Critical Mass

Well, this was an interesting event, maybe 5,000 bikers showed up to just ride. It was pretty amazing to see the city streets completely shut down due to the mob of bikes, and to think this happens every month. Some of the cars cheered, others were enraged that we were disrupting there comute, Some cars tried to break through and soon found themselves trapped inbetween bikes. I rolled up on a familiy from out of town, there SUV was trapped in the swarm. A woman was standing on the back seat hanging out of the window completely loosing it, freaking out. She kept yelling, "We don't know where to go" Then they ran over someones bike, that didn't work out to well. Cops were cool, they seemed to make there pressence known, but stood back and let the bikers do there thing.

I rode the fixie and as I was grinding away on one of the climbs with my buds, we noticed the CEO of our company just rolled up right next to us...that was pretty cool!

Thats all i have to say about that.
