Cycling is back in fashion. Whether it’s on a Boris bike or on a vintage cycle people are taking to the green way of travelling once more. For all those environmentally friendly fashionistas out there, the team from Fashshot have put together some outfits for cyclists to rock. Luke from Fashshot chats to presenter Chris about [...]

I took part in my first Catford Cycling Club Hill Climb on Sunday. What a fantastic and awesome vibe! Here’s some background and pictures from the day. I recommend entering it, it’s not as bad as everyone makes it out to be…it’s an awesome buzz and the anticipation of waiting in line at the start [...]

Guess those legs – Haha. This is quite classic. “Let’s face it, as cyclists we’re all a little strange with the way we’re always checking out each others legs.  The appearance of someone’s legs can be an intimidating yet deceiving sign of a rider’s form.” (cyclingtips) Why do police target cyclists who jump red lights?
