# Event Details

- **Event Name**: Critical Mass Cape Town #criticalmasscapetown #criticalmass #africacycles
- **Event Start and End Date**: Fri, 25 Sep, 2026 at 07:00 pm (+02:00)
- **Event Description**: Join us as we make our way along the promenade, to the Sea Point pool pavilion, back, through the V&A Waterfront to the Silo District, along the canals, through town, taking in various landmarks, and up Long street, returning via the fan walk to our starting point*.

* The route is subject to change.

For those seeking a refreshment stop, the group may split after Long Street, with one contingent returning to the starting point immediately, and the other diverting for drinks.

For those with smaller children, who would like to avoid the city section, there is an exit point back to the starting point after the promenade.

The event typically lasts between two to three hours, and we cover approximately 20-25 km, at a genteel pace, with regular stops.

Whether you're on a bicycle, ebike, recumbent, unicycle, uniwheel, monowheel, roller blades, or something else, all are welcomed.

Meet opposite the Green Point McDonald's.

Any changes, and/or cancellations will be published across our social media platforms.

Critical Mass is a non-profit, non-commercial, and distributed movement.

The use of helmets and lighting is strongly encouraged.

Please be considerate of fellow participants and other road users.

--

On the last Friday of September 1992, a group of San Francisco cyclists decided to get together for a ride through the city.

The idea, in the words of Chris Carlsson, one of those riders, was that "by being in a group, we fill the streets with bikes and maybe make our own space for a change. ... We'll be the traffic."

Critical Mass was born.

Word soon spread, and it wasn't long before similar group bike rides – leaderless, non-centralized, largely celebratory monthly happenings – were taking place in other cities around the world.

Three decades on, Critical Mass is an international cycling phenomenon, with events taking place in over 300 cities worldwide.

Critical Mass Cape Town was founded in 2019.

Critical Mass is a form of direct action in which people meet at a set location and time and travel as a group through their neighbourhoods on bikes.

The idea is for people to group together to make it safe for each other to ride bicycles through their streets, based on the old mantra: there's safety in numbers.

Critical Mass events highlight the numbers of people who want to use their bike on the streets but are usually unable to do so without risking their safety.

They are a call to action to councils, governments, and road planners to properly and thoughtfully design in the safety of all road users, including those who would prefer to walk and cycle, instead of prioritising motor traffic above all else.
