Bike Touring in a Sweet Spot® Skirt

We received this email this morning and absolutely LOVED the picture!  Great job on the tour, Erica!

Hey sweet spot folks,

  My boyfriend snapped this photo of me on a recent bike tour from Utah-Oregon. It was taken on a cloudy morning in Dinosaur National Monument (the Utah side), and just thought the colors were too great not to pass along! The skirt was a fantastic item to have bike touring, since I could slip it on and off very quickly and easily. Thanks for making such great products!

Best,

 Erica

"Photo is My Mother in Law Beth, Sister in Law Katie, and myself at the Susan G Komen Race for the Cure in Boise May 2013.

Beth is wearing a custom SSS with the Breast Cancer Awareness ribbon on it. She is a Cancer Survivor and I had the privilege of running the race with her this year in the Fast n Flirty SSS that she gave me for Christmas. We had a wonderful time and I heard many people compliment both of us. This was the first Sweet Spot Skirt I have ever owned and I can't wait to get another one.

Thank you so much for such a great product that many generations can enjoy. I can't wait until my daughter is big enough to fit into one!"

Thanks again, and hope to see you all out on the course!

Italian Travels in a Sweet Spot Skirt

"Hi There-  I saw one of your skirts on a friend of mine and decided to visit your Vancouver store and buy.  The word got out and two friends bought skirts to take on a bike/barge trip last summer in Italy.  We really enjoyed our photo session, compliments of our husbands and hope you enjoy the resulting pics"

- Susan

Sounds like an incredible trip, Susan!  And quite a bit of fun antics along the way!

Trail-A-Skirt: Happy Fan

Laura, a happy SSS fan, shared the following:

Hi Sweet Spot Skirts,

Here's a pic of me and my 3-yr old daughter (attached to me with the trail-a-bike!) each sporting our own skirt. Well, Georgia is actually wearing a dress but when you're 3 you get away with that. I wear my skirt for my bike commute to work as well as for errands, picking up kids at school, hiking, camping etc. Since I'm either gaining or losing 5-8lbs of bonus weight on a fairly regular basis (I blame my daughters for that) the snaps are perfect. I love how it always fits no matter what.

I get lots of compliments on the design and I tell everyone about it - where it comes from, who makes it, why it's so great. Thanks for such a perfect, fun product.

Sharon's email to Sweet Spot Skirts:

"After I picked up my Rock ‘n Roll race packet, my friend and I stopped by your store.  Boy, was that fun!  I have some really cool new skirts! 

Also, I wanted to tell you that I wore my Jaguar skirt.  It’s the first time I have worn a skirt in a run, and I achieved the goal I have been working on for 2 ½ years!  I was both happy and stylish.  I can’t say that I think the result was totally because of your skirt, but let’s give it some credit.  The people in the picture on either side of me are both much faster runners.  Until today, I have never even come close to their times, but today I beat them!  Yay!

Also, when I was waiting in line at Starbucks to use the restroom (beats the Port-a-Potties any day of the week), the gal in front of me in line admired my skirt.  She is from Florida and flying back tomorrow, but I gave her the name of your company so she can check out your web site. 

What a fun day:  wearing a cute skirt and reaching a goal that has eluded me for way too long!  If you look out your window and see a cloud with the number “9” on it, that is me dancing on it (wearing my fast and flirty skirt, of course)!

Sharon

PS – and this is coming from someone who was never a running skirt person!  Until now… 

Way to Go, Sharon!  Congrats on your running accomplishments!  We always claimed the Fast 'N Flirty skirts make us run faster...now we may have some proof :)

Sweet Spot Skirts in Action

This email made our day:

Hello,

My name is Patti Kaminski. I bought my 3^rd Sweet Spot skirt in a year at the bloomsday trade show and...I have attached a few pictures of my sister and myself I’m the cutest one haha really I’m larger than my(older) sister hehe.

I love, love ,love all 3 of my skirts which is really 6!!!! It is becoming a tradition for my sister and me to buy a Sweet Spot Skirt at the Bloomsday trade show. I’m a woman from Southern California in my 50’s that has recently lost 110 lbs. I work out almost every day. I long distance hill walk and work out at the gym so I wear a Sweet Spot skirt every day. They are so girly and feminine and super comfortable I don’t work out without wearing one. One of the things I like is they are so cute you can wear them after you workout to run errands and still look stylish ( you never know who you will run into).

When you are working out you feel more comfortable knowing that your Sweet Spot is not out there for all to see! SWEET!!! They always fit! Even as I was losing weight I would get excited when I could snap it tighter. It’s nice to have something that is adjustable when you are losing weight instead of having to buy new work out gear. They hold up so well. I wash mine a couple of times a week and they still look new. I love them and thank you for making them...Hope to hear from you soon take care and thanks again for Sweet Spot Skirts, 
God bless, Patti

Thanks for sharing, Patti!  You are an inspiration and the very reason we do what we do!
