| Introduction | Bristol's version of the worldwide monthly bike ride. Critical Mass is a monthly bicycle ride to celebrate cycling and to assert cyclists' right to the road, happening on the last Friday of every month in most major cities in Europe and America. Here in Bristol we meet at 5.30pm at the fountains near the Hippodrome, leaving at 6pm, on a route determined entirely by those present. We take a leisurely ride, allowing us to make our point and communicate effectively with other road users and authorities. By reclaiming public street space from their typical domination by private cars that pollute the air and endanger people, we hope to raise awareness for: - the benefits of cycling - the need for better public transport - the need for more cycle lanes - cut down your driving - car drivers need to chill out - cycling is fun and there are lots of like-minded people willing to do something to help the environment. If nothing else its a fun evening that finishes in the pub |
