Delighted to receive these fantastic images of Daniel, a former ‘helmet-resister’ in Vashon, Seattle whose team at bought him our Tweed cap style helmet at a gala event auction under the premise that he must wear it in perpetuity!!!

We think it suits him wonderfully!

(It’s also made us really want to visit Vashon island. It looks beautiful!)

It’s almost the brilliant , the sartorially superlative vintage cycle ride through the streets of London and we LOVE this gorgeous illustration promoting this years ride.

The event, on Saturday 18th April is always an incredible experience with warmth and community at its heart.

And if safety is as important to you as your (tweed) suiting, our collection of helmets fit the bill superbly.

We couldn’t agree more!

Scientists have studied it, riders swear by it, and the truth is: riding a bike really does boost happiness. Here are 10 reasons why.

'We Are Cyclists' follows the growth of All Bodies on Bikes—a grassroots movement that has evolved into a national nonprofit with chapters across the United States.

This is where running a small family business really comes into its own. Grab the dog on a Sunday, rope in the (only slightly unwilling) grown-up kids, and cycle everyone into our extraordinarily pretty local village for an impromptu photo shoot.

Proof, if it were needed, that BEG’s classic collection of cycle helmets are actually pretty damn cool — the kind people are happy to wear, not desperate to whip off the moment they dismount.

Have a look at the collection and see for yourself. This is where sad old plastic helmets are a thing of the past, and where comfort, design and serious style credentials quietly take the lead.
