Rebecca is a customer of ours who recently appeared on BBC3's free speech to talk about safe cycling and looking good in the saddle. She's not backwards in coming forward when it comes to championing stylish cycling and looks striking both on and off her bike. She instantly sprang to mind for our Hot in a Helmet photo shoot and definitely proved that safe can be sexy.
Profession:
Singer/songwriter,
Actress, Mental Health Awareness Campaigner
What
bike so you ride?
I
ride a Belgian made Dutch style bike. I love attaching my colourful 'Kitsch
Kitchen' panniers - they're amazing both for visibility on the road and for
storage.
How
you feel about wearing a helmet?
A
helmet is essential for my safety and my sense of security on the road. I know
that I'm always protected - there's no denying that we cyclists are incredibly
vulnerable on the road, so I feel safest when wearing my helmet.
I
choose a helmet that no matter whether I feel I look great or worse for wear,
my helmet looks bangin! I am
totally in love with my Gold Bobbin Helmet teamed with bright red lipstick –
it’s a winning look! You'd be surprised, a helmet can actually help shape your
hair and shield the hard work you've done styling it from strong winds.Rebecca wears Sawako Furuno Leopard helmet, £84 and Bobbin Gold helmet £35... and she doesn't half wear them well ; )
