Events

Just a reminder that it's the end of the month and time for another Critical Mass ride around Richmond!

We'll meet at the Richmond Municipal Building, 50 North 5th Street, at 5 p.m. and leave around 5:15 for a southern loop that will bring us back uptown for refreshments courtesy of Jim and Vicki Hair of Richmond Art Works, 829 E. Main Street.

The proposed route is down South 5th Street to South L Street. From there we'll head east on L Street to South 23rd Street. Heading north on 23rd we'll head west on South B Street instead of going up to Main Street. South B will take us to 16th where we'll head up to Main and continue west until we get to Richmond Art Works. There may be modifications to this route at the discretion of the leader.

Join us!
