The time is fast approaching for us to take back the streets again. <?: prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />

Critical Mass is about creating awareness via an unorganized mass participation commute, essentially providing everyone with safety in numbers. We need the numbers to make some sort of an impact, by numbers I?m talking of 100, that?s my target for this.

If we can get at least a 100 people to arrive on the last Friday of every month then there will be some sort of impact, at this point we?re not there yet (hint, hint).

The date will be the 31st of October (Halloween for those who don?t know).

Details are:

Group 1, meet at Baxter at 06:40 to depart at 06:45, to Long Street

Group 2, meet across from the CTICC at the top of Long Street at 07:10.

From here we cruise through the waterfront over to GlenGarrif road and back along Green Point Main road (maybe stopping for coffee).

Remember, dress casual (or dress scary, it is Halloween), we?re working here.

Also, we don?t care what bike you ride, points will not be lost nor indeed allocated but for cool factor old school steel fixie?s are really gonna wow the crowd.

Forward this to everyone!

Because I really do have a job that I really do need to go to! And it is nowhere near where this ride ends, in fact I have to turn around and go back in the opposite direction and then some.

We shower at home you prat cause it aint far enough to cycle to work from anywhere in PE so once we get to work we go back home. And in anycase we would just cycle down W Moffet-Cape Rd-Target Kloof and then home down Main Road Walmer. That should get more than enough awareness and P1ss@ff just about the whole of PE's drivers now I really want to do it.

Cool see you all on Friday, where is this coffee establishment of which you speak?

Probably not gonna hang for coffee, have to head to work kinda urgent like for this one.

Might be getting a few more peeps from my side to join as well.

It's a couple of blocks from Giovani's. way more space - you know for all the numbers we'll have!

Either way I'll stop for coffee there, so who ever doesn't have to rush off to meetings etc, can stop and chill there for a short while!
