I'm amazed those dip**** anchors could avoid discussing Alec Baldwin, Anna Nicole Smith, and Virginia Teach long enough to comment on Critical Mass.

Two of my friends received tickets at Critical Mass last Friday for taking the lane. Never mind the fact that the police escorts were blocking both lanes already... The judge is going to be so pissed when we all show up in court! I'm giddy just thinking about it.


doofo
 
so what did they say
?

That soccer mom has man-hands, she must have been the instigator.


luckycat
 
Nah, the girl in the middle was definitely the instigator. Quite frankly she scares the hell out of me.

quick, some one photoshop the noses of the girls off

The younger girl is going to look JUST LIKE the mother, if it makes you feel any better ;)

dmotoguy

Is it illegal for cyclists there, to take the lane?? I do that all the time, here. Safest way to cycle on roads, and, as far as I know, 100% legal. Never had a cager complain about it, either. If they want they can overtake me easily.

What am I missing?

i just spent a full 30 seconds looking for a video clip! and didn't find one

so its up to you guys

Let me guess--they had some photoshopped picture of Michael Moore and Hilary Clinton riding a tandem at the head of the CM pack?

This just screams: Soccer mom gets PWNED by cyclists.

I'm still not convinced she didn't provoke the attack. I've seen too many soccer moms turned victim out there to think this one isn't just like all the others; A SELFISH LITTLE B-I-T-C-H !

Look harder:
Different stories regarding Critical mass confrontation (http://www.ktvu.com/video/11523434/detail.html)
Outcome of April critical mass: Peaceful (http://www.ktvu.com/video/13215470/detail.html)

I love Fox News. It's hysterical. ;)

Mom? Look more like Grandmother. gg

The video doesn't exist. It was just a joke. It was all made up. Sorry guys.

Huh? Look at post #27 and check out the videos.

Neither of those videos play for me in Opera or Firefox or IE.


Zeuser
 
They work in firefox just fine if you enable scripting.

Two sides to the story... and while the cyclists did themselves no favor by breaking the rear window... what actually did happen? And why doesn't the woman say anything about hitting a cyclist, and where were the police in this issue and why have they not said anything?


randya

they'd all probably look a whole lot healthier if she sold the minivan and put her family on bicycles instead

CM riders seem like terrorist's to me.

^ there's that "T" word again. I guess Bush's brainwashing is more effective that I originally though.

I thought the stories were basically fair. The "Different stories" piece really did give both sides, and the "Peaceful" piece really did describe the ride as peaceful.

And I won't bash the Fox News story without seeing it. What do you think I am, a Fox commentator?

Well that's as bad as believing Dan Rather, or taking political advice from Babs.

This is beginning to highlight a problem in the bike to work, live car free or light, reduced consumption, and environmental awareness lifestyle. It comes with an entire political package. If you disagree on a single point then you have no place in the camp and because you are not driving a 2ton light truck a single Km to get a grease burger then you have no place in the other camp.

Like it or not, most people do, to some degree, care what others think. They are just selective about whose opinion they do care about.

Bicycling needs to separate itself from other political causes in order to advance as something that is independent of politics. A person should not need to care about net dragging in the oceans (although, as I person I think everyone should care) to be part of, and accepted as a member of, the bicycling community.

My father rode his bicycle to work everyday and was a staunch conservative (allowing for strong pacifist tenancies as a result of war experiences) and never felt that the two needed to be connected
