What every happened to the 2nd Friday of the month Chicago Critical Mass Happy Hour?

In case of misinterpretation: "brought many of us to the fray" is a good thing, simply means got us involved.

That process of spotting and encouraging potentials is part of what brought many of us to the fray. I'm really happy with the recent rounds of newbies. I've said for many moons that Dubi's a candidate.
Chuck may have a southside route, unused from a prior month.

Yeah I do. Will be reaching out to Joe now.

I don't see how a CCM ride would be very effective in protesting the wars...even chants and what not rarely make it very far in the mass as it is so huge.

Perhaps next month could just be a ride to interesting places? Maybe ride West and go through Garfield park and end at humboldt park? Heck, maybe we should just end in Jackson park. I'd like to check it out.

I really don't think that I am up for making a map or leading this one as I'm a little burnt out on it and am kind of feeling a lot of annoying at many participants in the ride. I need a good, easy going CCM experience to rejuvenate myself.

If anyone who would like to lead the ride would like to get some balloons for their helmet, just let me know.

So, chainlink... How the hell do we get the word out about the contest?

Sorry it's not a happy theme, but I'm getting REEEEEEEEEEALLLLLLLY (timesinfinitysquared) tired and ashamed of the wars. I'd even venture that any large scale opportunity for action, not used to that end, makes the participants complicit in not ending them. There is no greater priority. Yes, CCM=not political, but isn't ending wars beyond politics, and more about being evolved sane humans? How about a hybrid idea such as an "underwear for peace" ride.
