Vélo Birmingham & Midlands: 2020 Online Shop Now Open

The third edition of Vélo Birmingham & Midlands is returning in 2020 with a brand-new merchandise partner.

Scimitar, the UK’s leading custom sportswear brand, will be creating a brand-new range of official merchandise for the sportive with recycled fabrics and organic options. The new online shop launches officially today with pre-orders of official merchandise including jerseys, jackets, bib shorts and gilets.

Based in Worcestershire, Scimitar work with a number of high-profile charities and cycling clubs, and the official merchandise partnership with Vélo Birmingham & Midlands comes after the brand partnered with the Women’s Tour of Scotland for the inaugural 2019 UCI event.
