There are a couple of CM rides in Iowa: <a href="http://criticalmass.wikia.com/wiki/List_of_rides.

I wish I had taken pics of CM in Albuquerque or Chicago when I lived there, but never did :( But there are a *lot* of pictures on flickr and google images on the topic.

I'm somewhat ambivalent about the dual-purposing of a main thoroughfare primarily for bad-weather and late-night reasons. I never feel safe on a bicycle with higher-speed traffic. And I dislike being sloshed on by passing vehicles in bad weather (rain, snow).
Then again perhaps this is the best way to make people less car-centric. Maybe we should start up Critical Mass in Fairfield!

BTW, both Connor and your younger son (whose name I cannot remember now even though I just met him!) are amazingly curious and have great interpersonal skills. I was quite impressed with them in the 15 minutes I got to meet them. I believe that's a testament to your parenting!

Kids play hockey on the streets of Chicago.Kids play soccer on the streets of New York (ok, Queens, but whatever). I seriously doubt that Fairfield poses more danger than those places. And if it does, kids need to learn to deal with them sooner than later. No?
BTW, I'm not questioning the parental prerogative. But stopping kids from being active, outdoors, and having sun in our woefully short summer seems more criminal and unwarranted than any issue of safety.
