Could this be you, this weekend?

The sun’s out and there’s a vintage clothing bicycle ride in Cardiff this Sunday, starting at 2pm from the National Museum’s steps.

Lee is manager of the trainer (sneaker) shop ‘Size?’ in the city. Cycle chic took this as he waited for the shutters of the shop to open – and what a cool guy. Dressed in classic parka, skinny jeans and slick hair, Lee’s got great street style. What a dude!

Thank you…

Thank you to everyone that attended last night’s Welsh premier of ‘Bill Cunningham New York’. It was such a lovely night and we did it! A sell out performance in Chapter’s wonderfully luxurious, bright red, cinema #2. The night started with Cycle Chic’s show reel of images from the blog – about 40 in total … Read more

Lowri was taking in the rays yesterday in the Bay. With temperatures warmer than Barcelona, what better way to enjoy the weather than on a beautiful old bicycle. Bliss!  

Busy week ahead!

Flesh and the Swan

Merkley??? is a San Francisco based photographer of all that’s sexy and symmetrical. With an overtly saturated  palette, linked to the rise of Photoshop, he photographs the gorgeous, the cool and sometimes the bazaar. It’s not always for the faint hearted, so don’t look if you’re sensitive to nudity and flesh. But occasionally he breaks the symmetry … Read more

Tinoch

Tinoch’s the archetypal fixie rider. Wearing a steeply placed baseball hat, canvas rucsac, rolled up jeans and American-style heavy leather boots, he’s certainly not taking any compromises in what he wears to ride his plum-fruit coloured, fixed wheel, bicycle. Standing in front of a wall with graffiti saying “CARS KILL”, he’s not letting that get … Read more
