...this awful state -- sponsored tyranny of the automobile ... dominance on our public roadways will be adjusted for the greater good with a larger group presence, aka Critical Mass, more quickly than with one lonely individual/individualist at a time...In the tradition of strength in numbers (women getting the vote, women owning property, the entire civil rights struggle...) our time has come as bicyclists. Stay together! Join Critical Mass.
