As we left the ruins of Harvey West, the sun set brilliantly. Join us every Friday outside of O'Neill's at 5:30- and for Critical Mass, the last Friday of every month at 5:30 at the Clock Tower! Hope to see you there as we advocate for bicycling in Santa Cruz, sustainable transportation, and best of all, make new friends and have fun riding together!
