Rocket Fuel - vintage cycling style

It's that time again, new styles have been added in most of the cap categories so no matter if your shivering with cold in the southern hemisphere or lapping up the sun in the northern hemisphere we've got you covered from wools to cottons.
As always all our caps are one of a kind so get in fast before someone else beats you to it.

SheSpoke is a women's cycle wear company dedicated to meeting the needs of women cyclists. SheSpoke produces premium cycling wear which delivers comfort, performance and style.

Style they certainly do have and now they also stock a limited range of Rocket Fuel caps. So why not head over now and pick yourself up some performance wear and a cap?

The very chic Nicole of Circa Vintage has just added a post to her blog about the Sydney Tweed Ride. She is hoping it inspires Melbourne to have one of their very own, I hope so too. Was such a fabulous day I want everyone to be able to be out enjoying their cycling and looking oh so stylish!

This came into my inbox today and was so nice I'm sharing it with you all, Thanks Ty.

If your looking to go to Canberra and want to know about the roads in and about and places to go start with a look at Ty's blog, covers lots of the highlights around the the Capital to explore by bike.

I have been cleaning the studio all morning and came across these cards that I picked up on a recent trip to Hobart.
The tricycle cafe and bar in Salamanca Place was super cute and had a cool selection of old trikes hanging about.
The other 2 cards are just random freebies, one advertising an artist who thought people with animal heads on bikes was 'cool' with the last one showing a kid with a budgie on his head which was too awesome to leave behind.

Drum Roll please.......

Rocket Fuel has a Melbourne stockist! That's right folks a genuine bricks and mortar shop you can go visit and purchase a selection of our highly coveted cycling caps.

Get in quick because you know Melbourne has an eye for fashion and as always you'll want to be ahead of the curve when it comes to style.

The wonderful Sydney Tweed Ride just keeps giving. It was a fantastic day out and now photos keep popping up from all over!

For a comprehensive look check out the Flickr: Sydney Tweed Ride and see all the fun and frivolity of the day.

Including this gem of me holding up my bustle before I get onto my bike (photo credit to niftydandy) complete with matching bag,helmet and heels!

I'm now entering my second week of having a cold, combined with some not so great weather I've been off my bike for a bit (have managed to fit in a few trips to the shops or post office on the BMX but that's about it).
Which has got me to thinking how it must bite if you've got to be off for awhile be it sickness, work, weather whatever the reason. Then last Friday we went and saw The way Bobby sees it and now I'm feeling I should just suck it up and get back on the bike.
So if you're suffering from lack of inspiration today check out Bobby and realise he's hardcore and you're just all marshmallow.

The Bike Blog Book is the blog of Vanguard who make some really nice limited edition bicycles and they added a post on our Sydney Tweed Ride, why not take a look at the post here and at their main site here.
