2011-04-09 Sat - The London Tweed Run 3

what time tomorrow?*

I had meant to sign up for volunteering but alas have got an engagement on the day that I simply cannot miss. One of these days I'll make it on another Tweed Run.

*couldn't resist ;]

giving away pairs of tickets in our facebook page and twitter from tomorrow.

(why do i feel like i'm going to regret this?)

Because you know how small minded and petty people can be?

Good luck, Teddy!

contest number one up on our facebook page now

more tickets on offer on our twitter

just come from trying on shirts in jermyn street, and roderick charles have a sale on tweed jackets are 150gbp, rather than 395gbp.

^^good tip. Cheers Corny!

I have a feeling some people are going to be spending a lot more money on dapper cycle-wear than I am!

There's a pop-up suit shop by Tavistock place on the hipster highway that had tweed in the window. Suits were £75, so tweed should be cheap.

pashley, one of our lovely sponsors, has generously offered to make us a special edition clubman in tweed run livery. it's just being built up in the pashley workshop at the moment. handmade buckingham black frame in 531 with ivory highlights and gold luglining. it's sweeeet.

when it's done, we're going to auction it off on ebay, with all proceeds going to bikes4africa. the winner can collect and ride it at the tweed run. stay tuned for more info.

that's awesome.

Now thats a prized thing for someone to own!
531 with mudguards, saddlebag and other gentlemanly appointments one presumes?

I'll have it with the two-speed kick-shift please!

There is no way I will not get outbid, given my available budget, but want!

There is a nice rail of plus fours at around £35 in the vintage shop downstairs at Stables Market in Camden.... Jackets at £40 odd. If that helps anyone?

I love it. I want it. Desperately.

I got my jacket for £8 from a charity shop... it doesn't have to be £££

saying that, I bought some dromarti's for this year

good work pashley and Tweed Run that's ace

+1 that certainly should raise a few quid for charity

What size frame???? just want to rule myself out

A little moth has told me there may be a run being organised on the same day as the Tweed run, very informal, unlimited numbers, fancy dress optional, might be of interest to anyone unable to get tickets for the TR? anyone interested??

If you're organising a ride, it's best to post details about it, like where and when for a start.

ebay definitely has a lack of plus fours in my size, starting to think I should bulk up a bit. This year is first tweed run for me and the mrs, looking forward to meeting everyone - happy to tag along with anyone who couldn't register in time with friends

not me organising, was talking to someone the other day, I think I'm working on the day.

Isn't it, a 'little bird'?

Cryptic clue perhaps?
