The Chicago Kidical Mass rides are growing fast and are a lot of fun.
The rides have been similar in size to the neighborhood mass rides, ie
50+ people. Please tell your cycling friends with kids about these
rides. And if you don't have kids come join us anyway. It's a good
time and we can always use the help of experienced cyclists with corking
and keeping the rides massed up and safe.
