Critical Mass: Riding The Ride

I’ll be the first to admit that a lot of folks in San Francisco enjoy talking talk, but not are not inclined to leave their enviable cafe seat (the one in the window) and latte to walk the walk.

But the good news is there are a lot of folks who do ride the ride. Critical Mass, that is: the monthly movement — of bicycles in the street — that promotes bicycling and bicyclists’ right to share the road.  I couldn’t find an actual site for Critical Mass, so your best bet is to search “critical mass” and the name of the city you’re interested in to see if there’s a movement near you. In San Francisco, also check out the San Francisco Bicycle Coalition.

This is yet another reason I love living in San Francisco. It’s got its lovers, it’s got its fighters… and they have each other’s back. Does it get any simpler than that, people. No, it doesn’t.

Why I always carry my camera: You just never know when you’re going to stumble upon a major march on Market Street, during the 1 hour that week the rain actually let up. This one was on March 4: The eve of the Prop 8 hearing. If you don’t know, Prop 8 was an amendment that passed in November to
