Critical Mass Los Angles - Bikers on Hollywood and Highland 7.25.08

A hundred people on bicycles stop traffic at the intersection of Hollywood Blvd and Highland on a busy Friday night.

cri*tical mass, n. an amount necessary or sufficient to have a significant effect or to achieve a result. [1940-45]

The last Friday of every month in over 100 cities around the world, cyclists, roller bladers, boarders, etc...come together for a festive rolling celebration. It's an organized coincidence with no leaders and no set agenda. People come together for many reasons, to assert their right to cleaner air, less congestion, safer roads, and to celebrate and ride in solidarity with other cyclists and like minded individuals. Celebrate this month with Critical Mass!

I admire the effort and the concern, but this caused congestion AND, having cars sit at lights like this causes more harmful emissions. thats why more towns are starting should use roundabouts...
