Critical Mass 20th Anniversary Ride and Interstellar Ride
Saturday, September 24, 2012 until September 30, 2012
On the last Friday of September, 1992, a group of San Franciscan cyclists showed up on Market Street for the first ever Critical Mass. This leaderless ride became a monthly “organized coincidence”, and in the years that followed, spread around the world. Celebrating a shared sense of rediscovering urban spaces, Critical Mass riders cross borders and find common cause to have a good time on foot-powered wheels. These uplifting rides also challenge the use of city streets and the domination of cars and oil in
our transportation system.

To mark the 20th Anniversary of the first Critical Mass ride, a group of enthusiasts has formed a Welcome Committee that is organizing a week-long celebration September 24-30, 2012. With great pleasure, we invite you to join us in San Francisco, California for our planned events, and we encourage you to get involved and/or create your own activities.

Dozens, hundreds, maybe a thousand friends from around the world will arrive here to help us commemorate this milestone. Friday the 28th is of course the big birthday, the Interstellar Critical Mass ride, which we hope will be a giant, crazy, awesome evening ending in a big party under warm skies.
