Ah, Jay, you have so much to learn!
This is a legitimate
fear. https://s2-ssl.dmcdn.net/iYGwF/x1080-Nm1.jpg

not been body-snatched by the Brompton pod people.
I think Bromptons are really cool. I remember a proud Brompton owner
in Helsinki telling me it changed his life. It allowed him to take the
train into the city, then easily get to work without a car. And he
demonstrated the Brompton's amazing folding, both super-quick and
extremely compact.
Nobody in his or her right mind uses a rain cape except maybe the
tweed people. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fr6wY9ifYmE.
Hey, how did they sneak a video of me into YouTube?? ;-)
There was a Yehuda Moon comic I can't find now. He chanced upon a
bunch of people dressed in wool sport coats, wool caps, riding
antique-looking bikes. Several told him things like "Lovely costume,
old chap!" His response was something like : "What?? There's a tweed
ride??"

Ah! Thanks!
(How did you find it?)
Google image search for yehuda moon tweed ride. Search on the site
itself got me nowhere.
