Tonight, or to be more exact tomorrow morning at 0200hrs, I will be joining a few hundred of London’s cyclists to observe a modern day Midsummer ritual.<\/p>\n

\"MM1\"<\/p>\n

Commuter folk, couriers, Critical Mass riders and ordinary everyday bike folk will cycle from local meeting points to converge upon a succession of beigel bakeries, all-night cafes and coffee shops before riding en mass to Primrose Hill.<\/p>\n

\"MM3\"<\/p>\n

Here, we’ll all chat, talk bikes and before watching the sun come up as the longest day of the year begins at 0423hrs.<\/p>\n

\"MM4\"<\/p>\n

Afterwards, we’ll no doubt head off for a full English breakfast and pints of coffee in an effort to charge our batteries for what will certainly feel<\/em> like the longest day at work.  If you fancy joining the ride, those north of the Thames can join Tower Hamlets Wheelers<\/a> feeder ride, those ‘sarf’ of the river can hook up with Southwark Cyclists<\/a>.<\/p>\n
