2009-01-24 Sat - The Tweed Run I

just been out for a ride in my tweed outfit, to see how biking in tweed is.

*some thoughts on a gentleman's first bicycle outing in tweed. *

1. tweed is impressively warm
   
2. tweed is also surprisingly itchy
   
3. bicycling in brogues is not as easy as in trainers
   
4. automobiles are more polite and much less aggressive towards you when you're in tweed
   
5. it's nice to put a smile on people's faces
