Ahhh the fairytales of politics.

I suspect critical mass will have the same political effect for
the cause that most other disruptors have had in the past.

Too bad a negative image is going to get tacked on to people on
bicycles, and even worse, that the people who will be promoting
that negative public image will be a group allegedly promoting
bike use.

Clearly, anyone wanting to ride a bike to work must be a Commie!
