CYCLING IS NOT A CRIME

Friday 28 October

Join London’s biggest ever Critical Mass cycle ride

London Critical Mass meets at 6pm outside the NFT on the last Friday of each and every month. The ride often flows around central London taking in major tourist attractions. There is no set route, and the direction we move in is spontaneously chosen as we cycle. Anyone is free to join or leave the ride while it is taking place. The ride usually ends somewhere pretty central, often a pub! People on any form of unpowered wheeled transport are also welcome (eg skates, skateboards, unicycles, wheelchairs, supermarket trolleys…).

Why is this one going to be the biggest ever?

On the 30 September Critical Mass, the police handed out warning letters threatening cyclists with arrest on future rides (see  http://www.indymedia.org.uk/en/2005/10/324763.html) in an indefensible attack on freedom of assembly/expression/transport. The mass will go ahead – bigger and more fun than ever. Critical Mass in London has rolled on since 1994 without the police threatening to impose conditions. Why do so now? Why are they wasting time threatening innocent cyclists?

Car drivers flock together to block the roads on a daily basis. We don’t block traffic – we ARE traffic!
