CMI Critical Mass

When you're a bicyclist sometimes it feels like you're all alone out there in a sometimes dangerous world of cars,trucks and other motor vehicles. Ever wonder what it would be like if the bikes made the cars feel alone?

Critical Mass is when bicyclists get together and ride together to see what it might be like if the streets of our cities were more friendly to bicycles. When bicyclists ride together we're hard to ignore or dismiss.

Critical Mass is an organized coincidence. There are no leaders, nobody is the organizer and nobody is in charge. Each person participates in Critical Mass for her or his own reasons. The thing that unites Critical Mass riders is our love for bikes!
