That was a really cool critical mass, apart from the stretch along clerkenwell road.
Positives, hundreds if people really nice route, from waterloo, round downing street, parliament square, the mall, a few circle of buckingham palace, hyde park, park lane, piccadilly, shaftesbury avenue, then along the hipster spice route to a party at the foundry.
Negatives, some guy probably being a dick, and getting arrested next to the rapha cafe, then a mob formed around the police, they were only a few guys, and they had hundreds of cyclists having a go at them, they called backup, and within a minute or so another 8 police vehicles arrived and moved people on. Generally they were pretty cool, I had a good chat with one about whether he should get a langster. But some people were being idiots, and were provoking them, even opening up the police van to get the guy back out.
