There’s nothing quite like taking a bike ride on a warm summer day (even if we are in the dead of winter still). Your hair’s down, the breeze feels cool against your skin, and you feel a lot more in order with your surroundings. Not only that, but it’s nostalgic.

Hello! It's good to be back. Technically I came back from maternity leave months ago. But I've been working on behind-the-scenes stuff like relaunching our best-selling Straw Hat Bike Helmet, updating the shop, and taking care of this little dude, of course.

Besides being the most efficient mode of transport on the planet, the humble bicycle is also a rich source of inspiration for textile artists. Conveying feelings of freedom and a romantic reference to an elegant past, it's no wonder that there are so many beautiful bike print dresses out there. Here is our selection of the very best.

The good news was that POPSUGAR sent me a surprise Must Have Box to review this month. The bad news is that my blogging platform hates me and deleted the entire review that I had just finished writing. (Apparently hitting "Save" causes the app to crash and your post to go up in flames?)

I am all about matching my outfits to my bike(s) to my helmet to my accessories. For me, my bike is just one part of my total look. It's how I express myself. That's why this giveaway from bike maker Pure Cycles and San Francisco-based bag company Timbuk2 is so great.
