Tweed-Moxie-Mustache-Ride

Tweed-Moxie-Mustache-Ride by cicleorg.
The Tweed, Moxie & Mustache Ride

A reunion of wool, bare knees, slanted caps and facial hair - the Tweed, Moxie & Mustache Ride awaits you on Saturday, November 21st, hosted by C.I.C.L.E. Chaps and dames will enjoy this cheeky ride through the Art Deco highlights of Downtown Los Angeles.

Uniting at Union Station as the those in the 1920’s would have, we will ride in our finest garb through the oldest streets of our fine city and arrive at Royal Claytons English Pub, a gin mill of sorts, to have some whoopee and award prizes to our contest superlatives.

We’ll meet at Union Station in front of the south courtyard and conclude with an option to stay for a post-ride hooch (aka adult beverage) at Royal Claytons Pub.

This ride is the bee’s knees!

Contest Categories include:
Best Facial Hair
Best Period Outfit
Best Common Bike and Tweed Pairing
Most Graceful Mount and Dismount

Hi, I'm an admin for a group called Los Angeles Tweed, and we'd love to have this added to the group! Having the art from all of the events would be great.

Yes that is a hint that there needs to be more tweed (or Linen if need be) rides.
