RAPHA + PATTA
All for the Love of it.
To toast our new collaboration we welcomed the Patta crew for a day and night in London. Rolling the dice around corners of the capital, our magnificent seven absorbed the vibrations and left their tyre marks on this mad metropolis. All for the love of it. And love for all.
Don’t worry about training plans, just ride for the love and the rest will follow.
Lewis Bloyce, Rapha London
Rapha Continental? Nah this is a full English!

Showing the Patta crew around, how we navigate the streets we know so well, it was effortless. Everyone was vibing.
Donna McConnell, Rapha London
IT’S A LONDON THING
From Box Hill to Brixton, Hackney to Hillingdon – for a London cyclist it’s a life less ordinary. Whether you’re sprinting for green lights at midnight, carving through rush hour or just rolling to the pub, the lines you can choose here are infinite.
ROYAL HIGHNESS
The old dog still has its tricks. The kingdom may not always be so united, but in London the diversity of its people are what gives it oxygen.
From the gun, the weather that day was sublime. The city shimmered with positivity like it only can when the sun is shining.
It’s going green, bruv.
Jack Talbot, Rapha London

This is How We Ride
For too long, we have been an afterthought: pushed aside and made to wear kit that limited our self-expression, and restricted how we love to ride. We’ve been left out of races, undervalued and underestimated. It’s about time for change.
