We were delighted to be invited to Sunset Magazine’s free-wheeling picnic in their May 2010 issue.

Sunset Magazine is a leading US lifestyle publication with nearly 5 million dedicated readers, focusing on the essential elements of achieving West coast style. It’s a premier resource and how-to guide of the very best style, products, travel, food & drink etc. that celebrates the West coast’s healthy, luxurious, inspiring (and achievable) way of life.

On offer was a selection of beautifully delicious, gourmet treats – a yummy medley of food and Velorbis bicycles.

Sunset Magazine provided the refreshments; Velorbis provided the elegant wheels in the form of our ever-popular Dannebrog red ladies bicycle (like strawberries and cream), and Scrap Deluxe gents bike with signature balloon tyres.

The editorial shows that organising a romantic picnic setting with friends or loved ones, preparing mouth-watering recipes, and arriving in ultimate cycle chic style; is as easy as 'a walk (or cycle) in the park.'

We’re delighted to see our beautiful Studine Balloon ladies bicycle selected as a gorgeous wedding gift in Wedding Ideas – a best-selling UK magazine dedicated to creating the most unforgettable day.

The delicate colour scheme of Studine Balloon – hint of vanilla styled with caramel balloon tyres – complements the most blushing of brides. Velorbis has always believed that cycling is a perfect romantic activity for couples, especially newlyweds. What better wedding gift to start a life journey together on.

As our friends at Wedding Ideas say: "Equipped with a cute little bell, a basket for your bubbly and chocolate-dipped strawberries, (and with new gorgeous designs for hubby, too), pack up and take a trip down lovers’ lane…"

Thanks to our friends at Velo Cast for this great review of our Velorbis Mobii trike, following a test ride around Scotland.

"Heads do turn, and they follow you as you glide past; expressions of intrigue and amusement drawn in equal measure. As you park it up on the high street, brave members of the general public will take the opportunity to ask; "What is it?", "Where does it come from?" and, most interestingly, "Where can I get one?"

Velo Cast hit on the fundamental element of the Mobii tricycle concept. Velorbis Mobii isn’t simply a replacement for a bicycle; it should be equated on the same lines as a small car in terms of functionality, purpose and cost - a real carbon conscious alternative for fun family transport or handy cargo deliveries.

Scott from Velo Cast says:  "The Velorbis Mobii is tailor made for those people that genuinely want to ‘walk-the-eco-walk’ (or should that be pedal?!)...Be radical; drive a Mobii."

We're delighted to see this fabulous article by Gear Patrol about our custom built Leikier gents bike.

Gear Patrol is an independently published online journal cited as: 'The definitive resource for the ever-evolving man.' Its Beauty On Two Wheels article by Ben Bowers talks about how the Velorbis Leikier bike was born from the collaboration with Danish designer and blacksmith, Lars Leikier, and inspired by 1950’s motorcycle designs.

"Some things are built to be practical. Other things are meant to simply stun onlookers by the sheer aesthetic awesomeness of their design." Coming from a site authored and followed by 'aspirational and discriminating men with a unique understanding of value, luxury, and singularity', this is true praise indeed.

We spotted this great review of our iconic stunner - Scrap Deluxe ladies bicycle - by Let’s Go Ride a Bike, as part of their ‘Beautiful Bicycles’ series.

Let’s Go Ride a Bike is a fabulous US blog that spreads the pure love of cycling and beautiful design. They believe that life on two wheels should be: “Simple. Stylish. Fun.” We couldn’t agree more!

Dottie from Let’s Go Ride a Bike takes our beautiful Scrap Deluxe ladies bicycle for a spin around the chic streets of Chicago, commenting that “riding this bicycle is sure to get you noticed.” Read the Let’s Go Ride a Bike review of Scrap Deluxe in full, and also see other articles from this fun and inspiring blog.
