Dazzy Cycle

Blog reader Lisa Milano sent us the last splash of summer colours in Brussels. We love it, and we also love the way she named the photo ‘Dazzycycle’ – we don’t know what it means, but it sounds happy.

Thank you Lisa!

The fabulous girl of summer

Blog reader Thomas Baert sent us a couple of photographs of what a perfect summer evening looks like in our book. Starring the unknown girl who we from now on will call ‘The fabulous girl of summer’.

These also confirm the trend we spotted a while ago: groovy girls on vintage race bikes. Wonder why girls have a thing for them. If anyone wants to share some info on the subject, let us know at info@cyclechic.be.

And if you, like Thomas did, want to share some summer pictures with us, you can simply use the same e-mail address!

Great view

Spectacular view over Bxl-center, on top of the Mont Des Arts. Especially by bike, you can take the time to enjoy it… and spot fellow cyclists, as did Thorfinn who sent us this photo.

Special thought to the cyclist coming up the hill! It is a big and a long one indeed – but you made it! You really are a hero, even the bus thinks so.

Into the fog…

Thank you Fanny and Marie for this foggy, mysterious photo. As a soundtrack to it, we recommend Agnes Obel.

We want your panda portraits!

Leen Creve, who wrote the brilliant interview with Mikael from Copenhagen (see post below) pointed us to the phenoma of the panda portrait.

What you do is you take a photo of yourself while riding a bike. Like this:

You can find a ton of ‘em in this flickr group. And yes, you guessed it: we want yours! Do a panda portrait of yourself – and be careful while doing so! – and send it to us via info[a]cyclechic.be. We’ll post them here, on the blog!

More reader’s pics!

Did we mention how we love getting photos from our readers? In case we didn’t: we LOVE getting photos from readers! Like this one from François Henrard, who took the shot in Elsene – or Ixelles, for or French speaking audience – in Brussels. Thank you very much François! And everybody, keep ‘em coming at info@cyclechic.be.
