Inspired by the original Copenhagen Cycle Chic, it was finally time that Manchester had its own Cycle Chic blog for students. Cycle Chic is, at its heart, a street style blog where the accessory is the bicycle. Manchester is brimming with stylish students across its four great universities - we just want to capture the everyday looks and thoughts of students cycling into university.
We're looking for students interested in keeping this blog afloat - anyone with an interest in photography and/or blogging - get in touch! As our streets are not yet crowded with cycling commuters, it's not that easy to come by some great shots - so we're always on the lookout for 'models'. But if you know someone that you think should be featured, drop us a message.
For now, take a look at some of last years pictures (and we apologise for the triple-filtered Instagrams...)
This was taken from the 2014 Space for Cycling campaign -MCR.
A shower cap inspired bike seat cover from Holland.
Bicycle basket full of fruit and vegetables from the fruit n' veg stall in Owens Park square (every Wednesdays from 12pm onwards). This cost just under a tenner!
Tip: Don't leave it til 3pm if ya want to buy cheap avocados!
Picture from last year's Bike Fest. This year it will be on the 11th February'15 in the SU forum - come get your well earned free breakfast! Free security tagging and discounted D-locks will also be on offer - see full events here. There's also going to be a bike sale - so encourage your friends to take a look!
Colourful wheels from the Platt Field Bike Hub (you guessed it, in Platt Field's Park) -Keep updated about their opening times here.
Thanks for looking - and we hope to keep posting every week! Again, we hope you can support us by getting involved. Keep updated by liking our Get On Your Bike Facebook Page.
Safe Cycling!
