Critical Mass in the dark

By way of reminding you that Critical Mass Durham’s December ride will take place next Thursday (5:35pm, meet at Major), I’ll share some artwork I received this week. But before I do, I want to remind everyone that this will be the first CM since daylight savings ended. So, darkness will fall on our ride. But that’s OK; bring lights! Bring more lights than you need. Light up your ride any way you can. I hear there are battery-powered strings of holiday lights you can pick up at local hardware/retail stores… hint, hint.

Onwards…

Mona Caron, an artist in San Francisco, has been riding in Critical Mass for years. Some of her artwork is inspired by the events, and like any strong cycle, her art work circles back and inspires others to ride. I had seen her art before she contacted me this week, sending along what may be her most famous CM-inspired piece.

Critical Mass, Mona Caron

You can dig more of her illustrations and murals on her website, MonaCaron.com. And if you’re looking, hey Mona. Have fun in São Paulo.
