Hey RvanZ, Critical Mass is the name behind the international movement in which cyclists "take the streets". In some parts it may be seen as being confrontational but for most of us here in SA (if I may speak for most) it is more about just getting out there on your bike and riding and enjoying our city and the company of others. It is definitely a social event. ANY bicycle is welcome. I was going to say as long as it has two wheels but that is not even accurate as tricycles and unicycles are more than welcome too. So yeah, come on any non-motorised cycle you desire. We have had some single speed bikes, some road bikes, some cruiser bikes, some mountain bikes, some BMXs... you get the idea I roll a MTB too. As for kit, whatever you are comfortable in. Some wear their lycra/cycling kit, others wear baggies and T-shirt, some come in jeans and jackets. Whatever blows your hair back. I'm not aware of anyone that has joined thus far that has judged anyone else. You don't sound like you are anyway, but don't be out off by the distance. It is a chilled ride and being around Durban it is flat, flat, so the 25km are a breeze to complete. Look forward to seeing you on Friday!
