MIAMI (WSVN) - Miami Critical Mass, a cycling event that brings locals together to ride bikes through the streets of Miami, is heading south to the streets of Little Havana and Coral Gables, this Friday.

This Friday, cyclists who tag along with Miami Critical Mass will be riding through Riverside, Little Havana, West Flagler, Coral Gables, Miracle Mile, Coral Way, Shenandoah, Calle Ocho, East Little Havana and Downtown Miami.

The total distance for Friday’s ride starts at 7:15 p.m. and is approximately 11 miles, which according to Miami Critical Mass, is one of their shorter rides and will be great for beginners who have been interested in riding along.

Riders should be aware beforehand of street construction on W. Flagler Street, where only two lanes will be open. Critical Mass advises those riding to obey all road closed signage and not ride on any closed lanes.

Police also advise residents and those who plan on traveling to the area to plan accordingly, since the event will affect traffic for roughly two hours.

Critical Mass occurs on the last Friday of every month.
