Glad to read Critical Mass being acknowledged. When she lived in the city, my sister (who has never owned a car and took up cycling as her main form of transport while living in LA) was a regular participant.
I live in Florida, so the chances that cities would clear local traffic for cyclists is more of a moon shot than the moon shot ... until no one can affort gas for cars any more and they invent reflective Spandex for cyclists beating the heat. We can only pray for such new equilibriums ...
Ah. Here in Vancouver they do like to put in bike routes wherever they can, often involving a lot of squeezing for scarce space, or calling what was a normal shoulder a bike lane. Politics, of course, and ensuing tensions, but it makes a difference, arguably. Thanks for commenting, Brendan!

Deflation and implosion

Thanks for futurists Art.
You're welcome, Richard! A bit of Cubism mixed in there, too.

Love what it asks us to consider.
Thanks Alan,
