Tweed Ride: A Glorious Saturday Roll Through Town

The 3rd Annual Kalamazoo Tweed Ride was a huge success all thanks to our incredible community of support! A total of 72 community members joined us for a slow roll through the city. Together we raised $3,900 for Open Roads programming! One of the best parts of Tweed Ride this year was seeing such a variety of riders out to join us. We had commuters, serious cyclists, young folks and older, in vintage attire and cycling gear, and both families and individuals who came alone and met new friends. It was a good day for unifying some of our biking community here in Kalamazoo. There is a long list of people to thank for making this year our best Tweed Ride yet:

Thank you to our sponsors: Old National Bank, Old Dog Tavern, Old Mill Brewpub & Grill, Seber Tans, PLC, and Brink, Key, & Chludzinski, P.C.! Thank you to the participants, volunteers, organizers, and students who made this event so successful! Thank you, Newschannel 3, for coming out to cover the story. Thank you, Aaron Van Heest, for all of the beautiful photos! Thank you, clouds, for holding your rain in all day so we could have a sunshine-filled ride through our beautiful city together!
