Critical Mass Bike Ride in Surrey
Saturday, March 24, 2007

Join fellow bicyclists for a leisurely and spirited ride and roll through the streets of North Surrey!

Meet at Surrey's Central City Square, beneath Bing Thom's sparkling showpiece tower, at 3:30 p.m. for a 4:00 p.m. departure. The ride is on rain or shine! Decorated bicycles, trailers, costumes, signs, flags, noisemakers, gettoblasters, sound systems, drums, and modified bicycles are all highly encouraged. 

Cyclists will be celebrating the presence of the cycling community in Surrey, testing the cycling infrastructure, and showing their opposition to the twinning of the Port Mann Bridge and other Gateway Programs to expand highways and automobile congestion.

Celebrated around the world, Critical Mass is a grassroots reclamation of public space which allows cyclists and other self-propelled people to move safely and comfortably through city streets in a car-free space. Non-polluting forms of transportation are promoted.
