Thu. February 12th, 2009 Tweed Ride

It’s about time our fair city celebrated the fine pleasures of Herringbone, Bow Ties, and Bicycles. We refuse to endure anymore spandex! Nor will we sully ourselves by “corking” — or whatever it is the kids call it these days. Our fine brethren in jolly old England really know how to sport a cap--so I say, so shall we!

Break out your dashing B. Spoke Tailors wool finery, smartly set that cap on your head, straighten your tie, and join us for a fine ride through the grand city of San Francisco!

We will sally forth from the gorgeous Dolores Park near the majestic bell at the 19th Street entrance. The ride will begin at 6:30 pm and from there we will peddle a winding course through the streets — waving to all the beautiful faces we see along the way.

Of course as it is February, it may be brisk out and maybe even a little wet, but your wool knickers, waxed cotton raincoats, and recycled wool armwarmers, legwarmers, and helme hats should keep you warm and dry. However, if the cold still seeps through never fear as our destination is Irish coffee at the marvelous Tosca Cafe.
