Some great pics are over at I’m Roxy Dammit‘s Flickr. Make sure to browse through for classics like this.

    this was an excellent ride, and the public’s response was great, in my opinion it beat critical mass, hands down

    Love it! Such dapper chaps!

    In kind imitation of our British brethren, San Franciscan bicycle and herringbone aficionados will be hosting their own Thursday Tweed Ride!

    Not only it beat critical mass hand down, it does exactly what critical mass originally stand for, after riding the entire route, I notice that not only the sight of 150 people dressed in 1930′s fashion enlighten people’s day, but even vehicle drivers seemed to love it as well!

    brilliant day, hope to do it again next year.
