It's a celebration along the lines of Take Back the Night. I wanted to have fun and be funny, but I am also promoting bike use as opposed to fossil fuel reliance. If you want this to be about riding with a group of other cyclists, that's your prerogative. And if you just want this to be an opportunity to dress up in silly clothing and spread your wings, that's fine, too. Seacoast Critical Mass at UNH has certainly captured these feelings.
Ferry puts it all in perspective.
I felt empowered and safe to be able to ride along the road and talk with friends. Usually you have to go single file, spaced apart on 155. To be able to ride on 155 and not worry about it was a treat.
