Critical Mass is a vision of a happy, bike-friendly world replacing our polluted, congested roads, a protest for better cycling facilities and against car culture, a mobile paean to bicycling�s joys, a merry ride downtown and through the neighborhoods with friends, and more � all rolled into one convenient monthly ride right after work!

Critical Mass is a party on two wheels to celebrate bicycling � a fast, friendly, clean, efficient, healthy, cheap, sensible, and fun way to get around the city.

Critical Mass is not an organization. It is a coincidence. It is a xerocracy. Make your own flyers! Make a route map--maybe it will be followed! Bring a sign, noisemaker, or cupcakes to the ride!

Today Critical Mass occurs in over 100 cities around the world. In the real world, you need only ride a bicycle and you have reduced: air pollution, noise pollution, overconsumptive land usage, marine oilslicks, millions of animal deaths, the incidence of heart disease, the road toll, your monthly transport budget. Your personal gain is nothing compared to the benefits you offer to the greater community.

Location:
