Darn, wish I could be there...
***Ride to Critical Mass***
Friday, April 30 at 6:30 p.m.

Critical Mass & Special After party
Friday, April 30, 7 p.m.
Union Square Park North
Spring is here, so get your bikes or skates and let's hit the streets.
We can all be proud because biking is up 20% in NYC and will continue, in large part because of you and your participation in Critical Mass, which has increased bicycle exposure and has altered NYC's infrastructure in a positive way. According to Chris Carlson, statistician and author of the book Critical Mass, in every city that the Critical Mass achieves the crucial number to make it a success, biking numbers increase all around. This year it's NYC's turn.
The amazing thing is that everybody is working together, from young to old, from punks to yuppies; we're on a variety of bikes: road, mountain, beater, folder, chopper, and fixed-gear.
The after party will be at the NYC Bike Show. Music, valet bike parking, and dancing with your bike in the Chunk Pleasure Disco Rink, brought to you by the amazing Chunk 666.
Critical Mass, an international event held in more than 200 cities around the world, occurs on the last Friday of every month when bicyclists spontaneously come together to ride the ordinarily car-clogged streets of their cities. Critical Mass focuses on the rights of bicyclists and the rights of pedestrians on their own streets. It also brings attention to the deteriorating quality of life--starting with the toxic levels of air and noise pollution--that cars create for cities.
