Who is up for cycling to #cccamp2019 ?
I'm searching for co-bikers to do (a bit of) the way together.

And then by chance I met the person who designed the Critical Mass Karlsruhe's logo, Steffen. I commented on his cool t-shirt, got talking and so on :).
Such a nice way to see a city - joining the monthly Critical Mass cycle ride :).
Am in Karlsruhe for a CCC gathering, taking place in an art&media centre. Next to some of the artworks there's a flyer, meant for the techies in the area. "Please don't hack it." This piece is made of PVC and air, two huge pillows. Am trying to imagine the hack :).
