p>Since Return of the Scorcher, we have seen a number of bike documentaries on the theme of Critical Mass. Some, such as San Francisco’s The Truth Is Out and, more recently, Still We Ride from New York City, are simply an attempt to highlight police crackdowns. You Never Bike Alone is much more than just another Critical Mass documentary. It’s a well constructed, historical sequence of events spanning the last 15 years of bicycle advocacy and activism in Vancouver, BC and surely just the first chapter of a colourful history of bike culture community development.
