Like wearing wool in the rain? Have a thing for Victorian ephemera? Excited to show off your pennyfarthing? Tomorrow is Portland’s tweed ride!

This is pretty much the classiest that Portland cyclists look all year. No Showers Pass allowed. Look! Here’s fashion star Adam Arnold from last year’s ride:

Ride meets at 11am at Union Station. If someone doesn’t bring an absinthe flask in a wicker basket strapped to their tallbike, well, I would be disappointed.

Sarah Shay Mirk reported on transportation, sex and gender issues, and politics at the Mercury from 2008-2013. They have gone on to make many things, including countless comics and several books.

  1. Yeah Smirk, trying to loose the Lola Greene Baldwin vibe by encouraging drunk biking.

    Remember kiddies for some strange reason a DUI on a bike costs the same as a DUI driving a car.

    Step away from the bike and it is only a $140 ticket.
