London Critical Mass February ride.

About 300 riders turned up and still no police.

After setting off the ride passed a flashmob at Waterloo Station. There was only one circuit of Parliament Square this time but with sound systems playing merrily in the SOCPA zone. Annoyed motorists hooted in Trafalgar Square but there was a friendly blast from a large lorry. Then on to the Embankment and a very good job of corking at Blackfriars Bridge. Reaching Islington turned left on to Pentonville Road. After Kings Cross taxis pushed in dangerously on the Euston Road. The way was then wended to Oxford Circus, where bikes were lifted on high and there was some amazing dancing in the streets with lifted bikes. The ride then continued into the unknown down Oxford Street.
