There’s a Tweed Run slated for Queens Bday in Sydney.

Anyone interested in a similar Canberra ride, maybe a joint event with Rat Patrol and other assorted northside freeeks?

haha - perhaps it was too soon, the thread went ‘dead’ quiet… 😛 now the question is - where can i get some ‘tweed’ to meet the criteria for this run? at least considering it’s on the northside i won’t have to worry about getting the bullet proof variant

I am interested to see the level of outfit to bike congruity at this. Tweed hats look shit after being crushed under a helmet all day long.

I think it’d be a good meetup.

Thanks for the bump!

Only two days to go till Tweed Ride - two more day to assemble your vintage outfit, trim your moustache, get that Brooks saddle you were always hankering for… prizes will be awarded for the best groomed participants and sweetest ride.

Rug up well and don’t forget a flask of something warming to drink. The plan this Saturday is to meet the main body of riders at Goreman House at 11.30am and roll away at noon.

This is a great social ride for fixies and “friends of fixies”, especially if they have a tasty classic bike or phunked-up banger to ride.

Let me know if you have any questions. Look forward to seeing you there.

Best regards,

… and ale and pipesmoke!

Attendees include some of our local alt photgraphers (Cole Bennett, Alyeska, Deye Aus) so camera-whoring will be richly rewarded 😃
