Made: Invisible Bike Helmet




 If you bike around town as much as I do, you probably hate the helmet hair you encounter on a daly basis. Well, thanks to these two Swedish design ladies of Hovdig, you can let your head go helmet free. To get the full impact of this amazingly innovative design, you have to watch the video below.  The duo design team touch upon their design goals, inspiration, and briefly mention the challenges they encountered as female designers, which I love. The price of the product is a little steep at the moment but I hope it becomes a little more mainstream and affordable in the near future.

Interview with Eleanor's NYC




A couple weeks ago, I stopped by and chatted with owner, Alison Lucien, about my bike and business. While I was there, I picked up the cutest vintage bike crate which was originally an old tomato crate from Boston, MA. Oh, and just try to ignore my funny looking hair in this photo. This is what it turns into when it is extremely humid outside. :)
