Before the off. The first one I’ve made it to in ages. Turn out’s lower than normal because all the students have gone home.

Luckily I was reminded before I headed home. Link to this post! Another good turnout. Link to this post! Quite a good turn out. I expect there’ll be even more before we set off.

Link to this post! Dammit! I forgot about Critical Mass again this month! And only 11 people turned up. My presence would have been so appreciated. Technorati tag: Critical Mass Link to this post! Still We Ride, a documentary about the mass arrests of cyclists at last August’s New York Critical Mass (the one that coincided with the Republican convention). The film’s premiere will be at the very cool sounding Bicycle Film Festival. Technorati tag: Cycling, Critical Mass Link to this post! Critical Mass happens on the last Friday of the month in cities all over the world. I used to go on them, and when I remember which Friday is the last of the month I’ll do it again. Of course, if you turn up to the regular New York Mass on the Friday before the Republican convention, the usually easy going NYPD will arrest the lot of you and throw you in “Little Gitmo”. Link to this post! I went on a Critical Mass yesterday, for the first time in years, and people from the local branch of Indymedia were filming it. I look forward to seeing myself in jerky video action. Link to this post! One of Manchester’s busiest city centre streets is going to be closed to cars on Sunday. I remember back in my Critical Mass days when we were supposed to be holding up the traffic, by the time we reached Deansgate the traffic would be holding us up. Link to this post! Is there something about getting into a car that turns some people into inconsiderate arseholes and lowers their IQ? Stretches of Oxford Road have a cycle lane, which should be a good thing. Except that some drivers coming out of the side roads have decided the gap is actually there for their benefit, so they can edge an extra two feet out into the road and remain protected from the stream of traffic going by. Of course, it doesn’t matter to them that this pushes those of us on two wheels out into the traffic they want to stay safe from. Link to this post! |
