Critical Mass

The theory is that when a city has a certain amount of bikers... it has to take them seriously.
A twice a year event... but I will not go into details, which anyone can find here. I always try to go, as I am a major advocate of alternative transportation (mainly Public Transport, walking, roller-skating, and biking...
Besides it is great fun (except if one goes with P. which I did this year for Chris's sake. BAD IDEA. Will not do it again.).
But here are some pictures:
This is as it looked like when people started to arrive at the end of the route... When the last one arrived there was no place to sit down, not only in this part of the park, but all around. I really like the moment when a few tens of thousand of people raise their bikes to the sky.

My son on his bike:

Me with mine... Pic was shot by said son :-)))

And these were also shot by said son... obviously since he was begging me to go with his dad he also wanted him in the pics...

I do have to say for P. that he did helped me with my bike's tires (otherwise I wouldn't be able to go). But that was all the nice things I can say. Well that is just a reminder that I didn't left him for nothing...
