    Hi, there's a bloke who works at the bike shop on Hackney rd who is selling a white Raleigh frame about the right size though not a women's frame but the right size. Also a girl working at Brick Lane Bikes who's thinking of selling her ladies Peugeot frame. I would recommend the two old blokes on Brick Lane market, I picked up an '60s Carlton frame in great nick from there for £60. They often have great ladies bikes and they're not stolen.

    ...and if you check the "Names to Faces" thread you'll see that we don't know much about style either.[/quote]

    I disagree - some great poser looks! (Shame about the bikes)

    Apparently, the proportion of cyclists that are female is 40%+. I see loads of women on the roads in London. There must be girls on the forum! What do you all talk about that puts them off? If you know any girls who cycle - seriously or otherwise - could you ask them to get in touch?

    Hi, I'm a design student at London College of Fashion. I have been cycling in London for 7+ years now and have always been frustrated with the clothing available to women - either it's too girlie, too impractical or too sporty/masculine. So I've decided to base my final collection on clothing for female cyclists. I don't mean high performance gear - rather commuter gear that is both functional, comfortable, intelligent, adaptable and looks good so can be worn on the road and at work. I have a questionnaire which I'd appreciate your feedback on - if you have a minute, please contact me at vanessasmuts@gmail.com and I'll send it over. Thanks in advance!
