AUTUMN RIDES

A STEP THROUGH SPOTLIGHT

Location: Clifton, Bristol

As the days grow shorter and the leaves turn shades of amber and gold, there’s something particularly enchanting about a ride through the heart of Bristol. One autumnal day in October, we accompanied Ana on her picturesque journey to and from work with her Step Through Lightweight bike...

The Step Through Lightweight is a city bike that perfectly blends comfort, elegance, and functionality. Whether commuting to work, running errands, or enjoying a leisurely ride through the neighbourhood, this bike handles it all with ease and grace.

For Ana, this bike gets her to and from work, gliding through the streets of Clifton on her way. The lightweight frame makes navigating the infamous Bristolian hills a breeze, and its upright geometry allows Ana to sit comfortably, soaking in her surroundings. On this particular day in early autumn, the parks on route were full of vibrant colours, and the air was crisp—just cool enough to remind us that the season was changing.

It's meditative riding through a park on an autumn day. The soft crunch of leaves beneath the tires, the gentle breeze rustling through the trees... Ana paused at several points along her way home, taking in the peace from a park bench with a flask of coffee and a good book, conveniently stored in her front basket and Temple pannier backpack when riding. The Step Through Lightweight, with its easy to mount and dismount frame, made it simple to hop off and back on as she pleased, allowing her to savour the scenery.

As she left the park and ventured home through the narrow village streets of Clifton, the bike’s agility and smooth handling came into play. It felt perfectly at home on the winding roads, making it the ideal option for those who want a versatile bike for both city and countryside riding. Whether she was rolling past townhouses or coasting down gentle slopes, the bike kept pace effortlessly.

Ana’s ride is a reminder that you don’t have to travel far for an adventure—sometimes the best moments are found in the everyday, in your own neighbourhood. With the Temple Step Through Lightweight bike, every journey, no matter how short, becomes an opportunity to reconnect with the world around you.
