Jolly Good Event: ClankWorks to host Pittsburgh’s 1st Tweed Ride

This looks pretty sweet, hoping to go.

So maybe it’s not the first tweed ride in Pittsburgh, but it may very well be the first one in a really, really long time – maybe since our city was spelled “Pittsburg” sans the “H.” Don your finest tweed and join ClankWorks for a jolly good ride through town. The ride is set to meander through the Strip, Downtown, and Allegheny City (that’s the Northside for the Pittsburgh history illiterate), and end up at Piper’s Pub in the South Side, the city’s finest English pub and restaurant.

For those who don’t know what a tweed ride is, it’s a phenomenon that’s been sweeping the country since the early 1900’s. Riders dress in their finest tweed, mount their pedalcycles, and take a leisurely ride through town. Pipes and krimpets are encouraged.

Take a look at some shots from San Francisco’s Tweed Ride. You don’t need much except the willingness to have some fun!

Event Info:

Pittsburgh’s Premier Tweed Ride

Saturday, April 3 at 3 pm

Meet at Doughboy Square – the confluence of Penn Ave and Butler St

FREE (but bring money if you want libations or food at Piper’s Pub)

If you have any questions about the ride, check out the ClankWorks blog.

ClankWorks is a new cycling business in town, and our neighbors across the square! Once open, they will be making and carrying natural wood and bamboo fenders, as well as a variety of other products to help you make your bike look great.

Google Adds Bike Maps.

Google doesn't have the bike lanes, sharrows, or state designated bikeways integrated for Pittsburgh yet & they need some traffic flow metrics or something in their process, but this is still pretty awesome.

Moving to the Land of Yinz

So, I'm moving to Pittsburgh!! Specifically, probably Bloomfield. I got a real graphic design job, which is kind of scary. It's at a place called ComponentOne. http://www.componentone.com

Now I just need to find a place!
