September Critical Mass

What a change in the weather over the August Mass, this month it was 53*F and very overcast threatening rain when we arrived at the starting point. There were about 50 people in the Mass, and the 3 of us this month and I took both of my Electras (Hellbillie & Rat Fink). There were no other interesting bikes in attendance. Almost shivering, we set off and went up through Yorkville then down Yonge, and as we passed Wellesley the clouds opened up. Not wearing rain gear and having no fenders on the bikes, I decided to wait it out under the overhang of a building on Grosvenor street near the YMCA. After about a half hour, the rain slowed enough for us to head home. 75 minutes, 5km.
