Schmoozing in San Francisco



I had the pleasure meeting up with the lovely Shelly Shroeder of Riding pretty yesterday. She showed me around her favourite city haunts and took me for lunch in cycle-friendly area of Valencia. We chatted about the similarities and differences of our cycling cultures the rise of the Cycle Chic movement. I am a huge fan of Shelly's blog and regularly consult in for my fix of stateside Cycle Chic.
We also met, Meryl, along the way who had decided after a lunchtime glass of wine that her pink cycling helmet was the ultimate accessory both on and off the bike. We whole-heartedly agreed!

Some people have all the fun!
Hope you took shed loads of pics to share with us, and had a great trip.

That pink helmet is pretty outrageous, I love it just for it's audacity.

Hi Hoosier Mama! You can buy the Cranberry Muse from us and we can ship to the US. I don't think there are any stockists of the cranberry in the US though I'm afraid. Email us at sales@cyclechic.co.uk and we can take an order from you

Good stuff from SF! The bike community here in Phoenix appears to be growing - I think in large part to our new light rail system. More people are using their bikes in connection with the system to get out and explore the city.
