For at least 2,000 years, the region once known as Persia remained an important source of turquoise which was named by Iranians initially “pirouzeh” meaning “victory” and later after Arab invasion “firouzeh”. In Iranian architecture, the turquoise was used to cover the domes of the Iranian palaces, and because of its intense blue colour it was a symbol of heaven on earth.
An apt colour for a bicycle then, we think.
Riding sky high.

After a surprising and very disappointing lack of Cycle Chic on Melbourne’s fashion strip, Chapel Street, pro-photographer in residence, Jac Price, found that only a few weeks later the citizens of Windsor were making a Cycle Chic come back. Phew! Our faith in the south side is restored.
Too cool for skool, never too cool for riding bicycles.

Melbourne Cycle Chic would like to thank the Victoria Police Bicycle Squad for looking suitably sexy in their very smart uniforms, smart enough to make the cut on Melbourne Cycle Chic. We caught the VPBS at Ride to Work day.
These guys have all the gadgets. Their bikes are like a 007 BMW.

The red bike is a nice touch with the navy blue and lumi yellow.

There is something about men in uniforms that is just so…chic.
Melbourne Cycle Chic photographer in residence, Jac Price, went on a photo tour in one of Melbourne’s trendiest locations, Chapel Street. In her own words this is what she found – “I like the way that practical and comfortable has carved it’s way into fashion, and in this case right down the center of Melbourne’s fashion suburb!
Simple, but sassy.

Nothing chic here, but we like his look anyway.

One happy bicycle babe!
Red is for racing, romance and radical, all of which apply to bicycling.
A touch of red goes a long way.

Hard and fast?

Indeed, it seems that red bicycle is only hard, not fast

Wedge boots make for the perfect bicycle heel: solid support that looks seriously sassy.

The Bike In My Life photographer ace, Pierre Curry, pulls the trigger on some great boot street fashion.
These boots were made for biking
One rockin pair of red boots.
Great boots, but that is one totally cool green leather jacket too.

“I quite like being on the Canning Street bike path, especially when all the Lycra-clad office workers ride past. When summer comes they all spin past you and there’s all this bravado, and I think where have they been all winter when it’s cold.” – Neisha.The photos in this Treadlie Street blog series were taken for the new urban cycling mag Treadlie. Some images get into the mag and some don’t. We’ve loaded them all so you get to see all the people who generously got off their bicycles and gave up a their time to be interviewed for a good cause. The Bike In My Life thanks them.
