Critical Mass
Posted by Jonathan Maus (Editor) on November 23rd, 2006 at 12:18 am
- What:
- Critical Mass is: - A leaderless, spontanous bike ride through the streets of Portland (and hundreds of other cities worldwide) - A time to ride your bike without fear through busy downtown streets - A great way to meet other bicyclists, pass out fliers, learn about other events - A meandering celebration of bicycling - Something different for everyone - Family-friendly - A visionary projection of what our future might look like Critical Mass is not: - Dangerous, violent, threatening, or exclusive - A place to buy, sell, or capitalize - Planned in advance (the route taken) - A race to the finish You will want to have a white front light and red rear light / reflector in order to avoid getting a citation. If you ride to antagonize motorists, please choose another time / place, some of us have worked very hard to reduce and mellow the police presence.
