It's largely business as usual for us at VV - we're among the lucky ones so far, with cycling in the UK deemed a valid form of exercise and bike shops an 'essential service'.

So we are still happily taking orders and sending them out to our many lovely customers.

That said, we are taking all sensible precautions to keep you and us safe. Social distancing means that our warehouse staff is reduced, as is the case with many of our suppliers, meaning we are still not always able to get packages out to you quite as quickly as we'd like.

Please bear with us - it's an unavoidable situation that will hopefully not be with us too much longer. Thank you in advance for your patience! x

We spent a year riding over 10,000km through the Americas, an adventure that would change our lives forever.

At the end, in Argentina, we got engaged. In 2012, we launched VeloVixen - inspired equally by our reaffirmed love of cycling and by the problems Liz encountered finding great clothing for our trip. Today, our two cycling-mad young daughters are living testament of the power of cycling!

This is our team outside our Oxfordshire HQ (spoiler: Liz doesn't really live in a basket).
