Tons of Tweed

This past weekend I crossed a few borders to the north to take part in Roanoke, Virginia's second annual Tweed Run. Organized by David Verde, street style photographer and writer for Angel's Point of View, a tweed run is basically where one dresses in tweed and partakes in a group ride with a predetermined route.

 

 

It was a gorgeous morning. Meet up and registration was at Too Many Books, a locally owned bookstore in Roanoke. There everyone hung out and had coffee and tea to warm their bones (temperatures hovered in the 40s) and socialized with fellow riders. Below are pics of the tweeded-out participants. Come back in a few days to see shots of the actual ride.
