that are boardshort style with a removable chamois. They are light weight and fast drying. As far as Jerseys go I like Specialized and Fox. REI carries the SheBeest brands and quite a few of the bike shops...I prefer shopping at REI because of their awesome return policy. If you're not happy for any reason even if you've worn or used the item they will gladly refund or exchange your purchase with out any hassle.

Jenson Corona has a pretty good selection of womens MTB and road clothes. Ask for Bertha. She's a big help.
