Yesterday I took part in the first Tweed Run, a group ride gathering about 150 cyclists, all dressed in tweed, plus fours, flat caps, etc… A lot of them brought their classic bikes along, with some dating as far back as 1909. Our leisurely stroll took us around London, clearly puzzling foreign tourists and locals alike.</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://arkitipintel.com/all-entries/"><div align="center"><img src="http://content8.clipmarks.com/blog_cache/arkitipintel.com/img/0FBA8BA5-A54B-463A-9AE2-67B2242F9EA8" alt="tw11" /></div></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://arkitipintel.com/all-entries/"><P>Teddy, the organizer:</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://arkitipintel.com/all-entries/"><div align="center"><img src="http://content9.clipmarks.com/blog_cache/arkitipintel.com/img/B6F5AC72-6BDC-4E66-A181-D7B3E92DB39B" alt="tw1" /></div></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://arkitipintel.com/all-entries/"><P>More dapper chaps:</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://arkitipintel.com/all-entries/"><div align="center"><img src="http://content6.clipmarks.com/blog_cache/arkitipintel.com/img/3B0EC235-19CF-4C00-846F-5C5D65E21C5A" alt="tw3" /></div></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://arkitipintel.com/all-entries/"><div align="center"><img src="http://content7.clipmarks.com/blog_cache/arkitipintel.com/img/24673046-A234-4EF2-875E-E19FA6B0E3E2" alt="tw2" /></div></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://arkitipintel.com/all-entries/"><div align="center"><img src="http://content8.clipmarks.com/blog_cache/arkitipintel.com/img/5559EA85-43E2-43C0-AB02-08B7F4268A44" alt="tw8" /></div></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://arkitipintel.com/all-entries/"><P>Tweed Vans!
