Break the Cycle
Nona Varnado Activewear

The fare hike imminent, you resolved to cycle more (but snow put the brakes on that plan).

Enticing us to climb back on our trusty steed is Nona Varnado’s line of functional and fashionable biking gear.

Varnado, former pro cyclist and feminist, employs details that combine practicality with curve enhancement: copper-zippered derriere pockets play up what your mama gave you; an oversize collar lends face-framing drama (and wind and rain protection) to an eye-popping fuchsia wool jacket.

Two made-to-order gems: a cross-check tweed Sherlock-about-town riding cape with a cinched waist that traps warm air and the Champagne Proof jacket (a necessity for 50 Cent groupies and pro racers).

Prefer couture? Varnado takes custom orders and will even create a slew of jerseys if you and your crew are up for a race — or pub crawl.

Available at Bicycle Habitat, 244 Lafayette Street, between Prince and Spring Streets (212-431-3315); online at nonavarnado.com, $25-$375.

With Bike Month NYC just around the corner there’s a ton of things to look forward to:

Style Ride NYC, the long awaited New York version of the super fun event we did in San Francisco last fall with Pushbike SF. Right now we’re looking for new retail relationships before announcing details (soon!)

It’s not a race and it’s up to you what you want to wear or the bike you want to ride. With Prizes!

Here are the categories:

  • Most (male & female) Fashionable Cyclist
  • Best Clothing & Bike combo
  • Most Stylish Couple
  • Best Accessorized

plus we usually make up some categories when people show up in completely amazing costumes, riding insanely adorable bikes with everything from kids to pets along for the ride.

Enjoy a leisurely and stylish ride through town with a small after party and awards.
