Tweed Ride Comes To DC
By spokesman | November 13, 2009
A great thing about cycling is that there are all types of rides for different riders. On any given weekend in D.C. Potomac Pedalers has rides ranging from D through AA, triathlon clubs hammer out miles, social biking clubs have leisurely rides, racing clubs do high speed pace lines in the Rock Creek Park, bike shops and coffee shops throughout the region organize rides for people who think they are racers, fixed gear riders and messengers hit the road on their homemade brake-less contraptions and now added to this list will be the DC Tweed Ride. As the NY Times stated “The Tweed Rides began in London earlier this year and have spread this fall to Boston, San Francisco and Chicago. As the directions for this weekend’s Tweed Ride in Washington, D.C., put it: “Leave the fleece, Lycra and outer shell at home. This ride is for the dandy.”
