Po Campo’s innovative Armitage Rack Satchel is a bag that we normally advise our customers to attach onto their bike’s back rack.

Until we saw this photo, we’d not considered the fact that it can also be attached to your front handlebars depending on the width and height of the bars. The bag looks sleek and stylish on this ladies step-through.
We like the outfit too – short mini dress, loopy scarf, sleep jacket and ribbed wool tights with awesome red cowboy boots!

We really like the mustard coloured jacket worn by this chic cyclist. The cosy colour keeps the wind out and the trenchcoat style provides easy movement for the up-down pedalling motion. Team it with a slouchy bag, casual top knot, opaque tights and flats and you’re ready for work, school or the bar.

Love this transeasonal cycle chic outfit snapped by the Seine – a 3/4 length sleeve dress in an unexpectedly rugged fabric, elegant and practical leather gloves and a neat cross-body pouch by Louis Vuitton. Tres tres chic!

We are currently in love with the lunches made by Hello Aubergine, a vegetarian bicycle delivery service run by Pippa Macdonald that delivers once a week in the Fitzroy and Collingwood area.

Pippa designs the menu weekly, prepares the food and delivers the orders on her vintage bike, her wicker baskets laden with containers offering a vegetarian sandwich or a salad option.

We’re tried black bean burgers with avocado and mango salsa and coconut rice salad with lychee, cashews, mint and coriander and love the creativity and convenience of Hello Aubergine. Plus of course we love that Pippa runs her business by bike looking very cycle chic!


Hello Aubergine delivers vegetarian lunches in the Fitzroy and Collingwood area on Thursdays. Lunch orders must be placed by 10am on Wednesdays. Call 0432 607 559 or email orders@helloaubergine.com.

This lady rocks primary colours with her bike and her outfit – red, yellow, blue. What’s even cooler is that we’ve spotted her red Kronan bike parked in our neighbourhood before! Now we know the owner is equally stylish.

Nina certainly turned a few heads when she cycled from Thornbury to the Melbourne CBD with her bike garlanded with flowers. Cycle chic indeed!


She has four different bells and hooters on her handlebars as “people are more likely to get out of the way if they think there’s four bikes coming instead of just one bike!”

Nina completes her eye-catching ensemble with a suede horse-riding helmet. Not technically Australian standard compliant but very stylish.
