Critical Mass Islamabad (CMI) aims at reviving the culture of bicycle as a healthy and sustainable mode of transportation. CMI through its various rides has explored the city roads as well as the rural/countryside i.e. off-road sites in the Capital to promote tourism and healthy sport activity. At large, the group has grown in number due to its efforts for promoting bicycling as a communal sport, and by involving people from different age and socio-economic groups irrespective of any boundary.
