  • That looks so cool. I wish I knew it was happening. Cool tweeds and the wonderful Savile Row.

  • Inspired by this noble event, “British Bicycle of Chicago” will host the 1st Annual Winston's Tweed Ride on Saturday, 2 May 2009. The 10 mile route will take the ladies & gents past an into some of Chicago's infamous speakeasies. The day commemorates the 80th Anniversary of Winston Churchill's invention of his exquisitely dry martini: gin poured over crushed ice with the vermouth observed from across the room!
