Critical Mass
Critical Mass is not a Coastal Cyclists sponsored ride. It is actually as
much a social movement as it is a ride. For the uninitiated, there is an
excellent video depicting what you can expect
HERE. Coastal Cyclists recommends that all riders wear a helmet and
obey all traffic laws on every ride (not just this one!). |
