why don't you guys just stick to riding on one lane and not jam up traffic. some ppl need to get to work or maybe other emergencies. if you want motorists to respect cyclist, learn how respect ppl driving cars as well.most of you guys just ride down the street and scream and yell and act like you own the road.
to critical mass:ask yourself why is there so much negativity towards your group? if you guys are riding properly, sharing the road. i am sure you guys will have more support from ppl.
@whitechamai Well cars are only for the fat an the lazy, and we are trying to send a message that the days of the fat-moblie is out dated so hop on a bike and ride baby-ride.
@Blackwater200 Right...let's see you cycle across the Atlantic. You have failed to answer the question or do you just avoid it cause that's the main idea of this 'cause'; to cause hatred towards your group by pissing people off, just for the heck of it.

@Str4t0sPh3rE First of all, what are you talking about you never asked me a question. Second, the reseason why people do this vary, but the main reseason is that people are sick and tired of all the cars on the road, and folks that drive don't respect cyclist, and are very violent toward cyclist. there is too much smog and traffic on the streets, so we also try to promote people to get out and ride a bike to get in shape and to reduce traffic, and smog for the good of everyone.
@Blackwater200 That is just retarded. You can't ride-baby-ride in the winter snow, or if you commute 40 miles each way to work. It's nice that you can cruise around a physically tiny city with temperate weather most of the time but the reality for most people in the country is that that just isn't an option.
I am born and raised in SF, I have been an avid cyclist for 20 years now. I DO NOT participate in Critical Mass. Why?

I've been watching these videos and miss the glory days of bike riding. Can't wait to buy me a bike soon. Critical Mass = Worldwide Bicycle Brotherhood/Sisterhood.
My only vehicle is a bike. I commute and road race on a bike. Critical Mass riders do not represent bicyclists. They are not advocates for bicyclist's rights. They are doing nothing to promote safety. They are holes, plain and simple. FCM.
@ClockCutter Exactly...look at these people. I would bet 9/10 only ride a bike during these lame demostrations. They use this to have something to twitter about or put up cool facebook photos of them "taking back the streets" on thier Toys R Us pos bike. Just please stop..please you are doing nothing but damage to those of us that avidly enjoy bicycling
I think it's not the most practical way to send a message but it does make people think. I'm not sure of any other approach that would have the same impact as a demonstration like this does. It doesn't help that all this does is piss off motorists for one day a month, but then you have to consider that it is only ONE day a month. The way I see it the more people see bikes and think about bikes the better, whether it be positive or negative.
Yeah I get a little tired when every damn day as I'm walking home from work on the SIDEWALK I practically get run over by a bike riding on the SIDEWALK
CM may have been about the environment and health in the beginning, but it's long lost those goals. Now it's about getting as many bikes on the road as possible and disrupting traffic (both vehicle and ped) as possible during the ride through. It's unfortunate that it's now turned disruptive instead of helpful. But, that's what happens when you get far too many bikes on the road. Ultimately, It's going to end in confrontation... and YoutTube proves that with all of the CM videos here.
Well nothing against cyclists, I AM a cyclist, but:
Yeah, I'm tired of Critical Mass; it's largely lost track of the movement's original origins and now seems like mainly a bunch of apathetic punks and airhead hipster poseurs who want to ride in the middle of the road and drink beer and yell, and then expect everyone to treat them like they're heroes or something. Bah....
true, in LB the span of protest riders is going down and just the hipsters are left, but not all of them are purely in it for the hype, some of them still, like me , enjoy the ride
Bikers in the city suck! I just had to yell at one today for cursing at a handicapped ped. These fucks most die!!! Get your ny bullshit cool kid stuff out the way by moving to brooklyn. peace fuck!
Never drive a car and never owned one ,don't need cars. It's about respect not the environment, we all have to live in the city and no group has a right to be assholes for doing something that seven years olds do. Every day i see these fools cut peds off, act like dipshits and almost cause accidents because their more worried about their shoes matching their handlebars than learning how to ride a bike.
actually, at least in Colorado, there is no cyclist catagory in what you described. Cyclists are required to follow the same rules as motorists and are treated as such. I have actually been pulled over for speeding on my bicycle before, luckily I was too young at the time to have a drivers license. Cyclists should stay to the right and cars should be able to pass them like they would slow moving cars.
I love watching bikes getting run over during these critical mass things (without people)
Way too easy. what do we exactly prove here? That we can take over the Embarcadero? Please. Critical Mass on an LA Freeway is the purest and most effective expression of what this supposed to signify. Look it up.

BL Palmer; "nobody is talking about a group assult on a driver".
We aren't? Looking at the videos, of CM anarchist groups, it would appear that is precisely what happens. Surrounding elderly people, women, familys in cars, cursing at them, threatening them, damaging their cars. Changing reality to substantiate your POV might work amongst other liberals/anarchist-- not me.
I'm simply telling you what we do at a Critical Mass ride. We simply ride through the streets, that's it! Critical Mass is a peaceful event. I disagree with any cyclist or driver who isn't peaceful. We get police escorts to protect us from people like you, not because of us riding through the streets. Also, we get support from most drivers.
Every time I have called you out on something, you have had nothing to say except trying to talk about your own situation/context.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
So much for the Golden Rule eh? So, based on your response, I shouldn't slow down and move over for a bicyclist on the road? What biker is threatening me to the point where I would squash them? When a group verbally assaults me and begins damaging my property, that's when Your response clearly shows where you are coming from. You could care less about safety and consideration for bicyclist. You are about intimidation and control and satiating your hatred.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
You let them commit the felony? Felony? Better check the law and the courts. If you are involved in an accident and feel you are in danger from the other driver (rider), you have a right to leave to a safer area. You must call the police and return to the scene when they arrive.
Grab my car dude, I'm squashing your ass and anyone that threatens me. I'll call the police and return to watch them scape your ass up. Then, I will claim I felt my life was in danger and walk. You dillusional twit!
First, we can all tell that you are really tough! Honestly, lets talk about what little substance you actually wrote. Have you ever heard of "cyclist intimidation"? We get crap from people all the time on the road. You people have no respect for others. You will get so angry that you will use your vehicle to commit an assult, which, YES, is a felony. Nobody is talking about an accident where the cyclist is at fault. You are simply declaring your own ignorance.
By the way, the "cyclist intimidation" I speak of, which amounts to serious assults on cyclists every year, is read coming straight out of your reply. Really, your reply is comical. It sounds funny, we really laughed! I mean, what biker is threatening you to the point where you are squashing them? I also like how you have your whole story all ready, very smart. You are a joke! Seriously, I don't care about you in your car, so you shouldn't care about me on my bike.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
I don't care who's fault it is. A person has the right to flee an accident if they feel threatened. No different than accidently hitting a crack dealer, a motorcyclist, a car full of gang bangers or any member of a group that then surrounds your car and begins threatening you. I have had $1550.00 damage done to my car when a bicyclist ran a red light. I have run over people when my car was swarmed by rioters. I have punched out two teens for threatening me in a road rage incident.

The intent of my first rsponse was to show you that you are naive. I have met people like you before. So self righteous until reality hits. One day, you will meet a person that will run over (in a panic or rage) a bunch of you. Or, get out of their car and pull out a gun. Maybe thats what you want. Maybe that will get the self attention you crave. But, people WILL be dead and lives WILL be ruined. The tactics of intimidation CM uses will get someone killed. It's not IF-- it's WHEN.
I don't understand where you are going with your comments.
I originally said that when critical mass "swams" traffic, you having to wait for us to pass by, forcing you to sit in traffic. Who is talking about cyclists surrounding cars and threatening drivers for no reason? That is all we do at critical mass. The problem is people like you who don't like that and the assults usually come from the driver, experiencing road rage. What isn't clear about that?
I've changed my thoughts on Critical Mass, with alot of the riders breaking traffic laws and just being jerks. I believe that cyclists and drivers of motor vehicles should respect eachother, and that is not what Critical Mass promotes. So, I'm sorry to you and to those who have been disrespected. I'm still a cyclist, but not one who wants to disrespect others.
Cyclists don't contribute money to roads, like vehicle registration and gas taxes. Therefore, us cyclists should not get in the way of motor traffic. Rather, we should ride on bike paths or in bike lanes, often considered park space, riding off of the roads and away from motor traffic. Roads are serious business and no place for anything but motor vehicles.

Critical morons! I eat and sleep mtn biking. I want nothing to do with these idiots. You want rights on the road? Start paying insurance and registration fees.
This is a demonstration! Obviously it's not the way cyclists should go around all the time. You're stupid if you can't realize this. Yes, if it was a normal situation, and not a demonstration, they would all be riding closer, not spreaded all about the street ¬¬

They bill themselves as the rescuers of Our Mother the Earth, but with all the methane gas and CO2 they produce, they are contributing more toward global warming than if they had driven up-to-date smaller automobiles. To each her own, however.
I love Critical Mass, the only thing I wish would happen, is they obey the traffic signals and stay on their side of the road. It's a bit heart stopping when you're driving and a bunch of bicyclists come towards you in your lane.
I find it interesting that people hate cyclists so much, and they see them so extremely rarely, that all the passerbys are shitting themselves with rage and confusion. They're just people on bikes. Get over it.
ok............you are a sick little fuck. just shut the fuck up idiot because what you just said happens to one of the most fucked up things I've heard in a long time.
WTF you talking about? Ride on your fking bike lane and leave the other lanes for what they were intended for, cars, you ho! If this shit was in europe, not only you'd get your fking ass kicked and beat to the curb, but runned over and left for dead.
If that's the case then bikes need to obey those laws. Stop running red lights, stop riding in crosswalks (you are not pedestrian), stop at stop signs, etc. My problem with cyclists is that they think they are entitled to do whatever they please whenever they please with no regard to other road users. I hear this argument all the time, usually shouted at me after skidding to a stop because someone just rode through a red light or stop sign. You do not get to have your cake and eat it too.
I hate these fleas with a fervor that's hard to describe. I had the misfortune to be in the city on a Friday when these criminals were out harassing the public. They wouldn't let us make a left hand turn for over 45 minutes. Next time I'm bringing a bat.
Share the road? I would have loved to share the fucking road, but I couldn't as there were thousands of assclowns on bikes not letting a handicapped woman (who can't ride a damn bike) make a left hand turn! I don't think you've actually seen a CM in San Francisco. Those people are horrible. Rude, obnoxious, petulant little turds. I was trying to be nice to them at first but after half an hour, my goodwill was gone.
And cyclists would love to share the road with motorists if it weren't for their tendency to drive like assholes, throw things out the window, talk on cell phones and generally endanger lives. Critical Mass isn't about making you appreciate bikes; It's about making you aware of bikes. Mission accomplished. Drive safely.
So you're going to punish everyone for the misdeeds of a few? I agree with you that the majority of American drivers can't drive for shit. I was blessed to live in Germany for 7 years where people know how to drive. The highways are spotless and it's illegal to talk on a cellphone. But I still wouldn't hold up traffic for hours and damage peoples cars to make a point. Wow, for someone who wants me to coddle them and their rights, you sure don't give a shit about anyone elses.
So you're willing to blame EVERYONE for the misdeeds of a few? I've done a few CM's and intentional car damage is rare and frowned upon. As for holding up traffic, tough shit. Traffic jams happen everyday for a variety of reasons. It's just that typically you don't know if it's a car wreck ahead, a train stopped on the tracks, or a closed street somewhere in the system. You waiting in your car for a bit longer is a small price to pay for improved cyclist awareness.
A bit longer. 10 minutes, sure. 45 minutes, I want to see to see bicyclists in severe pain. It's ok, I know now when they happen and should I ever have to be in the city when one is going on I will be prepared. The cyclists were egging us on, trying to get us to come into the street. Telling us they were going to destroy my car. Don't play innocent, these "treehuggers" don't have peace in mind, they have violence. Which is good because so do I and bitches don't come meaner than me.
Well if I saw them I would drive the opisite way down the road at them. Im sure they could be doing better things than holding up a city.. Loosers >__>
And they could at least use the bikes for somthing good - or recycle the bikes to make decent ones - ei BMX's
I'm jumping in mid-conversation here, but the few times I've gone to critical mass there was heavy police presence that led the way for the group. This in my mind associates critical mass with any other public demonstration which is allowed due to freedom of speech. Sure, there are some fringe characters that may go against the general message, but I don't think that they should discolor the communal point.
On July 25, 2008 in Seattle, a mob of Critical Mass bicyclists assault a motorist.
"a man and a woman in a Subaru station wagon tried to pull out of a parking spot. But some of the bicyclists blocked them, sat on the car and began banging on the vehicle...One biker punched the driver through an open window and another used a knife to slash the tires. When the driver got out of the car a male suspect struck him with an unknown object in the back of the head..."
From now on Im going to go out of my way to run over or at least hit as many liberal bicycle riders as I can. My goal is not to kill anybody but to break a few bones and put a little fear into them and teach them they cant run around evading the responsibilities the rest of America has in dealing with high gas prices and car expenses. You cant have some buying, some not. Everybody should know what high gas prices feel like. Im just going to do it when no cameras are on.
what if they're an honest person with a job who just doesn't want to throw so much money away when its perfectly possible to get wherever they need to go by riding a bicycle? thats what i do.
First of all, I'm a cyclist. But I have to say, critical mass is a very immature way to advocate cycling. The amount of congestion you people create during your rides creates *far* more polution than had you not decided to creat gridlock over the span of multiple city blocks.
It's all quite hipocritical, and downright stupid. Stop creating a bad image for good people who want to commute with bicycles, while also maintaining the traffic laws.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
I wanna see them try this shit in Compton. Soon this gabby fuck will be singling out black people. Fuck your bike get off the fucking road. Your pointless protest doesn't accomplish anything except make people want to kill your dumb asses.
The bicycle is now a political statement and apart from the angry SUV driver I have encountered, it is the cyclist who has yet to realise the political reality of what they do everyday who has the most scorn for CM. CM'ers are not all leftist, we have had mayors and political leaders of all stripe take part in the mass.
It's ok to be angry at a bunch of people blocking the road with their bikes, are you equally angry at people blocking the road with their cars ?
are you fucking stupid? assholes blocking the roads with their faggot ass bikes are not the same as cars. Cars want to go but can't. You faggots just take your sweet ass time. You can't even manage to go the speed limit on most roads therefore impeding traffic. I hope someone tries this shit in Atlanta. The rednecks here will run there ass over.
What's with all these hostile douchebags against bikers!? The DMV should really set out a psychological analysis before considering applicable licenses. I almost got hit by sum fuckhead the other day because he wouldn't stay out of the bike lane...
I hate Critical Mass because they have no respect for the general public. They shout and yell at people trying to cross the street or get into the BART and MUNI.
I don't even think they really know what they are advocating.
we know we don't own the road, but the point is to raise the awareness that we use and pay for the roads too. In Vancouver we say, "we're not causing traffic; we are traffic."
The problem with critical mass is that it is probably the most retroactive demonstration I have ever seen, cyclists fighting for their rights to the road, completely understandable, but these demonstrations just draw attention to these hippie douchebags that want to be seen doing this more than they actually want to do this. They think they own the road, we cyclists have a right to the side of the road, about five inches/bike lane, unless we can keep up with traffic. Not hard to understand.
Demand respect for bicyclists by blocking traffic, disobeying traffic laws and being complete fuckers on the road

Critical Mass cyclists should need a permit for these parades. Having a permit means:
Your drivers license gets revoked.
You get a fine if you are seen driving or being driven in car or bus (including ambulances and hearses).
You are forbidden to go shopping, since all goods are transported by motor vehicles.
Your salary gets adjusted to the level of Soviet Russia in the 60's (Great example of a almost carless economy).
If you want less cars, arrange free public transportation.

My only vehicle is a bike. I commute and road race on a bike. Critical Mass riders do not represent bicyclists. They are not advocates for bicyclist's rights. They are doing nothing to promote safety. They are holes, plain and simple. FCM.

@ClockCutter Exactly...look at these people. I would bet 9/10 only ride a bike during these lame demostrations. They use this to have something to twitter about or put up cool facebook photos of them "taking back the streets" on thier Toys R Us pos bike. Just please stop..please you are doing nothing but damage to those of us that avidly enjoy bicycling

I think it's not the most practical way to send a message but it does make people think. I'm not sure of any other approach that would have the same impact as a demonstration like this does. It doesn't help that all this does is piss off motorists for one day a month, but then you have to consider that it is only ONE day a month. The way I see it the more people see bikes and think about bikes the better, whether it be positive or negative.

And as for CM not letting pedestrians cross the street in front of them, that's gotta fucking end. Like now.
As a movement, Critical Mass is fighting fire with fire. It's low-scale terrorism really.
metemi 2 years ago
CM may have been about the environment and health in the beginning, but it's long lost those goals. Now it's about getting as many bikes on the road as possible and disrupting traffic (both vehicle and ped) as possible during the ride through. It's unfortunate that it's now turned disruptive instead of helpful. But, that's what happens when you get far too many bikes on the road. Ultimately, It's going to end in confrontation... and YoutTube proves that with all of the CM videos here.

actually, at least in Colorado, there is no cyclist catagory in what you described. Cyclists are required to follow the same rules as motorists and are treated as such. I have actually been pulled over for speeding on my bicycle before, luckily I was too young at the time to have a drivers license. Cyclists should stay to the right and cars should be able to pass them like they would slow moving cars.

BL Palmer; "nobody is talking about a group assult on a driver".
We aren't? Looking at the videos, of CM anarchist groups, it would appear that is precisely what happens. Surrounding elderly people, women, familys in cars, cursing at them, threatening them, damaging their cars. Changing reality to substantiate your POV might work amongst other liberals/anarchist-- not me.
BTW
it's not "assulted", it's assaulted.

I'm simply telling you what we do at a Critical Mass ride. We simply ride through the streets, that's it! Critical Mass is a peaceful event. I disagree with any cyclist or driver who isn't peaceful. We get police escorts to protect us from people like you, not because of us riding through the streets. Also, we get support from most drivers.

First, we can all tell that you are really tough! Honestly, lets talk about what little substance you actually wrote. Have you ever heard of "cyclist intimidation"? We get crap from people all the time on the road. You people have no respect for others. You will get so angry that you will use your vehicle to commit an assult, which, YES, is a felony. Nobody is talking about an accident where the cyclist is at fault. You are simply declaring your own ignorance.

By the way, the "cyclist intimidation" I speak of, which amounts to serious assults on cyclists every year, is read coming straight out of your reply. Really, your reply is comical.

I don't care who's fault it is. A person has the right to flee an accident if they feel threatened. No different than accidently hitting a crack dealer, a motorcyclist, a car full of gang bangers or any member of a group that then surrounds your car and begins threatening you. I have had $1550.00 damage done to my car when a bicyclist ran a red light. I have run over people when my car was swarmed by rioters. I have punched out two teens for threatening me in a road rage incident.

Who is talking about cyclists surrounding cars and threatening drivers for no reason? That is all we do at critical mass. The problem is people like you who don't like that and the assults usually come from the driver, experiencing road rage. What isn't clear about that?
BenjaminLeePalmer 2 years ago 4
To Wozerd:
Refering to your last three comments:
Your first comment says you would fight back if you are being assulted. We would all do that, but nobody is talking about a group assult on a driver.
You second comment says you would leave an accident if you were being assulted. We would all do that, but again nobody is talking about that.
Your third comment says you would blame the victims, in this case the CM cyclists, if someone got shot or intentionally run over by a driver.

I'm still a cyclist, but not one who wants to disrespect others.

@ftcsfc Thanks for the great reply.
Cyclists don't contribute money to roads, like vehicle registration and gas taxes. Therefore, us cyclists should not get in the way of motor traffic. Rather, we should ride on bike paths or in bike lanes, often considered park space, riding off of the roads and away from motor traffic. Roads are serious business and no place for anything but motor vehicles.

If that's the case then bikes need to obey those laws.

I hear this argument all the time, usually shouted at me after skidding to a stop because someone just rode through a red light or stop sign. You do not get to have your cake and eat it too.

So you're going to punish everyone for the misdeeds of a few? I agree with you that the majority of American drivers can't drive for shit. I was blessed to live in Germany for 7 years where people know how to drive. The highways are spotless and it's illegal to talk on a cellphone. But I still wouldn't hold up traffic for hours and damage peoples cars to make a point. Wow, for someone who wants me to coddle them and their rights, you sure don't give a shit about anyone elses.
julesenheimer 3 years ago 4
So you're willing to blame EVERYONE for the misdeeds of a few? I've done a few CM's and intentional car damage is rare and frowned upon. As for holding up traffic, tough shit. Traffic jams happen everyday for a variety of reasons. It's just that typically you don't know if it's a car wreck ahead, a train stopped on the tracks, or a closed street somewhere in the system. You waiting in your car for a bit longer is a small price to pay for improved cyclist awareness.
cabarto 3 years ago
A bit longer. 10 minutes, sure. 45 minutes, I want to see to see bicyclists in severe pain. It's ok, I know now when they happen and should I ever have to be in the city when one is going on I will be prepared. The cyclists were egging us on, trying to get us to come into the street. Telling us they were going to destroy my car. Don't play innocent, these "treehuggers" don't have peace in mind, they have violence. Which is good because so do I and bitches don't come meaner than me.

I never knew bicycle awareness involved running red lights, holding up traffic(including emergency vehicles), and instigating fights.
You want to promote bicycle awarness you have to set a good example. I cycle and my friends, family, and others take notice, and do the same.

I'm jumping in mid-conversation here, but the few times I've gone to critical mass there was heavy police presence that led the way for the group. This in my mind associates critical mass with any other public demonstration which is allowed due to freedom of speech. Sure, there are some fringe characters that may go against the general message, but I don't think that they should discolor the communal point.

First of all, I'm a cyclist. But I have to say, critical mass is a very immature way to advocate cycling. The amount of congestion you people create during your rides creates *far* more polution than had you not decided to creat gridlock over the span of multiple city blocks.
It's all quite hipocritical, and downright stupid. Stop creating a bad image for good people who want to commute with bicycles, while also maintaining the traffic laws.
