Papa Wheelie and Son, by Doug McLaren

While I'm not 100% sure if he was the YOUNGEST Critical Mass participant, I'm almost certain he was the most spirited. Besides a few pushes up the hills by dad he tore up the entire route from the UT West Mall to the fountain, all the way out to Red Bud and then back to the capitol, laughing and smiling the entire trip. I love seeing the next generation representing on the bikes with this much enthusiasm. Makes me worry a little less about the future of things.
