That was a very different route, it seems that the mass stays primarily downtown, and usually starts up Market. I really liked the ride, the route was different and fun, everyone seemed more friendly than ever, and the cops were especially nice - making conversation with riders, etc.
Did you stay for the end? I stopped to help a girl with a broken chain, but the mass didn't get very far. One of the riders got hurt after being thrown from the hood of a car. If you didn't hear about it or others do, I'll write up a more detailed description soas to not spread any inaccuracies (A friend of mine gave me a detailed first-hand account). In short, the CM rider was an idiot.
