We were very pleased to be asked by the Financial Times to pick our ideal kit bag for stylish cycling this Autumn. I know the less than clement weather can make you feel like leaving the bike at home but on a fresh crisp autumn day being out and about on your bike can be wonderful so why not get inspired....
