Approximately 15-20 mile ride?

From the Critical Mass Website:

"Critical Mass Houston is a casual bike ride starting from Guadelupe Plaza park 2311 Runnels st 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 and we roll out around 7:30pm. We’re usually back at Guadelupe Plaza park between 10 – 10:30pm.

From Critical mass:

"Meet up on the last Friday of the month between 6:30 – 7:30PM at 2311 Runnels st. It happens every month, rain or shine. We’re pretty easy to spot, just look for the thousands of bicycles."
Ride Etiquette

If you’ve never participated in Critical Mass before, please go over the simple instructions listed below:

1 This ride belongs to all of us. Take care of it.

2 Keep the pace/speed being set by the ride leaders at the front of the group. This is not a race.

3 Stay in the right lane whenever possible.

4 Please DO NOT show aggression to vehicles. Drivers may sometimes show their frustration by honking or yelling at the mass. Please ignore them and keep the peace.

5 Drinking is not recommended during the ride. Please save drinking for after. Riding while intoxicated is not safe for you or other riders around you. Also please don’t litter.

6 Please do not ride recklessly. Have fun during the ride but please don’t ride in a way that is unsafe for other riders around you.

7 Have fun and know that each rider represents the entire mass. Help us work to keep a good reputation with the city and drivers that share the road with us.

Day of the Ride

1 Inspect your bike for any possible repairs needed.
