Just found out via the
Cyclist's Touring Club's e-newsletter that the law lords have stated that
Critical Mass can go ahead without notifying police - see
this report. And I see that it's an old acquaintance of mine,
Des Kay, who has been at the sharp end of what seems to have been a protracted legal battle to prove that it is legal for people to cycle on the roads. I shall have to take part in
Nottingham's Critical Mass now! Looking at those photos of October's meet, I'm sorry I chickened out.
