In the past few years I have seen Glasgow`s passion for cycling grow wither it be the success of the pedal for Scotland events, the building of the Sir Chris Hoy velodrome or just the sheer number of cyclist you see on the roads, trails and skate parks. As a product of this success there has been many homegrown Glasgow business pop up and flourish Trakke bags, Rig bike shop, the bike station and now Siempre Bicycle Cafe to name just a few.

On Friday I got a couple of my mates together to go give Siempre a test. We were greeted by the co founders Callan and kirsteen who both work there and we were instantly bowled over by there enthusiasm for cycling and great service. The shop is fresh and totally different to anything else in Glasgow, offering some great brands of cycling clothing that you don’t really see in other main stream shops. There cafe is also nothing short of amazing offering organic locally sourced coffee and food. We were so taken by its welcoming feel we returned later on that night for a BYOB which had more of a party feel to it than your normal cafe. Siempre has been lovingly created to give a much needed hub for the lucky cycling community of Glasgow next time your here check it out in the mean time check out their website for more info. Thanks to Ande Murdoch for taking a few snaps for me!
