The long-awaited return of the Tweed Ride is upon us. This Saturday (March 5th) will be the first of this year’s two ride offeringst. After the smashing triumph of last year’s debut ride, organizers have decided to offer both a ‘Virtue’ and a ‘Vice’ themed ride. More details and the brand new poster (created by local graphic designer Gabriel Amadeus) below…
The Virtuous Tweed Ride meets at 11:00 am at Union Station. The ‘Vice’ Ride, which organizers describe as “A surely ignoble and iniquitous ride,” will be on April 2nd and meets at 4:00 pm on the wharf at NW Front and 18th. See a larger version of the poster here.
Get into the tweed spirit by watching the slideshow from last year’s ride…

Oh come on, people! This is Portland! You should have your tweed outfit ready to go at a moments notice! 😉
Tweedledum and Tweedledee!
My friends and I were looking forward to doing this. Looks rad. But, four days notice? Seriously? We already got plans 🙁 Have fun!
I had this on my calender like 2 months ago…I forget where I heard about the dates…someone on twitter maybe, but the info has been out there.
