Pride March 2012 Sunday 5th of February |
|
This Sunday come and join Bent Kranks at Fitzroy Street St Kilda for this year's Pride March.
It's a lot of fun to take part. Thousands of onlookers will cheer you on as you cycle or sashay down Fitzroy Street. All support is welcome and encouraged, as are delusions of rock stardom as you bask in waves of applause.
To have a real visual presence we are hoping to have as many riders (or walkers) as possible participate. We especially need walkers to hold our banner aloft and hand out flyers. Wear bright coloured cycling gear or street gear, even dress up your bike if you like!
Pride March will finish with an open air celebration in Catani Gardens on the foreshore. There'll be performers, DJs and lots of colour and movement!
Assembly for the march is at 12 Noon in the parkland at the northwest corner of Fitzroy Street and Lakeside Drive. The march itself will commence at 2PM sharp.
Meet at our marching position #83.
That's in between Melbourne Spikers Volleyball Club and Pink Magpies.

Bicycle Victoria is keen to hear from available people who would like to 'count bike riders', for the project known as Super Tuesday.
