Kellie, Lakeview, Chicago, IL

Kelly rides an Origin 8 single speed for her casual rides around the city.
Cycling Tip from Kelly:  Braiding my hair when its fresh from the shower makes it fit nicely under my helmet. As the day passes, my hair dries and I have an awesome wave when i undo the braid. Come time to put the helmet on again, braid it up. It keeps it knot-free and provides body for when off the bike.

  1. Kelly looks comfy in those boots, and appropriate for a cool fall day.
    I also thought I'd mention that I believe that there isn't an "Originate" bicycle, but rather that this is an "Origin 8" bike. Thought I'd pass the info along in case anyone was interested in this type of bike.

  5. Totally Agree! I've been really into fishtail braids lately.

  6. I find a single braid in back helps keep my hair tangle free with all the scarves and stuff you have to wear in the cold.
