This is my current cycling corner. Unfortunately it’s only temporary as this is my son’s bedroom, still young and sleeping with us.

I must admit that my selection is quite biased by my Italian-Australian background, so brand choice is highly influenced as I like to support Italian and Australian businesses. And no, I have no association or ambassadorship whatsoever with any of those brands, I just like them!

I own a selection from Ale, Castelli, Santini and MAAP for cycling jerseys, bibs, warmers, socks, base layers etc (one rain jacket from North Wave).

Two MET helmets, bot Trenta but one is the Carbon 3K (when I want to feel like Tadej Pogacar) and the other is the Mips version (for my commutes to work). Next purchase has to be a Kask Protone Icon in matt grey.

I have two pair of shoes, North Wave Storm Carbon and Fizik Tempo R4 Overcurve…but I would love to have the DMT KR0 (too expensive for me!).

Glasses are the Rudy Project Tralyx with prescription inserts and 4 different interchangeable lenses. They are not the coolest looking glasses, just one of the cheapest. I surely need to upgrade these when I have the budget. I would love Oakleys but I don’t think they do optical inserts, and prescriptions are too expensive.

Unfortunately I can’t afford an Italian bike, depicted in the photo is a Giant TCR.
The only Italian things I can afford on my bike are some components, such as the Prologo Scratch M5 with Carbon rails, the Vittoria Corsa Pro tyres and Elite’s bottle cages 😢.

Sorry for the long list and for showing off…after all aren’t we talking about cycling fashion? 😅

Now your turn, I am keen to see how your cycling corner looks like and the pieces your own!
