Thanks everyone for coming, and for sharing these excellent pics. Dinosaur is my utmost favourite of the whole night!
What a huge turn out too. Some of the press were reporting it as 1 0r 2 hundred cyclists. I'd say the Blackfriars ride was creeping close to a thousand (trust me, I had to stand on the side of the road and watch you all go past with the BBC man) and by the time it joined with Critical Mass it was epic, I've never seen such a big CM.
Great atmosphere, great turn out, lovely people, point well made. This, though, is I am sure only just the begining.
With regards to the Monday ride, this was originally my idea. LCC HQ wanted to focus on just doing the one big ride on the Friday night (media friendly and all that) However, if everyone wants to do it all again at 8.15AM on Monday morning, there's absolutely nothing to stop them. It likely wont be as big as Friday though. Maybe the trick is to all go single file or something, I don't know. Somthing to make it look different?
