A little look behind the scenes for how the amazing night ride image was made. Wax crayons and inverted luminescence. There might be another Friday night ride soon.

Bonus Critical Mass this Friday evening (7.30pm)! Still starting from Middle Meadow Walk. We hope to see many of you on Friday, and give us songs you want to be played on our big speaker during the ride! 🎶🚴🚴‍♀️🚴‍♂️

🚲 New impromptu ride, this very Friday, 7.30pm. Starting on Middle Meadow Walk by the compass. We will publish the route later this week, but before we do that we need you! Reply to this post with songs you want to be played at the ride and we will put them on the big speaker 🎶

Thank you everyone for joining yesterday! We rode through the modal filters on Cluny Drive that will unfortunately be removed soon. But this won't stop us from continuing campaigning for better and safer infrastructures Also, save the date, we are having an impromptu CM ride this Friday evening!

"Sure bikes are alright, but what if I need to haul some rubble to the recycling centre?" A bike trailer is a cheap and flexible way to increase your bike carrying capacity without needing to invest in a cargo bike. Want to try before you buy? You can pull the speaker trailer at the next ride!

Critical Mass tomorrow 2pm Middle Meadow Walk! Join us for our monthly friendly protest ride. We will go towards Braid Hills, through two modal filters that will unfortunately be removed soon.

July Critical Mass is coming up! Join us this Saturday (25th) at 2pm, Middle Meadow walk. And here is the route, about 4.8miles (7.7km) with likely a short break midway.

Very enjoyable afternoon with @edcriticalmass.bsky.social riding to St Mark's Park to hear about the Powderhall link. Loved the music & the joyful atmosphere.

Here is the planned route for the June ride coming up on Saturday 27th. Meet at 2pm by the Compass on Middle Meadow Walk. #Edinburgh #cycling #EdCriticalMass
