There are lots of young women riding around here and they're serious cyclists but they aren't the spandex wearing type that's going to spend $2k on a road bike and accessories. They'll spend $200 on a SS/fixed gear instead and ride in "regular" clothes depending on how you define that.

If you want to see some like-minded, spandex clad young women on road bikes, find some triathlon training club ride or better yet, get into racing. It's still going to be mostly men though.
