Last
Friday of every month in hundreds of cities around the world, cyclists,
roller bladers, boarders, etc…come together for a festive rolling
celebration. It’s an organized coincidence with no leaders and no set
agenda. People come together for many reasons, to assert their right to

this month with Critical Mass!
