Recap Rewind: D.C. Tweed Ride 2009
The Tweed Ride phenomenon has been sweeping hip U.S. cities (Boston, San Fran, New York), so it was only a matter of time before D.C.’s style setters would organize one of our own. (Didn’t you hear? The 1890s are back!) More than 300 dandified bicyclists took a leisurely ride across the city on Sunday afternoon, ending up at 14th Street gathering spot Marvin for a proper afternoon garden party, with proceeds benefitting Arts for the Aging. We were there in our most dapper duds to snap the action and talk serious fashion (the mustache: making a comeback?). —Betsy Lowther
