The TENTH Critical Mass- is HERE- CM10 I am Riding... Are You??

MEET POINT CHANGED: Shivaji Park, Outside Gymkhana. Keluskar Rd. just left from entry road into Shivaji Park opposite Sena Bhavan signal.Dadar

End Point:Somewhere before Breach Candy

Ride Distance: WHY COUNT WHEN ITS SO MUCH FUN!!.
Dress Code: As colorful as you can get

Considered Compulsory: NOTHING....


NOTE: During Critical mass
We ride in a particular formation; we take up a lane with two riders riding side by side.
The reason for this formation is to protect the not so experienced bikers from the traffic.
There is a tendency to slip through spaces in chock a block traffic. While that is an advantage a cycle has in traffic, but during critical mass with quite a few inexperienced riders every time the formation is broken we put riders in danger.
And believe me there are a lot of riders that are not comfortable with riding in traffic.
So please stick to the formation it makes it safer and easier to manage.


ADDITIONAL DETAILS:
---------------------------------------------------------------
Critical Manners :
• Please follow lane discipline and road signals where necessary.
• Helmets dont bite! try them. They can be your best friend on your bike
• Please Carry Water with you ( Backpacks/ Bottle Holders)
• There is no leader/ organizer for Critical Mass.All for one,One for all.
• This is not a race. Ride without Hurry, not with Fury.

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Critical mass is a small initiative to give back power to the people. Weather it is environmental issues, social issues or cyclist’s rights. The small act of riding together says that we matter and cannot be taken for granted. Start small, take charge! Ride free!

Superb group rid. Honestly, I loved the city traffic since I wasn't stuck in a car for a change ;) Hope everyone reached back safely.

thanks guys for turning up in good numbers, sad that there was way too much traffic than expected (4th saturday of the month..). Any ways, hope you had a good time.
