Our November ride started out with a really good size crowd. The weather could not have been nicer even if it had been summer! Chicago go figure. We did have at least one map. I was asked at 11:00 on Thursday night if we were going to ride my Freeway Fright route. I explained that it would only work with some day light or the drivers could not see us. So we did have a ride that ended at a restaurant in Pilsen. I for one tried to steer the Mass towards the Magnificent Mile. On the Shoppers Special ride earlier in the day it was observed that the streets were packed with impressionable eyes. To many of us this seemed like a very logical place to Critical Mass. It seems as though most in our group are more interested in a destination than the journey so we ended up being shanghaied (again) of into the hinterlands. I truly feel that we could do just fine with no map at all. Xerocracy on the fly if you will. Many of us felt that we missed a golden opportunity to spread the word to the Autobound.
