        <![CDATA[<p>I'm Lorri Lee Lown.  I'm a professional cycling coach in  San Francisco, CA  and I founded a women's cycling organization called <a href="http://www.velogirls.com" target="new">Velo Girls</a>.  I absolutely love to ride -- road, mountain, cyclocross, you name it!  Cycling was my hobby for many years before I became a coach, so when cycling became my job, I realized I needed a new hobby!</p>

<p>Since I started riding, I've been on a quest for unique, creative bicycle jewelry.  I've always liked the concept behind spoke nipple bracelets -- create a piece of jewelry that uses an actual piece of bicycle componentry -- but most of the ones I've seen have been uninspired, poorly made, or very masculine in design.  I decided to design beautiful, colorful, jewelry-quality bracelets for my friends and got so hooked on the process that I'm now offering them to the general public.</p>

<p>Each bracelet is completely unique – a one-of-a-kind creation.  I use high-quality beading wire, silver crimps and clasps, and the finest glass beads from around the world.  </p>

<p>Designs range from whimsical to traditional to industrial in a wide range of colors and styles.  Each is adorned with genuine spoke nipples, integrated as part of the design, not as an after-thought.</p>

<p>You can purchase one of the bracelets pictured on this site, or send me your color choices (the sky’s the limit) and I’ll design an original bracelet just for you!  We can personalize your design by adding charms, names or sayings, or other ornamental pieces.<br />
