Other Cycling Nuts

Throwing your keys in a bowl is very late 1970's, but here at Apres Velo headquarters it's common practice and in between packing orders in the production temple and taking Crash Test Mummy to the emergency department (E.R) we like to party up with our friends. So support these bunch of cycling buddies, share the love, lube up and jump in the jelly pit. Maybe even visit their website and return the favour. It's all about love people, live the ride.

Amy Gillett Foundation

The Amy Gillett Foundation’s mission is to help reduce the incident rate of accidents between cyclists and motorists. In other words, to help keep us all safe on the road whether it’s on two wheels or four!

Why an Apres Velo Friend?

Apres Velo and the Amy Gillett Foundation have teamed up to create some great urban t-shirt concepts for men, women and kids that will help to spread the safety message in a thought provoking way!

By purchasing one of these soon to be released Tees you are not only buying a cool Apres Velo designed product but supporting the Amy Gillett Foundation’s messages. Apres Velo is proud to support the cause by passing a financial contribution from each t-shirt sold back to the Foundation.

And that’s not all as the Apres Velo wheel will continue to turn and churn out some other great Amy Gillett themed products in the coming months! Feel free to send us your ideas on what you’d like to see!

Love Velo - UK

If you love luxury and love cycling then you'll find Love Velo totally irresistible. Love Velo offers exclusive luxury cycling escapes to handpicked Mediterranean destinations throughout Europe. So what exactly is ‘luxury cycling'? Ermine trimmed saddles? Dom Perignon hydration packs? No, as Love Velo's mantra goes, "In luxury cycling, the ‘après cycle' is as important as the riding experience".

Which means, when they're not in the saddle, Love Velo riders are indulged in stunning villa accommodation with great swimming pools, jacuzzis, a masseuse & excellent cuisine & wines.
