This is beautiful. I've never been very enamored with the tactics used by Critical Mass, they tend to be counter productive.

I hope they do this sort of thing in my 'hood. I will follow up. It would sure be nice to read the papers after one hot summer weekend to find that there were no shootings, no murders and no mayhem in the city. Some types of excitement I can do without.

I'd encourage you to join one of these rides even if it's not in your neighborhood--one of my favorite things about them is the chance to see parts of the city I rarely get to.
