I think there is either beige/dark brown or dark brown. Remember, it's Yorkshire, unless you're ordering coal, we haven't got black, yet.

i think we should have a competition on the best dressed at the end of the ride in the pub.

best dressed male
best dressed female
best dressed bike (not necessary an entire new project, simply a bar change, saddle swap, mudguard fitted etc. on your original bike to avoid spending money).

for those who's not sure on what to get, those should help you get some idea;











(especially for the females as some of them have no idea what kind of clothing to wear during the tweed run!).

Then, I got to work and Shoots told me about the ride. DAMN!
