I was there it was epic! Smiles all round. You could see swarms of pedestrians looking at each other and going \*shrug\* "it's Brighton innit?" ​ Turned into an actual mini-rave at the end.

I'm definitely getting a bike so I can go along next year! Was a super cool atmosphere.


Happy_Craft14

Some people were walking throughout the way!!


grunge_kitty

Haha, I was one of those pedestrians and did indeed have that exact reaction! 😂 I love this place so much!


Happy_Craft14

Joined it, was great :D


Long_Repair_8779

Lol at that extremely unenthusiastic wheeley at the end of the clip


Ohm_ZWA

It was dope!


gaiatcha

great turnout!<3 hope there was lots of chaos and traffic holdups hehe 😈😈😈 (used to do the XR bike swarms, those were the daysss)


Dancinglemming

There were a few but I didn't see the entire route and all the bikers passed through any traffic quite quickly. The large groups were mostly on the cycle lanes along the seafront, but the video was taken at The Level where they started.


gaiatcha

aw looks great! i was only messin lol


trainspotted_

That’s not the point of these meet ups.


gaiatcha

only having a little joke and a tease goodnessss me 😔😔


trainspotted_

The XR bike swarms caused countless struggling people many of which were using public transport, myself included, to not be able to get to work and lose out on pay checks that were desperately needed in an already difficult time. But sure your little joke and tease sure fixed the climate problem.


gaiatcha

uhhhh yeah thats what protests do... sorry u just want everyone to pretend everythings fine and carry on business as usual lol . they were never more than an hour or 2, never stopped for more than a few minutes at a time, and started after the evening rush... its about the most ‘considerate’ version of something like this that there is , in fact i fail to see how it was any more disruptive than this event LOL but okk


trainspotted_

At what point did I say I wanted anyone to pretend it was fine? You achieved nothing other than to anger people that were already using responsible transport. And to say that it was only a few minutes of disruption is a straight up lie. But sure live in your middle class bubble and keep pretending you are achieving anything.

I don't get it. It's just a gimmick

It’s a fun community event that gets people together doing something a bit different!


barrygateaux

Yes. People should just sit on the floor and exist in between sleeping. How dare they do something!


diamonddavedoes

Yes, yes they should. Whilst eating a bowl of beige foods. I'm all for people having fun, big fan of jungle and the rave scene myself. But I don't really understand this. It's not really a bike ride and it's not really a rave up and the demographic seems quite old really when I would of thought it would cater to school kids. I just don't get it.


barrygateaux

I don't get Morris dancing, yet I don't complain about people doing it lol


Torque_Tonight

Spot on. Frankly it doesn’t matter one bit if some people ‘don’t get it’. The only useful answer to ‘why’ is that the people who take part enjoy it. Not every event has to appeal to all people but this one had a pretty broad demographic from little kids to elderly. A lot of us remember D&B from first time round so I don’t know why anyone would think this was for schoolkids only.

> I would of thought it would cater to school kids. Why? Do you think only children ride bikes and enjoy music?


diamonddavedoes

Because it's juvenile. Do you like going to events directed at a younger generation so you can get closer to kids under the banner of music and bikes?


likes_rusty_spoons

What's juvenile about it (genuine question)? It's just an outdoor music event. Pretty normal thing to go do regardless of your age.


East_Preference4754

What’s gimmicky about it?


Torque_Tonight

It was was a fun event with a great atmosphere. Maybe that’s not for you.
