Casting call for women cyclists, age 55-65 - paid

Just an FYI. We got this request to BikePGH and could be a good opportunity for someone. I can't vouch for the person, agency or group, but it does appear legit. See below. ------------------------------ Hello, I have a great opportunity for some older female cyclists and I’m wondering if you can help me. I am a local talent agent and we are working on a big commercial shoot this April. The shoot will feature older women (55-65) who are avid cyclists and would pay around $1000. If you know anyone who would be interested, please have them contact me at the below number or they can email me. We are casting this week so the sooner I hear from them the better. Thank you for your help. Steve Shakoske The Talent Group www.talentgroup.com 412-471-8011 - office 412-607-7980 - cell

I would like to bring this notice to the attention of my partner, but I hesitate. Is "older" a reasonable label for the purpose at hand? (As opposed to simply "55-65"?) For one perspective: https://googleblog.blogspot.com/2014/09/you-dont-know-what-you-dont-know-how.html

So hoping some of the folks who show up are in full body armor and a full face helmet w/ a downhill rig.

They are looking for basically "fit" women who cycle regularly, or who are tri-athletes, in that 50-65 age group. The will be interviewing this week - tomorrow and Thursday - so respond promptly if interested. The likely days of shooting are April 20 - April 24th. If you know anyone who fits, the bill, have them call immediately. It sounds like a fun gig!
