Spring is here and we want to get out and get on our bikes, the idea of cycling to work on a sunny day sounds fantastic. It may or may not have something to do with shifting all that winter comfort food, but cycling has become a chic pursuit. The Sartorialist is well-known for his cycle love, documenting stylish riders the world around.
We’re still relying on hand-me-down pushbikes but if you really want to do cycling in style then you treat yourself to a bike from Bobbin, our favourite bicycle shop. Not only do they know their stuff but they do it with panache, and we love the little descriptions that accompany their products: ‘If this bike were food, it would be gelato in a sugar cone. ‘
The classic Pashley in pink is a must for all cycle princesses, or why not go for bright yellow, this season’s on-trend colour? It will look great with summer’s sandy neutrals to make sure you cycle in style!

Have you noticed how more and more people seem to have taken up cycling?
We love our bikes, not only are we keeping fit and getting from A to B, but we can also look stylish too. We are going for a retro Miss Marple meets Agyness Deyn look when we venture out on two wheels good and were overjoyed when we found Bobbin Bicycles. Not only do they sell the most amazing range of our favourite vintage style bikes, they also stock stylish helmets and accessories. Now there is no reason to look like we are delivering a parcel, when we arrive at work in the morning!
A new shop recently opened in Islington North London, but they also sell everything online.
