?Allo, ?allo<?: prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />

Critical Mass is here again.

The details are the same, we meet at the Baxter at 06:45, and pick up the town side group in front of the CTICC at 07:15.

It is Halloween (for the Irish and North American amongst us) the next day, so, dress up isn?t essential to your acceptance but there will be a few costumes on display, it depends if you wanna envy the cool kids or be one of the cool kids.

Here?s the links to CM Wiki: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Critical_Mass if you want to find out a little bit more about this.

Essentially we?re trying to promote the idea that riding is a very viable alternative to driving in city over run with traffic congestion, the more people we have attend the more awareness we can create, as with anything.

Moreover it?s a cool way to get around and meet some pretty interesting people.

See you all out there on Friday.

Good ride this morning people, nice one to all those that got dressed up. We had a mouse, a horny carrot, a scream character, a tinkerbell, I came as Karl Marx (subtle, I know) and the various assortment of white trash, although I think some of them were just wearing clothes and not costumes. 

Also good to see the Baxter massive was bigger than the town side massive, that?s 2 in a row now townies!

Funny thing, exchanged a bit of verbage with a taxi driver who didn?t like the fact that we were in front of him at a red light, he finished of his argument by saying (and I quote) ?you bicycles must get bicycle drivers license because you don?t know how to drive?, then he drove through the red light that we had stopped at, nice one brother. 

I did notice that no unicyclists came along, apparently they were supposed to, would have been good to have some guys with big shoes and red noses along for the jaunt.

Another month and all is good, see you all for the Mowvember ride on the 27th.

Later.
