Bridgwater Kidical Mass – September 2023

No doubt you know all about our first ever Kidical Mass ride in Bridgwater earlier this year. With it having been such a stunning success, we are keen to build on that and keep the momentum going.

Kidical Mass is an important demonstration. It’s a global movement that encourages families and people of all ages to come together en masse in a fun protest, to ask for streets that are safer for everyone.

On Saturday 23rd September as part of another Global Kidical Mass Action Weekend, you can take part in a short circular route from Blake Gardens, starting at 11am. It should last about 45 minutes, and as before, will be fully marshalled for your safety.

“Kidical Mass is a fantastic fun way of making a serious point. We used to play in the street as kids, but would you let your kids play in the streets today? We’re not anti-car by any means, but in recent decades our towns and cities have become too car-centric, without enough safe spaces for walking, scooting, playing and cycling. Kidical Mass highlights the joys of family cycling as well as drawing attention to the lack of safe provision.”

Fancy dress is encouraged, as well as flags, balloons, bells, whistles, streamers… you get the idea! Join BACC for a fun time and make a statement too!
