Apres Velo Blog

Finally, after hours of glueing, stitching & patching..... 20 Apres Velo Directors Chairs are finished. Each chair has my DNA imprinted into the fabric...I cannot tell you how many times I sewed my fingers (I'm not good at maths or counting beyond 10 'cause that's all my digits) when trying to sew the tyres and tubes onto the canvas.
I used up most of the tee shirt strike-offs and also have to thank Bike Addiction for the extra tyres, tubes & puncture patches( James looks at me like I'm a weirdo when I buy all his patches and i like the ones with orange rubber around the edges -don't you?).
So, here they are, ready to send to the Women's Honda/Lotto Team in Yooorope to rest up on, apres racing/riding. Go girls.
They deserve to have the coolest, funkiest Chairs to sit on.






At the very end is a back view of one of the chairs -each chair is of course completely different.
