With the logo of a woman kicking a car? I suppose it could be interpreted as a woman "kicking her car aside" to ride her bicycle instead, but, with the history that Critical Mass has of violence towards drivers it seems like quite the double standard. I'm all for raising driver awareness of cyclists, but the vast majority of drivers don't deserve to have their cars kicked (or scratched, or mirrors ripped off). I hope it's reserved for the ones that TRULY deserve it. “It’s not an exuse to be violent towards motorists but an attempt to raise driver awareness that cyclists have rights to the road as well.”
