Eugene Tweed Ride 1/16/10

by Lesli Larson

On Saturday, I'll be joining friends for the third Eugene Tweed ride. Here's my ride report from the Spring 2009 edition. For novice participants, I'm setting aside a few garments for your Saturday ensemble. Since the forecast calls for rain, I'm suggesting you layer with a Hilltrek ventile cycling jacket in lieu of the more traditional, heavy overcoat. For dryer conditions, substitute a Huckecote tweed shooting jacket: the Clunie for ladies or the Redford for gents (matching caps and breeks available).
