Shakespeare in Love

I've been spending a bit of time at the Shakespeare pub in Surry Hills lately and there are a lot of bikes down there... a smorgasbord of chic if you like.

Got chatting to artist Marian the other day - this is her with her Agressor, the same bike she's had since she was 12.  Brilliant.  

As It Was.....

Mr Chic spotted this image in Redfern this morning - gorgeous reminder.

Summer on the Street in Redfern

Friends With Bikes

Ah Summer, spontaneous catch ups with friends on the street before riding on.

Blink and you miss her........

The elusive chic citizen cyclist, flying by.  Some days it's hard to get the lens cap off in time but it turns out to be perfectly framed anyway.

Three Colours Red

There's a brilliant blog I've been following for a while - Downtown From Behind.

It's a quirky, unique photographic series of people on their bikes in lower Manhattan.  A great concept and beautiful photographs.

This was a little more haphazard but I love the reds and the pink bike.

I bike Budapest

Now that's what I call a hat.....  a lovely little film from our friends over at Cycle Chic Hungary

Omafiets for Everyone!

A little slice of Amsterdam has finally arrived in Marrickville thanks to those clever chaps at Glow Worm Bicycles.   They have expanded around the corner with a shop crammed full of more old Dutch bikes than you can poke a spoke at.

A veritable treasure trove of cool old used bicycles and great kids bikes too.  Forget the over-priced dull blue and pink kids bikes we're used to here and think rainbow coloured wheels of joy with mini version chain guards, back racks and yes skirt guards to impress your pint sized cycle chica.  Cycle Chic Kids indeed!

STOP PRESS - they now also hire bikes - BRILLIANT

Check out their bikes here

Early Evening

I've been seduced by the Vespa, I admit it.  Of course I still love all things bicycle but I'm enjoying my Roman Holiday fantasy just a little longer.

It certainly makes for a fun way to photograph people on bikes, Italian paparazzi style.....

A Rare Cycling Species

Ah yes, the chain smoking, coffee drinking, vintage bike riding citizen cyclist.... a rarely seen species often found skulking around theatres and street corners or inhaling espresso in urban inner city coffee shops.
They are known for their cool retro style and manic humour.

Weekend Chic on the Streets

Spring has finally sprung in Sydney and that means one thing - MORE BIKES !

Spotted Katherine (top) and Zahra (bottom) out and about in Darlinghurst at the weekend enjoying the sun.  Roll on Summer.

Chic Memories

We made so many of these handlebar ribbons for the WOOP Festival Cycle Chic Kids stall - and it wasn't just the kids that wanted them!
It always makes me smile when I see them still on bicycles months later.  Little flashes of colour on the streets.
