Critical Mass Toronto is a Critical Mass ride in Toronto, Canada. It rolls last Friday of the month at 6:30 pm local time from Changes monthly; check the latest announcement.
Toronto's monthly mass ride. In 2026 it doubled as a protest against the province's bike lane removals and drew big crowds: more than 1,000 riders in August, when the mayor spoke at the start, and 783 counted bikes in September. Slow pace, one big group, music and costumes.
