Introducing em:pwr cycling
We mentioned a Bike Shop Girl cycling team for 2011 and with much discussion, planning and “crayon on napkin” design we are ready to reveal!
Welcome to em:pwr cycling
Yes, this is the team for all teams. If you are a sponsored rider or a recreational cyclist we are for you.
em:pwr cycling. em:pwr yourself. em:pwr others.
Our mission is simple, empowering ourselves and others to get on a bicycle to ride or to go faster and smarter on that bicycle. We aren’t elitist (even though some of us are fast), we will ring the cowbell for any and all cyclist. Creating a global community of like minded cyclist, and creating a portal to find knowledge or motivation to go that much further by bicycle!
Are We Preaching to the Choir?
If you are reading this you love bikes or have some interest in them. We are creating a force across the land that will bridge the gaps of beginners, women, children, men or fans.

This sounds like a team I could get behind! And I mean behind — I’m a really slow rider, but I ride 10-12 miles almost every day.

Love the concept and name (even though hot pink makes my red-headed self cringe). List me up!

Kudus to the hot pink comment. Pink is for boys. When we stop creating our own image as less than men (read pink here) we will truly begin to be on an equal playing field. Let’s em:pwr ourselves right out of that stereotypical pink marketing machine. Read powder blue here and sage/mint green, lavender too. As a woman built company that produces high performance bicycles for all people, I keep the men’s rack “over ther in the back somewhere” and pink is prohibited from being in, on, or around the shop.

Love it, love it, love it! The kit is just beautiful, as well as making an “em-phatic” statement. Right on!
