Critical Mass

Last Sunday another Critical Mass was organized in town. This was the biggest so far, about 1500 people showed up. It was a nice ride through town and even the black clouds left when it started. The organizers can still improve their skills (more about this in romanian here).

I made a lot of pictures which you can find on Picasa here and on Facebook here. I also posted a video on Yotube with a kid who pedaled 18 kilometers with just a little help from his father:

See you at the next one :)

Critical Mass

On the 22nd of April (2012) if you are in Targu Mures and if you have a bike you should be at the Critical Mass. It is a great biker celebration and an event to raise awareness about the huge numbers of bikers who represent a big part in the daily traffic.

Last year there where about 1200 participants and this time the organizers are expecting even more people. More information (in Romanian an Hungarian) on the official website here. 

Here are some pics from the last Critical Mass:

Last Saturday I participated in the local Critical Mass. It was probably the biggest so far. There were a lot of people so I couldn't get a green t-shirt this time. I was standing in line like the organizers asked, and they told us that they have enough for everybody but they didn't :(

After the ride there was enough water and bread with grease for everybody. There was a dirt show also. Here are some pictures:

The route is almost unchanged, the start is at the Sala Polivalenta and we pass trough all the major parts of the city. The finish is on the side of the Mures river at the Beer Pharmacy. The organizers are expecting one thousand participants. The event has a Facebook page, more information in romanian here.

Critical Mass in Targu Mures

Saturday there were a lot of people in green shirts on bikes in the city. The time for the spring critical mass was here so I went to take some pictures and to ride with a lot of people. The ride was slow and it had about 10 kilometers. We cycled threw some of the major parts of the city. At the finish, on the side of the Mures river water and bread with grease was waiting for us :)

Here are some pictures:
