Critical Mass

Someone suggested I start a discussion about critical mass at this site. I've only participated in one ride ever thus far, but have been reading about it for some time. While this is a complicated issue, for now I'll submit the following links for discussion. It has to do with a February 2006 ruling by a judge in NYC denying an injunction whereby the City would prevent Critical Mass from ever taking place:

Critical mass

Rode one in Boone less than a year ago. We had a few cars get pulled for passing a pack of cyclist on a double yellow line. I'd say Charlotte is in need of a mass ride, but not uptown that would be meaningless. It would have to be on a main stretch of road where conjestion gets heavy like 51, or part of providence.

I've ridden in Critical Masses in SF. A lot different environment obviously, but also a lot of fun.
