critical mass perth

It’s not a protest!
It’s a celebration, of bicycles and riding. It’s about saying just how much we love our city, how much we love riding our bicycles through our city.

We meet once a month on the last Friday of every month at the steps below the State Library at 6.00pm, ride starts 6.30pm.

What is Critical Mass in Perth?

The idea behind it is to promote cycling as a means of transport in the city and to have an enjoyable ride with like minded people. It is not a fast ride. It is not a protest. It is all about enjoying cycling through this beautiful city and letting other people know what a great way to travel it is.

It is also part of something much larger. Critical Mass takes place in cities all over the world.
Generally, since its conception, it has been about riding your bicycle (or any other form of human powered transport) around the city in which you live on the last Friday of every month. However Critical Mass is different all over the world. For example in Budapest Critical Mass is only held twice a year and attracts around 10,000 participants, in other places (like here in Perth) it is a monthly event involving smaller numbers.
This freedom is a defining feature of the movement and there is no fixed route nor a leader. As they say; 'Critical Mass is not an organization, it's an unorganized coincidence. It's a movement ... of bicycles, in the streets.'
