To wear green or not to wear green?

To wear green or not to wear green?

We’ve never really identified as rule followers… except for the important ones, of course. If you fall into the same category, we’re here to fill you in on a big one that’s coming up. We’ll be following it, and we advise you join us. You may be asking, “what is this mysterious rule they’re referring to?” Its to wear green on March 17th - St. Patrick’s Day.  

No doubt, there are some people that have been counting down the days since March 18, 2020, and have their outfit dialed. We applaud you. However, for those of you who claim green is not “your color,” we have a few tricks up our sleeve that will save you from the dreaded leprechaun’s pinch.  

Townie Path Go! 10D Olive

 

 

Cruise to your local grocery store to pick up ingredients for shepherd’s pie on the Townie Path Go! 10D EQ in Olive. It’s a mature green for those sophisticated chefs and riders out there.

If you’re eager to chase the end of the rainbow, check out our Cruiser 1 or 7D in Spring Green. It’s just as bright as that ray of color in the sky!

How?  

He’s Dublin over with laughter!
