Kidical Mass is a free community event, part of a global movement, to celebrate and promote those who want to get around our cities by bike, especially children – who represent our future. On this ride we will also be celebrating the newly opened Valley Garden 3 cycle lane through the Old Steine.

The event is organised jointly by Brighton Bike Hub & Bricycles.

ALL WELCOME

Jointly organised by Brighton Bike Hub & Bricycles, this is a fully safety-stewarded and free event for people of all ages to ride safely on our streets and call for a city where everyone can use cycling to get around securely and independently.

This ride will focus on Hove, with two feeder rides setting off at 2:00pm from four locations:

  • Hove Park
  • Wish Park
  • Hove Cemetery
  • Stoneham Park

By 2:45pm we will all converge at the Peace Statue on the seafront to ride together in a loop around town (you can also join the ride here).

At 4:00pm the ride will finish back at the Peace Statue.

Bring costumes, flags, bells, whistles and an adult if you’re under 16!

B&H Kidical Mass is supported with funding from Cycling UK as part of the Big Bike Revival programme.

About Kidical Mass

The Kidical Mass movement highlights that safe streets and active mobility for children and young people are the key to the mobility transition! Children who are active by bike and on foot from an early age remain so as adults.

Kidical Mass bicycle demonstrations, each spring and autumn, paint a positive picture of the future and make change toward active travel tangible.

At Brighton Bike Hub we work with Bricycles and other local projects to bring Kidical Mass onto the streets of Brighton & Hove every September and April.
