Brooklyn Critical Mass: Feel the Love

Here's an anomaly that runs counter to the trend in many major U.S. cities: a Critical Mass bike ride, without incidents or arrests. And in Brooklyn it has been going on for three years!

Why? No one really seems to have a solid answer. But it was nice to see the NYPD getting along with about 150 cyclists venturing out to celebrate their right to the road. I mean come on, it's only for a few hours per month.

    Colin, you're an animal! Look at your smilin' mug, right there on Streetfilms! Are we having fun yet, indeed.

    I'm glad to see a Critical Mass with such a positive vibe. I'd definitely be willing to participate in such cooperative, non-violent celebration of bicycling. Props to both the cops and to the riders for making it so.

    And mostly, hooray for what looks like a fun, community supported ride!
