Sunday 24th October

some of you may know that each year i bike mcr celebrates the coming of
more bike loving students to manchester with a week long mini festival in
october. this year we're having it a bit later than usual to give everyone
a bit of time to settle in...

it's gonna be the last week of october- monday 25th- sunday 31st
(HALLOWEEN) October.

we'd love it if everyone that wanted to participate in the rides,
workshops etc also participated in the organising, planning and preparing
in one way or another....

a bunch of us went to the paris velorution last month...here's a video

Nes, Ronnie and Ed from the I Bike MCR Saturday Road Rides went to France and rode up Alpe D'Huez.....

see here for the film:

Ok so usually we have the I Bike MCR meeting the first Thursday of every month. as the two main attendees, me and anna, shall be away and as we are usually short of people and because people always say they forget when it is i have an exciting new proposal!!!

I propose that it takes place for an hour before critical mass. I know that means some people might not be able to make it that early, but let's just try it this friday and see who comes.

I'd prefer to do it inside in case it gets cold so let's try 5pm at Oklahoma Cafe, 74-76 high street
