Another month, another amazing night with the community. Different bikes, different backgrounds, different ages, all coming together for one ride through Bakersfield.

Critical Mass is more than just riding bikes. It’s about meeting people, building friendships, creating memories, and showing that our streets are for everybody.

Thank you to everyone who came out, brought the energy, and helped make the ride what it is. See you all next month at Beach Park. 🚲

Critical Mass Bakersfield is rolling strong.
It's a ride for everyone, families, first-timers, commuters, and riders of all kinds, coming together to take up space and be seen. We move as one through the city, showing that bikes belong here too. It’s about community, visibility, and reminding people that every rider out there is a real person.
If you’ve ever thought about coming out, this is your sign.

Critical Mass Bakersfield, just people coming together to ride. Families, friends, new faces, and familiar ones all sharing the road and the moment. Different bikes, different backgrounds, one ride. Showing up, being seen, and building a stronger cycling community every time we roll.

Critical Mass Team.

The ones holding it all together behind the scenes. Keeping the ride tight, calling out cars, blocking when needed, and watching out for everyone.

This ride doesn’t work without you. Straight up.

Nothing but respect for everyone who shows up, puts on a vest, and looks out for the group. Volunteering your time to keep people safe isn’t small,it’s everything.

Appreciate you. Every single ride.

Something a little different for the month of May… 🌺Stay tuned.

Critical Mass Bakersfield Update 🚲
This month we’re heading to the northeast side of Bakersfield for a 16-mile ride with about 500 feet of elevation, the most climbing we’ve done yet.
Be ready for some uphill sections, and remember… what goes up must come down. Make sure your brakes are working properly and your bike is in good condition, because there will be some downhill riding on this route.

As always, bring your helmet and lights, and please ride within your skill level. We’ll keep it together and take plenty of stops to make sure nobody gets left behind.

I don’t usually do this, but I included the route at the end of the video for anyone who wants a preview — stick around to check it out.
See you Friday.

Critical Mass Bakersfield – Community Outreach
This month we caught up with Chris from I’m.still.rolling.
A true commuter in every sense.
20 miles a day.
Six days a week.
Rain or shine.
Doing it all on a fixed-gear track bike.
Riding through some of the fastest, most unforgiving streets in Bakersfield—holding his line, moving with traffic, and showing up day after day.
No shortcuts. No excuses.
Just consistency.
Just commitment.
This is what it really looks like to choose the bike every day.
And when you see someone like this out on the road, understand what you’re looking at.
That’s not just a cyclist. That’s a person.
Put the phone down.
Give them space.
Share the road.
