Critical Mass

All riders interested in participating in the Sydney WNBR should consider participating in Sydney Critical Mass. Marte will be attending some Sydney Critical Mass rides in the lead up to the Sydney WNBR to promote participation, encourage people to help organise and holding organising meetings after the CM ride. We meet at the Archibald Fountain at the Northern end of Hyde Park, on the last Friday of every month at 5:30pm for a 6:00pm departure. You can find a map and pictures of the location on the Sydney Critical Mass wiki page.

Future

In August 2007, Marte volunteered to help organise WNBR in Sydney for 2008 and this continued in 2009 and 2010. In 2011 cycling activists from Sydney who often participate in Critical Mass organised the ride. New volunteers are always welcome to help make WNBR Sydney 2012 a big success. Your contribution of ideas and practical help is welcome. People interested in participating or organising a WNBR in Sydney should at least try to come to Sydney Critical Mass rides (see above) and the occasional WNBR meetings that follow, join the discussion group, try to make contact with others with similar views and demonstrate some initiative. Please refer to the Organizing a ride page for more information about how to help organise a WNBR.
