September 28, 2020 rebecca
A short article I wrote for Businesses West on what I find valuable in visiting a potential manufacturing partner for or with my clients.

End of an era! 5 years spent here as an employee f End of an era! 5 years spent here as an employee followed by 4 further years visiting. R1 and R2 are now closed for business. Shame it took the office closing for a past-and-present staff ride out and BBQ, but better late than never I say. A really good way to spend a Saturday. Thankyou to all who came, and to Sandrine for organising. #officeclosure #bikedesigners #industrialdesign

Let’s talk luggage. In my opinion good bike lugg Let’s talk luggage. In my opinion good bike luggage is versatile. Easy on/off the bike is a must, and one handed opening a no brainier. One large main pocket is super handy to dump ‘all the stuff’ and little zippy pockets for valuables/lip balms/sun lotions/keys such a bonus. I really like the brand @camel_chops I mean apart from the awesome colour ways available, small brands are exactly what the bike world needs. #bikepacking #tern #terngsd #getstuffdone #cyclingdesign #cyclingaccessoriesdesign #sportsdesign #bikedesigner #sportdesigner #luggagedesigner #luggagedesign
Yesterday I gave a talk to the team at @shift_acti Yesterday I gave a talk to the team at @shift_active_media to give a bit of a glance into the work and methods that go into designing cycling products, with a special focus on helmets. They were all so welcoming, and there were lots of questions at the end. Thankyou for having me, and thankyou for taking time out of your working day to come and listen to me.
