Critical Mass Houston is a casual bike ride starting from downtown Houston and going wherever. Cars rule the road every day, but one day a month we get together to celebrate our love for bicycles and have fun riding our bikes. This is generally a slow-paced ride where persons of all skill levels can participate. People start gathering around 6:30 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nawUqAOEcrk) and we roll out around 7:15pm. We're usually at our final location between 9:30 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nawUqAOEcrk) - 10pm, and each time we try to finish some place fun and hang out for a while.
Meet up on the last Friday of the month between 6:30 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nawUqAOEcrk) - 7PM at the Historical Market Square park at 301 Milam in downtown. It happens every month, rain or shine. We're pretty easy to spot, just look for hundreds of bicycles.
