[ calling bikers! ] my pal jack is organizing the tweed run this year and looking for sartorially-minded cyclists to act as escorts & volunteers next saturday. some nice perks are included.

The Tweed Run is Looking for Fine Lads and Lasses on Saturday, October 15th.

The Tweed Run is coming to NYC and we need YOUR help to make it work.  We’re looking for ladies and gents looking to partake in a leisurely jaunt through Lower Manhattan and Williamsburg, surrounded by coterie of likeminded individuals while looking their most dashing.

As a volunteer, you’ll help out with:
  • Leading the ride and ensuring the safety of your fellow riders
  • Putting up/taking down decorations
  • Set up/serving/breakdown of the Tea Break
And to sweeten the deal (over the wonderful amounts of fun you’ll have just being in tweed and riding around being a dandy)
  • An open bar and free dinner following the ride
  • A few small goodies from Ralph Lauren
  • Entrance to the afterparty
If you’re interested in helping out, the details are as follows

Start: Sat October 15th at 9:00am
@ Rugby - 99 University Pl, (corner of 12th and University in Manhattan).


Finish: Ends at 6:00pm with Afterparty

Volunteer Afterparty w/ Open Bar 7:00-8:00pm

Attire: Tweed if you can, Jackets if possible, Khaki if no tweed.  Button downs, scarves, fancy hats, bric-a-brac, etc a plus.  ALL BIKES ARE WELCOME!  YOU DO NOT HAVE TO BE ON A PENNY FARTHING or a dutch bike or anything.  Fixed gears, touring bikes, 3 speeds, cruisers, all are welcome


Skill level: Must be comfortable riding a bike in new york.  You’ll be surrounded by other riders and must be comfortable navigating from Union Sq to Tribeca to Williamsburg.
