Cruisin' in the big smoke

Bicycles are just right for getting somewhere but still taking part in city life

Desperate, or what?!



I'm not quite sure if the owner of this car is a serious lawn bowling fan or just pretending to be environmentally friendly ... the term 'a wolf in sheep's clothing' comes to mind!


No need to pretend ... just get one of these!

Simply squeezed

No wonder this guy is looking carefully at the truck ... it says 'Simply squeezed' on the side!!

You never forget ... well how to ride a bike, at least!!

My Dad is visiting us from England at the moment ... 

so I lent him my bike

He's a mature gentleman (80ish - but the exact details are a well kept secret!) but he rode like a man who has spent a fair few hours in the saddle


In my book, this is pretty damn CHIC!

Hot? It's cool at the Viaduct!

This bike caught my eye in the Viaduct the other day ... what a beauty!


I hadn't actually seen one in the wild before ...


...only in the shop (Cyco) in Ponsonby


I also spotted this very stylish urbanite, rocking a hat and sunnies


and her son (?) who was really 'owning' some mirror shades ... what he really needs, of course, to finish the look is a T-shirt with a bicycle on it!

Good find!

I spotted these baskets at Trade Aid in High Street the other day - they look suspiciously like really nice bicycle baskets for your handlebars. 

You'll need to add a couple of leather straps but they definitely have potential me thinks!!

Ahead of the crowd

Sometimes, there is just a certain something that puts a girl ahead of the rest!
