Everybody ought to have a Lower East Side in their life — Irving Berlin

Save the date! Held in New York this year for the first time ever, the Rugby Ralph Lauren Tweed Run is a one-of-a-kind cycling event that combines our love of classic tweed style, British cultural heritage and a good, old-fashioned bike ride with friends. On October 15 we’ll be dusting off our vintage velocipedes and winding through lower Manhattan — breaking along the way for tea, of course — before finishing the ride with a gin-swilling party in Brooklyn. We’ll be outfitted for the occasion in traditional British cycling attire, particularly tweed blazers, kickerbockers and riding caps.
