manchester bike stuff this weekend

mcr critical mass | 27.06.2007 09:50 | Culture | Ecology | Free Spaces | Sheffield

We cycle round the city to celebrate the bicycle:

It's for anyone that rides a bike;
Its a celebration of getting round the city without polluting it;
Its about every journey being an adventure instead of just sitting on a boring bus or in a stressful car;
Its about cyclists riding together to demand more respect from other road users;
Its a way to meet other cyclistas;

not a good idea

in the wake of the flooding in sheffield its not a very good idea to organise mass bike rides across sheffield city centre i love cycling i have a couple of bikes but the timing of this is event is not good the roads are cluttered up with debris in all parts of the city and there is still much more clearing up to done.

not a good idea
