  • Anyone else going? Anyone know the status vis a vis police position and "escort"?

    Should be chilly but dry. Wrap up or cycle fast.

  • fuck the cops, I'm carving pumpkins and gettign shitfaced

  • Cycle fast on CM? lol, that would be fun

  • I suggest a CM hijack by forum members.

    I think we should lead them someplace fun, like Alexandra Palace.

  • Yeah Mack great plan. Thing is they'll probably just stop, watch us piss off and then do their usual going-round-a-roundabout-fifty-times malarky.

  • I'm carving shit and getting pumpfaced

    Fixed

    Might give it a miss or dress up as police escort and get the lot on a MASS Grand slam

  • Police escort

  • Yeah, think I'll probably head down again.

  • Cycle fast on CM? lol, that would be fun

    If there are only seven of us, we could.

    Then again, probably best to just wrap up.

    I'll be the one on a black bike in thermals.

  • make it 9....me and a mate will probs come for a bit b4 my balls freeze off
    got to spray my bike and build it back up b4 friday or have to take my other fixed with a dodgy bb

  • Never been to one before, what's the score?

  • Just turn up outside the National Theatre around 6:30. At some stage it just moves off over an unpreordained route around central London. Slow with many stops and starts but very jolly and social.

    I am cycling down with some other colleagues and friends from the City. PM me if you would like to ride down with us.

  • working... but watching 2 of the Levellers, so that kind of counts...

  • mjs, was about to buzz you and see if you were heading down to get some snaps. Next time .......

  • yep, Law Lords permitting...

  • I'm going fixed this time so there should be plenty of laughs as I try and work out how to stop and not stack it into things.

    Luckily there won't be loads of cyclists around to see me .........

  • any news from the law lords yet?

  • Yeah what's been going on? We should check indymedia, rocksteady

    edit
    Nothing on there that I can find, except a report about september's ride having no escort, ruder cabbies than usual and a 'police attack' somewhere on the route. No mention of Fred's camera.

  • any news from the law lords yet?

    Apparently yesterday's lunch of roast guinea fowl was sublime.

  • hahahahah

  • And the cottaging went down a treat too

  • @ andyp... haha, keep me posted

  • annoying, I wanted to come to my first critical mass, but i got taken out yesterday both wheels buckled. how do i find place and times for next month? is it always on fgss?

  • Last Friday of any given month. Same time, same place.

  • Yeah what's been going on? We should check indymedia, rocksteady

    The case was heard on the 20th October and we are awaiting the verdict. Remember that this is not specifically about CM but about a point of law (which I'll probably get wrong): Whether a 'customary procession' can be considered customary if its route is varied every time. This is what previous judgements by other courts have homed the case in on. It's not clear what the implications for CM will be in any event.
