Tweed Ride

Decade-old Bike Friendly Oak Cliff is revving up again.

The nonprofit, created in an effort to change attitudes toward cyclists in Dallas, gave away 55 refurbished two-wheelers and new helmets to neighborhood kids in September, the same day the group serviced more than 40 bikes for free. Plans for similar events are in the works for next year. Meanwhile, the group wants to show us a good time on our bikes. BFOC hosts a virtual Tweed Ride on Dec. 6 that leads riders independently on a historic tour of Oak Cliff, West Dallas, Fair Park and Downtown. Find the full route on BFOC’s social media, and if possible, make a donation to its mission of putting butts on bikes. Show us your best vintage look and time travel to destinations near or far. Tag #BFOCtweed, @bikefriendlyoakcliff and @advocateoakcliff on Instagram. And become more intimate with our city’s history.
