Well, with the collaboration of several regulars at the mass and your friendly neighborhood facebook, a little planning in advance has been done and we have a proposed route for tonight.  We’ll be leaving downtown as close to 7pm as possible and heading into the East side this month.  The ride rarely goes into that side of town, but we thought this month would be a good time to change that.  A few different stops include a local skatepark, University of Houston, and Hermann Park’s Miller Outdoor theatre.  In addition, there’s a party going down at the IndieHouse on Calumet and there’s also a benefit at the Photography Center on Alabama.  Don’t know if the ride will be able to hit all of those up in one night, but as usual, we’ll play it by ear and simply enjoy the ride.

There’s a lot of buzz about tonights ride with many people bringing new first time riders.  Should be a good night.  If you’re coming out, be sure to be safe on the ride, respect vehicles, enjoy a laid back ride, and remember that this is a casual ride, not a race.  See everyone tonight!

What up What up?!  Welcome to the new Houston Critical Mass site.  This new site will be devoted to the critical mass rides that take place each month in Houston,Tx, which takes place on the last friday of every month.  This site is the creation of Dunamis Media and The Byke Project.  We ride, we freestyle, and we love to ride fast!

Through this site we’ll offer updates on the monthly mass rides, recap each month’s ride with photos and video from fellow riders, and link you to any and every other bike and fixed gear related site on the web to help keep everyone connected.  If you’d like to contribute to this effort each month with photos and video, just hit us up and we’d love to link to your Flickr feed or throw up some video.

This month’s ride takes place on Friday, June 26th.  We meet at Tranquility Park, which is in Downtown, right across the street from City Hall.  Everyone meets there between 6:30 – 7pm.  The ride technically starts at 7, but sometimes starts a little late.  Just be there on time and be ready for a chill ride.

Contact us with any questions or if you’d like to be added to the Critical Mass mailing list.  We won’t spam you, we’ll just keep you posted and informed on any events or future rides.  Enjoy.
