On Thursday, Mark and I met with Matt Wempe and Molly North of the City of Fort Collins to discuss starting a monthly Kidical Mass ride. As explained on the website http://kidicalmass.org, Kidical Mass is nothing like Critical Mass, and instead is a “legal, safe and fun bike ride for kids, kids at heart, and their families”. Unfortunately, the City of Fort Collins Police Department has a negative association with Critical Mass, and therefore Molly and Matt suggested we steer clear of the memorable moniker and land on something more innocuous. As we are eager to have the support and enthusiasm from FC Bikes, we will definitely be riding under a different name. Hmmm. Any suggestions? As FoCo is the mothership of New Belgium’s ‘Tour de Fat’, I have considered ‘Tour de Fort’. But nothing about that name suggests families… Fort Collins Family Ride? Pedal Parade? Mark’s suggestion: “The Monthly Cycle” haha (he lives with too many women apparently). I’m pleading all 4 of my readers PLEASE HELP!
