Critical Mass August 2015

Summer Critical Mass rides are usually smaller than normal, but this month was a reasonable sized group, probably helped by the sunshine.



Being Pride weekend there were quite a few rainbow flags,



some larger than others!



Somehow we ended up doing two laps of the Northern Quarter.



Being a pleasant evening, the traffic was also in a reasonable mood, with no impatient drivers that I noticed.



Whilst the level of traffic was quite light in the Northern Quarter,



once we hit London Road we got stuck in traffic.



Then it was out onto Fairfield Street as the ride headed towards the Velodrome.



At the Mancunian Way I left for home.



All in all a very pleasant ride, but I'm not sure that Manuel Göttsching's E2-E4 was to everyone's liking...
