Notes from the organizers:

6 p.m. Critical Mass Bike Ride. Theme: F*ck your Gender! Meet at the Liberty Pole (at the intersection of East and Main) at 6:00PM on Friday, July 20th, for a celebration of free gender expression and bicycle riding!

“Gender f**k” is the lovely practice of purposely bending, blending, or breaking stereotypical gender appearances and mannerisms, resulting in a mixture of non-stereotypical gender identifiers that provoke the onlooker to question their gender assumptions. Fuck your gender! Yaaaaaay gender fuck!

Critical Mass is a slow-moving, leaderless bicycle ride that celebrates cycling and cyclists’ right to the road. CM is an event and not an organization. Rochester Critical Mass has it’s monthly ride on the last Friday of the month, 6PM, at the Liberty Pole in Downtown. Ride Daily … Celebrate Monthly!

7PM: Deconstructing Gender (a gender 101 workshop): After the ride, come out for an evening of deconstructing and challenging societal assumptions on gender and sexuality. Come view a dazzling film montage and join an exciting dialogue on personal experiences with gender roles. With activities inspired by Kate Bornstein’s Gender Workbook, find out what it means to be “perfectly gendered” or a gender outlaw. Location: St. Joe’s House of Hospitality, 402 South Ave.
