Elcyclista is not only an awesome site with marvelous photograph essays and lovely prose, but Conor has also designed a gorgeous stylish kit, by Capo. I scooped a pair of the armwarmers for the UK's ever-changeable weather system, and found them to be an essential wardrobe addition. They are your usual armwarmer affair, with a soft brushed lining and gel gripper atop of the arm. One thing i loved about them is the lovely little touch at the cuff... 'On your right' and 'On your left' adorn the pink detailing. Excellent stuff!

Available to order HERE

Last night I had the pleasure to be invited to go to a preview of the new Rapha Autumn/Winter 2010 collection. Rapha head honcho Mr Mottram gave an introduction and highlighted some of the key items you can expect to see on riders this fall. Rapha have launched a total of 23 new products bringing their offerings to 80 items in total, so there truly is something for every rider and every budget. There are the categories now of Racing and Training, the new 'Deep Winter' riding range, perfect for those sub zero temps experienced on punishing Alpine climbs, or over the pond in the depths of a Portland winter, and the expanded 'City Riding' line, for those of us pootling around on shorter distance commutes where style is key!

Rapha have again teamed up with classically British designer Paul Smith for some wonderfully striking items. A rich purple is the defining feature of these products, and I have to say.... seeing it in the flesh i absolutely LOVE this colourway. I am currently eyeing up the silk scarf as we speak! There is a special edition rain jacket pictured here, offered in both black and purple. Safety minded, the drop down rain tail and cuffs are crafted in electric pink, with a reflective logo of course.

Rapha have added a really nice pair of city riding jeans to their stable. Ideal for couriers or commuters who rather enjoy a pub stop on the way home, their tailored slim fit is not restrictive, and the denim is a blend of Nylon and Cordura, meaning less abrasion, resistant to stains and quick drying. They feature a pocket for a D-Lock at the rear and have a lovely high-vis reflective logo and pink piping on the interior, visible when rolled up. Truly a jean designed and made with cycling in mind.

Ladies will be offered the lovely logo t-shirt, which is great, because iv always really loved them for chilling around in, but thew men's XS is still too large for most ladies. It will be available in a new colourway, a very nice rich navy colour. Expect to see Bianchista sporting one of these at a cycle event near you!

The ever popular Merino neck warmers are back, and this time will be offered in a pink flavour, perfect for contrasting to a matching black jersey.

The silk scarves and city gloves are back this year, and very nice they look too. Legwarmers will be a popular addition, if the success if the classic knee warmers is a barometer.

The winter jersey has had a few tweaks and now has some very smart embroided logo business on the back. Official team issue is always nice when executed Rapha style! Pictured above on the right are the new ladies 3/4 bib tights, featuring the same excellent plush padding found on their half shorts, from padding guru's Cytech.

Pictured above are no doubt going to be the toast of the winter cyclo-x season. Rapha revamped the jersey and bibs offering them in the wicked candystripe colourway. Padded shoulder remains as do the kit bags for stashing muddy togs after those mental rides in the forest. The colours of the new cyclocross team Rapha are going to launch over the pond. More info on that here .

This winter Rapha will venture into the skinwear market, offering a soap with the scent of Vontoux, a winter embrocation (perfect to ride those torrid downpours in before returning home to a bottle of post-ride Rosso) and finally a chamois creme. The embrocation boasts Capsicum and wintergreen for warming, along with Arnica for soothing those aching muscles. The chamois creme has a base of Shea butter, allowing for luxury moisture of your precious undercarriage, whilst Rosemary extract acts as an anti-bacterial agent to help avoid those ever painful saddle sores.

The tweed softshell is back in a more refined guise this year. A lovely buttoned pocket on the back is perfect for keys, phones and maps, whilst the shoulder and arm detailing gives a nod to the classic hunting style. Made in wool tweed, it boasts the Schoeller membrane seen on their other softshells, yielding protection from the winter showers that will be on their way soon.

DeFeet will be producing a really nice pair of Rapha oversocks this season, in both black and white. Designed for cold but dry days, the offer a perfect compliment the existing more robust overshoes. They will be offered in a bundle I believe. The bottom photo shows the new softshell winter glove. I tried these on, and they feel really insulted and windproof for those bitter morning club runs. A reflective logo and tab detailing on the glove will allow wearers to dazzle road users when signalling turns.

I didn't actually think Rapha could step up their game even more, but yet again they have pulled it out of the bag. Function is never compromised for style with Rapha's new gear, yet somehow items manage to be wearable even in civilian life, and This years collection really does have something for every type of rider, and items for all budgets, perfect for small gifts to friends, to that shoftshell investment I guarantee you will still be wearing years from now. Launch dates for the new pieces are from early September to October, as usual all interest can be registered over at rapha.cc ensuring you're first in the queue when the clobber hits the shops.

I massively regret not buying one of the Rapha silk scarves when they were available (I really wanna do the silk scarf fridays or whatever it was called). My guru of all matters Rapha, Brian from the WMP tells me that this wasnt in fact to commemorate the cycle club, but was to commemorate 100th anniversary of the voiture balai (Broom wagon). If you count the number of brooms featured there are.... thats right, 100! A lovely little tribute if I say so myself
