"Critical Mass is a bike ride held on the last Friday of every month in cities around the world where bicyclists and, other self-propelled commuters (i.e. skateboarders) take to the streets en masse. Critical Mass is not led, though it is largely understood to be an effort to promote alternative (non-motorized) modes of transportation and to raise awareness about the safety issues that face commuters using non-motorized forms of transportation when sharing the streets with motor vehicles. Participants enjoy the security and companionship of traveling as a group through city streets. The general philosophy behind the ride is expressed in the widely-used slogan,“We aren't blocking traffic; we are traffic.".. ..
