This is an oldie but was very much me this morning…
Contest Winners
Last month we were running a bike jersey raffle on Instagram and then decided to offer the same raffle to people that visited us at the Philly Bike Expo.
I’d like to congratulate @bikesbikesbaby and Kevin Lau. They’ve both won their very own Sunflowers jersey. Thanks for taking part.
Remember, those of you not lucky enough to win, you can pick up your own jersey at www.justeleanor.com/shop

Yellow Fever in July
Get ready for the start of the Tour de France on July 5th. Just in time we’ve got our new Le Tournesol T-shirt design for sale at Apres Velo. The French translation for sunflower seems like an appropriate pun for the race leader’s maillot jaune. This latest design is a collage of this year’s tour where we’ll see riders traversing cobbled roads, picturesque vineyards, winding mountain climbs, and finally the Arc d’Triomphe in Paris. Available in men’s and women’s sizes.

Trophy Bikes Identity
Recently, Eleanor and I did a new identity/rebranding for Trophy Bikes. Trophy is a local Philadelphia bike shop that’s felt like family to me for going on 9+ years. They sell and service bicycles with a speciality in practical, affordable, and fun transportation for commuters and cyclo-tourists. After working closely with manager, Andrew Susser, and staff we’ve come up with something that we’re all really proud of. There’s been a soft rollout of the logo right now on the web and various social medias, but I hope to do a proper post once we’ve implemented more practical items. Thanks to Trophy for being such a pleasure to work with!
