Is it any wonder why handsome men in Tweed just take a Tweed girl's breathe away? Ewan Gregor aside…

Victoria BC sure knows how to do a Tweed Run!

As I always wholeheartedly suggest… you owe it to yourself to check out the many fine photos from this event by visiting the photographers linked below.

What I especially like is the ribbon momento for the ride. It was made from the original invitation, then made a keepsake with ribbon and worn as seen here on Devon Kurtz who came up with the idea.

Lastly in this selection of May Rides is this one from Chicago's Country Tweed Ride...

These were all inaugural rides. Budapest had a nice sized turn out and here is a video to enjoy. The Liverpool and Oxford runs ended up in pubs which always makes for good finish --so follow the links below, under photo credits to see more of the fun! Odense Tweed Run is on FaceBook and I believe to be Denmark's first Tweed Run group!

More to come, more to share with you.
