Kidical Mass ReadingSave the dates for our next Kidical Mass events, in Reading and Wokingham. No need to book: just turn up and enjoy a safe, family-friendly, joyful ride with us.
From Christchurch Meadows, at the Reading Cycling Festival.
The Kidical Mass marshals organised a family ride at the Wokingham Bikeathon, which was immensely successful!
We counted around 138 bikes at the beginning, and 100 towards the end. Smaller bikers could stop after 1 mile or 2 miles, but most people chose to stay for the whole 4 miles.
The unpredictable weather probably didn’t help, but there were still 20 of us cycling in Reading this afternoon. The only water we had was the fountain at Huntley Wharf – although no kid was brave enough to cycle through it. And for the first time, thanks to the shortened barrier on Chestnut Walk, we didn’t have to bring the ramps! See a few pictures of the event below.
Our last ride before the summer recess is at the Wokingham Bikeathon – see details on Facebook. See you there!
Today was our shortest ride ever, from Palmer Park to the Reading Bike Hub in town centre, because the weather was supposed to be very 🌧️🌧️🌧️ It was not that bad actually, so we enjoyed it!
The weather was not supposed to be pleasant today at the Reading Cycle Festival: yellow warning of wind and heavy rain… Yet, the downpour held off just enough for our 60 riders to finish a very nice ride dry. Phew!
We had a very sunny ride today, which was part of the Community Festival at the Reading University campus. There were about 40 of us at the beginning, but we recruited a few more on the way and ended up being 50. We also had a surprise guest you may well recognise on the pictures!
