The Cycling Gentleman follows the trend of sites like Chic Cyclist, Copenhagen Cycle Chic, and Urban Cycle Chic in presenting and advocating everyday bicycle fashion. Unlike these sites, which tend to focus primarily on female cyclists, The Cycling Gentleman presents cycling style strictly from a gentleman’s perspective. Why only gentleman? Frankly, we need the most help! In addition to combing the interwebs for examples of stylish modern-day Cycling Gentlemen, I will also be posting material from the cycling past to inspire and inform.
The Cycling Gentleman emphasizes quality over quantity, so you will not see a post here every day, but rather periodic postings that are not only enjoyable and interesting, but well-crafted and content-rich as well. Enjoy!
