cruising boston/cambridge

I've actually been wanting to do this for a while now, but like most things, I get so intimidated thinking that only cool people can do these things, and for some reason I don't usually include myself in that category. But last Friday we did it, we rode in Critical Mass! Basically it's were bikers meet up once a month and take to the streets to celebrate cycling, disrupt traffic, and for once feel safe riding down mass ave. I would have to say it's the best way to see boston.


I was a little worried that Jonas would be done with the whole thing after about 5 mins, so I spent the whole day talking up the "bike parade", and what do you know we rolled through the north end and ran into an actual parade for St. Anthony. We just fell inline behind the tubas. Although I think his favorite part was when we went through the tunnels that go under harvard campus. With people yelling, bells ringing, and drums echoing I rode by him and his smile was so big I would have given anything to have gotten a picture.
