Actually, "oost" is east in Dutch/Flemish dialects.
Oeste is is indeed west... in Portuguese.

During the time Brad spent in Flanders, his Flemish improved to the point where he realized that "oeste" is actually east. A few beers later, he realized that the Ronde's tees are a bit off but we think that makes them a bit more endearing (and ironic in a Portland-esque way). You know you want this tee to wear this around all your cycling buddies, especially when they try to tell stories about how they like to "kill it" when they're riding the Springwater corridor on their commute.
Check out the Crusade Crusade gear store for the "officially incorrect" Ronde tee.
