Sunday pause
Doing two things at once can be a little tricky sometimes, especially on two wheels and in this windy, cold weather…so it’s never a bad idea to just pull on over to take a pause. Especially on a Sunday. Slow down and take it easy!

Cycle chic-in-training

Isn’t this the sweetest?! Daddy and daughter, hand on shoulder…and a cute little orange flag.
Now there’s a chic cyclist-in-training!

Blonde Sunday
Who doesn’t like a blonde on a bike? Nice flowing hair. Great upright posture. Can’t go wrong.

OV chic
Heels, tights, and sub-zero weather–a great combination. This girl proves that you can still be chic on the OV Fiets.
But really, Amsterdam, who’s ready for spring?! I know I am.

Cruising Sunday
Well hey there pretty lady! She’s got her matching gloves and beanie, and just cruising along on her Old Dutch, carrying some things in her basket and listening to music. This freezing weather isn’t wearing her down at all…it’s almost making her smile!
What made you smile today?

No hands Sunday
Do you ride with no hands? Ever since I fell off my bike last July because I tried to ride without hands, I’ve been too scared to do it again. This chick makes it look so easy!

Sunday Snuggle
Snowy days are perfect for snuggling up to your loved one. Even on a bike! ♥

Mohawks ride faster
There’s so much going on here. First of all, the mohawk. (No, it wasn’t just the wind). Awesome! Then the Louis bag. Classy. Bright blue jeans? Totally hot. Old school Nike’s. Yes, love it. Slick wheels–obvi. Should I expect anything less in the 9 Streets?!
I don’t think so.

Flirty Sunday
Flirt tip #17: Get a cute dog. And like a good-sized one (nothing against little dogs!). Put him in your bike basket. Roll up to cute blondes. Make them smile.
Now that’s a flirty Sunday.

Prowling Sunday

Aude is right! More fur is just what doctor ordered for these chilly winter days. I’m seeing so much fur around the city, aren’t you? Fur hoods, fur hats, fur scarves, fur mitts, fur boots–it’s everywhere! But it’s best worn by bike.
Meredith
All in fur
Being cool while remaining warm is possible thanks to the perfect combination of fur coat and scarf!
Romantic Sunday

I love how cycling is a social thing in this city. And what can be more romantic than cycling along side your honey. This stylish duo sets a high standard for riding side-by-side. Lovely.

Just another rainy day

What happened to all the snow?! I was just getting used to the slip n’ slide riding on the snowy streets. Nevertheless, the terrible wind and rain didn’t stop any Amsterdammers today. It’s almost like nothing can stop these people from riding their bikes!
by Meredith
Snow bunny days
I love this part of the winter, when the snow is frozen in your chains; stuck to the fender; caked on the rims. But I’m so thankful for the little fietspad snow plow that helps us stay cycling chic. Like, super sheeeeek.
By the way, cycle on over to Rotterdam’s IFFR, the best film fest in the world. I just got my tickets–first show is at 9h30 on 2 feb. Come on down, Amsterdammers!

White january
The cold and white feeling we missed for Xmas is in town since a week, Amsterdammers love it and keep on cycling very chic!
Sunny Sunday

I saw so many people with sunglasses on today, like this cutie pie. Love it.
Did anyone else get a suntan today? I turned up the heat and sat near my closed window (with a bikini and sunglasses!) and relished the sun this morning. I don’t care if it’s -10, if it’s sunny I’m a happy camper.

Winter sales
Little smile but large shopping bag, this girl is cycling back from town with just the ingredients you need to begin the week-eeeeeeend!
Pink Sunday
Two’s a company, but three’s never a crowd in my book! Especially if it involves parkas and pink bikes. Do you think it was planned?
Any new year’s resolutions out there? I’m still deciding between “learn Dutch” and “watch 80 movies from the 80s.” Tough choice. But in the meantime, what a fabulous winter day today. Or is this winter? The sun and 10-degree weather confuses my winter hibernation mode. Maybe the Dutch weather made a new year’s resolution: be more sunny and cheerful!
by Meredith
Seriously stylish
Most people in Amsterdam are stylish: green parka for him, red lipstick for her. So it goes for these hipsters and they seem to be quite serious about their looks!
Must be a good book
I guess some people are really happy with their Christmas presents! Look at her, she is reading her book on the back of a bike, I just had the time to read the title: “Congo“. Now I know which book I will ask next time I receive a present..
Merry Christmas!

It’s never too late to go out there on your bike and get back home with the last tree from the very friendly Californian Christmas-tree-man located on Marie Heinekenplein.
Season greetings, the ACC Team.
Panthers in town

Maybe not as common as the green parka, but still the panther coat is quite popular this winter.
So don’t be afraid if you feel surrounded by them.. You are not a prey, although?!
