It’s All Cyclelogical (+ Giveaway!)

We know you love to ride your bicycle! As a matter of fact, we kind of think you want to show the world you love to ride your bicycle and would gladly write it across your forehead. But it’s even more fun to find a tee shirt that says it all for you. We love the super soft organic cotton shirts from Cyclelogical. We thought you might too–so check out the giveaway below!
Fashion with a Point
Each tee or hoody from Cyclelogical has a bicycle motif and a message. The ideas the tee shirts put across are the ecological benefits of cycling, the benefits to health and fitness, the idea that biking keeps gas consumption down, and how we can make the world a better place with a bike. The messages aren’t all serious; the designers had a bit of fun with them Some of the shirts have a reflective print for a little enhanced visibility. The comfortable soft feel of the shirts make them a wardrobe favorite. We are showing off the women’s tees, but Cyclelogical also has a great selection of mens’ tee shirts as well.
Product Review Note from Tara: I have had two tees from Cyclelogical for three years now. They are about the most comfortable items in my wardrobe and have worn well, so I still wear them!
Functional Gear for Commuters
Cyclelogical also makes great gear for the commuter. They sell functional commuting bags, messenger bags and even an “urban handbag” that clips onto the rear bike rack. The gear has plenty of reflective touches, is water-resistant, and offers great compartmental storage.

when my kids want a little treat from the store, we hop and and bike it!
Summer time brings a whole new meaning to the term ‘dinner cruise’ when we take our bikes out for a dinner date!
I am fairly new to this cycling thing so I don’t get out as much as I’d like, but I hope to use it more for things other than training rides this summer–maybe the drive for a steamer at Starbucks?
I bike to work, co-op and have been known to bike for a couple beers with friends. I am also training for my first duathlon.
I ride 25 miles to work 3 days a week. More when the weather is nicer/temps better here in SW Colorado. I cannot imagine my life with out bicycles.
I recently moved to a rural area and I love to ride to town to pick up this and that.
I tried exercising in my car, but it didn’t work out too well, so then I decided to try my bike – ahhh, that was the ticket. Not only could I ride from place to place, but I can make it harder or easier as needed. I love riding my bike for exercise plus I get to cruise past all the cars waiting in traffic.
I have started using my bike to go to the grocery store. I just got my first pannier so hopefully it will help lighten the load.
I use a bike to get around everywhere when I’m at the beach. Also, I love using one as a workout/stress reliever rather than driving to the store to go shopping or to a restaurant to eat!
I use my bike as a good excuse to go out to meals with friends and not worry about what we’re eating and drinking. I just can’t feel guilty about anything if I biked there! Plus, biking always puts me in a good mood, so I’m more laidback and relaxed in general (which makes me more fun to hang out with too).
I bike to my swim class at the local rec center.
I ride to do most of my errands and to my swim class on Saturday mornings.
I ride my bike most everywhere or I walk. It gets really interesting packing large items I buy on a whim….just call me packy!
Now that my kids are older, our bikes are the primary mode of transportation in the summer at the lake. It’s officially “on” as soon as we have the helmets in place…who can get to the dock the fastest! No more worry about finding a parking spot for the family bus!
I just started riding again after a 20 year hiatus. I LOVE my bike and am planning on trying to take my daughters to school. I’ll be using the spring and summer to train (as well as potty train the little one) and amass gear. I’ll need some way to transport the – soon-to-be 4 year old as well as the 7 year old and weather appropriate clothing. Oh yeah and the stamina to ride the whole way uphill.
For the last three years my husband and I have been bike commuting to save money and reduce our auto dependence. Besides pedaling to work we bike to restaurants and wine bars, for grocery shopping, to the movie theater. When we go on vacation, I take my folding bike and my husband rents a bike so we don’t have to rent a car. Using a bike to get around is a great option to have at a time of when most people want to find ways to economize – and it’s so enjoyable that, rather than feeling like we are enduring a sacrifice, we feel like we’ve gained something that adds to our quality of life.
I use my bike to get around campus. It saves me so much time when I bike to class in the morning. I really appreciate the extra sleep too
I take my deliveries to the post office, so I use a wide front rack/basket type (Gamoh). Sometimes I have to load up the front and the rear rack + use panniers. It is a point of pride and a challenge that I relish.
As a family, we get around most places with me carting all our stuff and my partner carting our 2 small boys on our custom triple decker bike.
Biking has become than a mode of transportation, it is a part of my lifestyle! I bike to Westminster College every day i have class or work, 5 days a week, rain or shine. I did not get a parking pass at Westminster this year because i wanted to prove to myself that I can bike no matter what. It worked, i have to get to school and i can’t drive, so i bike. It’s great because not only is it great to get outside before class everyday, it is also faster than driving my car, which requires waiting at lights, waiting in traffic and trying to find a parking spot! I love biking!
I recently bought a trek 7.6 fx with clip in pedals (now my baby!). It is sitting in the living room on the trainer waiting for me to be able to ride again. I just had a hysterectomy and cannot ride for at least four weeks! I’m traumatized not able to ride!
. Once I’m healed I plan to make the most of it by driving my 5 yr old (zoey) to school, then riding from her school to work everyday (roughly 6 miles round trip).
I ride for the benefit of exercise and improving my health – working on ‘me’ time while on my bike. Been thru Chemo and radiation and ‘bike-time’ helped me get through all the treatments. Looking forward to my first century ride this summer!!!
I ride the commuteride vanpool to work 27 miles with my bike on the bike rack and then ride home after work. After a stressful day at work, its a great workout and gives me something to look forward to at the end of the day. Taking different routes home always makes the trip an adventure. I’m also hoping to lose about 20-30 pounds before the summer is over, and say good-bye to high blood pressure.
Hi! Nice giveaway. I bike to connect with my five year old son and to reduce carbon footprint. We ride the trails, have picnics and get excited about bikes, bike stuff and adventures. We ride the bike to the store instead of taking the car, etc. It’s very bonding, and he knows that what is good for the earth is fun and good for us!

Eco Mama
I ride my bike to run errands around town. I am also planning to participate in my bike club’s Bike to Work Month in May. Going to see if I can take on the commitment of being a long-term commuter. We’ll see!
I dream of our family of six using our bikes often to go the local farmers market.
I ride my bike to work 2 times a week, it really clears my mind after a long day.
I will ride my bike to work during the Spring and Summer months several times a week.
I have 19 miles to bike to work on cty roads, 3 times a week. It would be perfect if it would stop snowing now!
