I was on the trail that day - riding a tandem with my GF none the less. We got close to the turn where most videos are shot when a policeman on a loud speaker spouts off:
"You, cyclist, get off your bike and turn around. You can't go that way"
Ok guy, we don't have to get off to turn this thing around and I'll see for myself if I can't go. We decided to pull off before that point but now I am thinking: "Damn, that could of been us on the newsreel with our goofy tandem"!
