The August ride last night had many hundreds of participants (as usual for a summer ride) – though I’m not going to try to estimate more precisely! Quite a few people I chatted to before and during the ride were first-timers – and there were certainly many old-timers too.

Critical Mass London September 2017
We loved the London Critical Mass ride. This time, it went to the site of the latest killing.

Critical Mass London 30 January 2015
The route included St Paul and Brixton – and a shopping mall in between.
Reports from FB:
It was a great night, lots more than last month and without the cold rain we had last year.
Getting into the shopping mall was great, the security man’s last words that I heard were “I’m surrounded by bikes” Continue reading
