London Critical Mass, July issue
It took me some time to process these images, but finally, they are here.
As usual, the ride started from Waterloo Bridge. My office is situated near Wandsworth town so I approched it from the direction of Vauxhall. Not long after passing by Vauxhall, someone patted me on the back. Since I was wearing a Critical Mass t-shirt, he reckoned (rightly) that I was heading towards the starting point and asked me if he could tag along. I happily led him there as he turned out to be a really nice guy. His name was Sam and he worked as a paramedic. We exchanged some stories, he told me about one call that had happened a couple days before. A cyclist was knocked over by a LGV and even though his helmet was smashed into smaller pieces, it definitely saved his life.
As usual, the ride started around 7pm and we immediately caused a massive congestion around the IMAX theatre.
Superman was here, but this time he chose to use his humble and mind-mannered alter-ego.
A Googler, without street view cameras attached to his bike.
As usual, there were some angry motorists, who couldn’t cope with the thought that they might be stranded for a short amount of time.
Sam and his friends.
This guy’s bike sported a couple christmas tree lights, it was quite impressive.
