Missoula's Sensational Tweed Ride 2010

You are invited to revel in an afternoon of leisurely cycling about our fair city in your British best. That's right, Missoula's 1st Annual Tweed Ride is sure to be a sensational event, one you just can't miss!

The ramble will rendezvous at McCormick Park at 12:00 on November 7th.

At only $8 to participate in our stylish jaunt and merry-making, you can revel in an afternoon of tweedtastic fun without breaking the bank. Email allisona.goodman@gmail.com to see about advanced ticket sales.

Invite your friends and co-workers to join in on this cycling sensation--a new hip and local annual Missoula tradition-- for a jaunt through town in your most dapper attire. Keeping with the aesthetic is a must: tweed, houndstooth, hats, dresses, argyle, and well groomed moustaches are welcomed and encouraged. Visit MissoulaTweedRide.tumblr.com for further tweedtastic inspiration.

Boom Swagger salon is one of the sponsors for this charity ride, and we welcome you to schedule today for that Dapper and Dandy 'do, perfect for the vintage-inspired event! Poorly-groomed moustaches will not be tolerated, Gents. Thus, we can help make yours worthy of Maverlous Moustache title. Boom Swagger is awarding prizes for the most dapper 'do, so come ready to strut your stuff.

More prizes for best bike and most stylish lads and lasses willl be awarded by the hippest boutique on the strip, Betty's Divine. Leave modern garb and lycra at home for your recovery ride the next day. Come looking dandy for the on site photographer and order prints the day of!

You don't have to have a vintage cruiser or retro racer to join in; any wheels will do. Travel will be at a Mary Poppins pace--ride at your own risk!

Meet at Free Cycles at 4:00 for hot soup and bread, various hot beverages, wine and beer, live music and a rollicking good time! Please tote along a mug or pint glass to help support sustainable efforts.

Tata for now, Missoula!
