Cycle Chic Sundays Did Art!

What a glorious Sydney winter sunday we had yesterday.  We rounded up the chicsters for lunch at the new Deus Cycleworks cafe/store before heading down to Mike Rubbo's exihibition at Tap Gallery.

Great bike art, selling fast, go take a look before it ends on July 17th.  Mike is passionate about positive imagery of people on classic bikes as are we so of course we approve.  Mikael Colville-Andersen has been imortalised as in fact have I and who knows, maybe you have too!!!

The owner of these lovely cycle chic approved red boots is Dutch and rides a Velorbis like mine - say no more.

Paul Martin from Brisbane came down to Sydney for the exhibition - this is how I always remember him - the king of looking cool while standing and riding a Gazelle.

Oh Kate Spade - How Delicious This Is!


What a wonderfully sunny way to start the week, this being Australian Fashion Week and all - fun, frivolous and flirty.

A lovely green Abici from Adeline Adeline in NYC, a cute leather Kate Spade satchel that clips to your handlebars, killer wedges and cupcakes.

We like.  A lot!

Bicycle Advocacy in High Heels....

As an addendum to the last post - I was digging around doing some research on bicycle racks and remembered the ones David Byrne did for NYC.  Wonderful stuff - I'd love to see these heels scattered around Sydney.  His blog and book The Bicycle Diaries, chronicle David's observations and insights as he pedals his way around some of the world's major cities.  He totally gets it.  As Planetizen reviewed his book "Bryne's writings feel like haiku for urbanists".

Bicycle advocacy in high heels?  Adds a whole other dimension to the original Copenhagen Cycle Chic tag-line doesn't it?

Wonderful Ferry Cycle Chic


I love being surprised by a little commuter cycle chic first thing in the morning.  That aqua Gary Fisher bike with Thea's purple shoes - chicalicious.  Hope you come ride with us Thea !
