As someone who loves tweed, Argyle (if you saw my socks in my wardrobe_remix photos, this would be more evident), and vintage style in general, I was delighted to see that cyclists in Washington, D.C. had organized a Tweed Ride.

Cyclists in Washington took part in the city’s first “Tweed Ride,” an event in which bicyclists put on their most dapper attire and toured the city. Participants were encouraged to wear Victorian-era fineries and ride vintage bicycles. The practice began earlier this year in London and since there have been rides in San Francisco, Los Angeles, Chicago and Boston.

I’d love to see Seattle join that list.
