“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!”

Today we rode through downtown and then over the bridge through Kendall, Central, Harvard, Porter and Davis square. I got pushed off my bike by a pedestrian that was trying to guide a taxi through the bike traffic. He saw me coming and threw his body into me as I rode past him. I got back on and kept riding though. My favorite part was going over the bridge as the sun set. I’m definitely going to be doing this again next month.

Please excuse my poor quality phone photos below while I shakily steered my bike. One day I will master riding without hands. The ones above were taken before the ride began.

“Critical Mass is not an organization. It is a coincidence.”
