This Sunday, May 5, hundreds of people will participate in the Kidical Mass, a bicycle demonstration to demand the right of children in Barcelona to be able to travel by bike. This is the third edition of this recreational event that will have as its anthem the song of the children’s group Xiula called Bicibus.
This weekend, other cities around the world are joining the demonstration, including Paris, Rome, Vienna and Berlin. The Kidical Mass was born in Oregon (USA) in 2008 to demand that children should be able to ride their bikes safely on the streets.
which streets in Barcelona will be closed for the Kidical Mass this Sunday?
Several streets will be closed to celebrate the protest event. The route through which the bike demonstration will pass will be: Litoral Avenue, Bac de Roda street, Pujades street, La Llacuna street, Pallars street, Bilbao street, Calvell street and Poblenou park.
what time does the course start and distance?
The meeting point is at 10:30 a.m. on the morning of Sunday, May 5, at the Poblenou Park. The Kidical Mass circulates safely on the road, occupying the space of the cars in a vindictive way. The route is a circular route of 4.2 km. that will be accompanied by music, animation and dynamization.
In order to organize an inclusive event, volunteers offer accompaniment to children who are unable to pedal due to any type of disability.
