Boston's 16th Annual Halloween Bike Ride 2015 was a blast. Our MIT convoy was the largest yet - so much so, that I actually had to stop traffic about 5 times from 84 Mass Ave to Copley Square, just like Boston Bike Party volunteers (I learn from the best).
Once at Copley Square, we were blown away by the array of costumes and the creative genius that sparked some insane ideas. (I wonder how much wind resistance they put up with?)
Those who came last year might recall the 700+ cyclists that rode out in the streets and the wild battles between a few motorists and cyclists that followed (traffic was not obeyed as streets were inundated with bikes). This year, Boston Bike Party organized the masses, and they followed a strict code. Click here to read about how we rode (also a great resource for people organizing random, large groups of bikers in suburban areas).
Thanks BBP for a wonderful time! Join our upcoming events:
