First Critical mass chennai

Kick starting the Chennai edition of Critical mass!

What is Critical mass?
Critical Mass is an initiative for the growing cycling community to showcase their presence to the city and the world. People from all skill levels , ages, sexes and sizes are welcome. To join in you just need to have 2 things ... a bicycle and love for bicycles :)

Critical Mass is a bike ride, not an organization, and no two riders participate for exactly the same reason. "What is Critical Mass?" is a question that has as many answers as participants. The only real way to answer the question is to join the ride yourself. So what are you waiting for ???

A short History of nearly everything about Critical Mass

The Critical Mass movement started in San Francisco on the Last Friday of September in the fall of 92. Following suit, a lot of cities around the world have started their own rides. Preserving the spirit of Critical Mass, different cities follow their own timings and dates of the month to complement local habits. However some have diverged/moved ahead of the concept and started similar rides but with starkly contrasting dates of the month to preserve originality :)

How will Chennai do it? Let's wait and watch.
