another discussion meeting this month, about climate change.

Everyone is welcome to take part - or you can along just to listen if you
prefer.

encouraged to be there. It was especially valuable at the last meeting to

Halloween Critical Mass: Friday Nov 4th 6pm @ Pigeon Park

31-10-2005 21:54

Last Friday was the first London Critical Mass ride after riders were told they could be arrested at future Critical Mass rides. The Metropolitan Police demanded that the 'organisers' give notice of the route in advance. Thousands of non-polluting cyclists, skaters, bladers, and pedestrians along with soundsystems and samba bands defied the Metropolitan Police's clampdown on London's Critical Mass and the Government's ban on unauthorised demonstrations within a kilometre of Parliament Square -  http://www.indymedia.org.uk/en/2005/10/326614.html

This Friday, November 4th is time for Birmingham's regular Critical Mass on the first friday of the month, meeting up at 6pm in Pigeon Park. This month is a Halloween theme - gears not fears - so come and celebrate cycling using non-polluting vehicles and travel freely round town with Brum's Critical Mass.
