Take a ride in style around Exeter with Velo Vintage

By Caroline King - November 4, 2014Posted in : FEATURED-CONTENT, Food & Drink

Ringtons Velo Vintage - Exmouth - Devon

Dress in style for the 6th Velo Vintage Occasion & Ride.

When: 29th November 2014

Where: Around Exeter, Devon

£: Tickets go on sale on 8th November 2014. Tickets are limited so early booking is recommended.

What is it?

Fancy a cycle ride in style?  Then join the Velo Vintage Occasion & Ride on Saturday 29th November 2014 in Exeter.

This will be the 6th Velo Vintage cycle ride in Devon.  The idea of these events is to take a leisurely ride, dressed in the finest of clothes, whilst taking some time out for tea.  This latest event will be no exception as it takes in the cathedral city of Exeter, with a few surprises along the way.

The dress code for the ride is retro clothing from the 1920s through to the 1950s.  Previous participants have worn anything from tweed, vintage cycle gear, period armed forces uniforms, moustaches (timeless, I know) and flat caps, to braces, bow ties, pinstripe suits and vintage floral dresses. So get creative!
