Critical Mass is an organised coincidence of bikes and other non-polluting forms of transport that come together on the first Friday of every month in Birmingham to collectively reclaim some of the city’s roads. Birmingham’s Critical Mass is normally dormant throughout the winter so it was inspiring to see nearly 20 people on this ride and a great response from pedestrians who were cheering us on. The monthly ride is picking up momentum and is set to snowball for spring and the summer. There are also plans to screen a CM film at Birmingham University and a ride afterwards feeding into the main mass sometime in the future.

Here are some photos of Brum’s February Critical Mass.
