The NYC helmet was commission by the City of New York from San Francisco-based Yves Behar / fuseproject.
The helmet has two components – a protective polystyrene inner shell and a separate soft fabric outer cover with straps and velcro flaps for keeping the wind/snow/sun off your neck. Commando style riding!

Designed by furniture designer Matt Eltonand graphic designer Matteo Baldarelli, the MAMA bike rack is simple yet functional.
It has two smooth hooks for you to hang your bike on, three holes where locks and cables can be looped through and secured and a small shelf for putting your wallet, keys, phone.
The MAMA bike rack is available for purchase from Matt Elton for 49.50 GBP.
The Bike Valet by Reclamation Art & Furniture is a geometric wall-mounted bike rack intended for particularly tight urban spaces.
The perches are crafted by laser-cutting steel and bending it by hand and then powder coated for a durable long-lasting finish in a variety of colours. There are also two types of padding for customised decor coordination.
You can buy the Bike Valet on Etsy or support the increased production of The Bike Valet through Kickstarter.
This is one of the cutest bike racks we’ve ever seen!

I confess, I am a bit of an evangelist when it comes to Kitsch Kitchen panniers.
I used to carry my gear on my back, in a boring black backpack from a camping store. But as my loads got heavier and heavier and I started getting back pain, I thought it was time to finally use panniers.
Panniers have transformed my life. Seriously. Such that when I got my new bike the first thing I did when I got it was take it to Cecil Walker and get a back rack installed for another set of Kitsch Kitchen panniers.
Why do I love them so much?
1. They brighten up my bike. As you can see, I own a very utilitarian Diamondback hybrid which is a fantastic ride but frankly a little dull for my aesthetics. The panniers come in a range of bright colours and patterns.
2. They are secure on the bike. The panniers fit on a back rack with 4 looped straps and 2 velcro straps. Once they’re on, they’re on! I haven’t had any problem with theft – a thief would have to spend a good five minutes fiddling with the back rack before they’d be able to get them off. Looks very suspicious 
3. They are waterproof and if they get dirty a quick wipe cleans the dirt off the oilcloth.
4. They help me carry large loads. The panniers (combined with the wicker basket) carry books, laptops, cameras, clothing and shopping. I can also strap items to the back rack, on top of the panniers, using a $2 bungee cord.
5. No more back pain and sweaty backs!
Tangled Journeys is a day celebrating the art of decorating your ride with yarn. Whether it is practical pieces, like skirt guards, saddle covers, maybe even handlebar bags, to frivolous fun with tassles, pom poms and tube covers. It could even be items to wear!
There will be examples to see, a kick-start with a crochet expert setting people off on their first project, patterns, yarn and the Taco Truck.
Some of our lovely crafty products will be on display and on sale on the day, including our crochet skirt guards, snoods and trouser cuffs.
See you this Sunday from 10-4pm!
