Tweed Ride

The 7th Annual Des Moines Tweed Ride will gather fashionable cyclists from all around the metro to celebrate cycling in style  Sunday November 13th at the Royal Mile.

Doors open at 10 am for a traditional English lunch of fish & chips, judging will begin at Noon and the ride leaves for the Capitol at 1 PM sharp!

This is a short bike route, in preparation of the ride many have been shopping for tweed, plaid, herringbone and woolen clothing. 


This ride will start at the Royal Mile with stops at the State Capitol for a group picture, then The Iowa Tap Room for refreshments and then ends at Royal Mile.

Rain or shine or snow, many of last year's participants confirmed that nothing will stop them from coming together to celebrate fashion, cycling and party while listening to 1930s ragtime and swing music.

Many wonderful prizes will be along the way. This event is co-sponsored by the Royal Mile,Ichi Bike, BikeIowa and more sponsors to be announced soon!
