Now that weather is getting better I am looking to ride more. Perchance I heard about Critical Mass from a friend, so I looked it up online. Seems to be a popular and polarized event (like everything else in the US). There are many enthusiasts who raves about it and many nay-sayers who wish it is obliterated into oblivion.
Wikipedia even has an article on the conflicts. Interestingly, it is not a motorists vs cyclists divide but with people on both side of the fence. I really like the idea of not having to watch out for danger every milli second of my commute but can see why the motorist are frustrated.
What was your experience like with Critical Mass?
