Tweed/Seersucker Ride 2?! (a plea)

Hi all,

I am planning to host the Bikefest Pool Tour 2012 this year, but I was hoping that someone would revive and return the Tweed Ride, or as I think it was called in 2010, the Seersucker Ride.


It was the same day as the pool tour and I ended up not participating.... but it is my genuine wish that this ride be resurrected!


So: I like to plan one thing at a time, and I am hoping someone else will be psyched and do this one.


If this has already been discussed, sweet! I will look forward to attending!


(pool tour thread forthcoming)

@Caitlin, OT, but for planning purposes, we are planning to do another Try-A-Bike event Aug 12, a Sunday. We'll start a thread for that at some point.

Also, I've had it in my mind that at some point, for some Friday, I want to propose something like a "Tiki" ride. Big Hawaiian shirts, big flowery dresses, maybe even dudes in coconut bras and hula skirts would be a scream. Cocktails after. Interest?

Hee. I'd probably be in for that.

@edmonds, great idea! stream Martin Denny on the boom box trailer?

Cool. I shall experiment with lashing torches to my rack this weekend. Though with a rayon Hawaiian shirt that could go badly. Keep an eye on the news.

I suspect you shall be given at least 4 feet whilst being passed.
