Just get out of your cars, stand next to it and block the lanes if you're stuck. You'll be a pedestrian then and those cyclists riding in btwn cars will have to yield to you. Apparently, thats what my brother did and others got out their cars too. Someone should start up a walk/march that runs through their bike route.

Police say the ride has grown so large they have given up trying to rein in participants, even those breaking rules, such as riding without a helmet or blocking traffic.
This is stupid. So we can break the law when we have a lot of people doing it?

This guy is my fucking hero. Someone who actually had the balls to stand up for himself.

More people need to be like him, or stand up for people like him.

It's stupid they are "warning" motorists to stay away because of this, that's pretty much like the cops saying "Well we can't do 4/5ths of fuck all about it, we give up! Let's go catch us some street racers instead!"
Time for critical mass of street racers!

so if we get say... a big group or gangs to beat up some bystanders the police won't arrest us coz we are too big in numbers?

Time to start a RS robbery group! We can to go store to store and rub them clean and the police won't do a thing about it since we have too many robberies at once for them to handle.

Is very simple. When a protest gets too big and it out of control or beyond the control of the police you simply shut it down.

Seriously why dont they have to pay some kind of insurance or get a license to ride a bike. How are they supposed to keep track of a cyclist who is doing something stupid?

Freaking hippies. Someone needs to take care of them, breaking laws and riding around like the own the street and blocking off traffic.

I think it's cool! I drive purely for pleasure. Been walking and biking to work everyday, just drive on the weekend when I go out of town. Maybe I'll ride a Critical Mass some day.

Actually, what we should do is organize a mass (500+) cars to do 140 down certain highways in a protest of speed limits. Cops can't pull 500 cars over right?

What the motherfucking shit, i could totally end up in that shitty ass fucking situation? wtf , which may result an influence to my career at some point? jesus fuck, i guess i could throw words at him to the point he flips and decides to throw the first punch. Than game on? self defence? fucking gay

fucking hell, drove on robson 2 months ago this mofo decides to zig zag thru traffic , and decides to ride dangerously in between two cars swirls in and out and nearly knocked out my side mirror. I gave him a honk, he turns around and gave me a finger, i obviously yelled at him. Than he attempted to spit on my car and missed. I was in my suit and my dressing shoes while my gf was sitting beside me since we were heading down to C restaurant to celebrate her bday. So he did a u-turns in the front of the intersection and stopped beside my window, i told him it was fucking dangerous for what he did back there. He mummbled some bullshit and gave me a cocky attitude as if ohhh dont worry i can take care myself or some shit like that. Fuck if i wasnt in my suit that day i really wonna rip an new asshole in this guys cocky ass face. I know what he may attempt to do tho, slam his bike or damage my car and run. which is what im afraid of a cyclist to do, bevause its hard to have evidence as well as they have no license plate. Otherwise i really wonna beat the shit out of him.

Fucking hell, cyclist deserves to die...no i dont care what anyone says. Fuck them. Ride a motorcycle or get the fuck out of my way.

This morning coming to work, a fucking cyclist decides to hog up the entire lane riding 15km. Fuck him, ripped thru blowing his ear drum at 8500rpm in 2nd and ended at that.



just who they think they are? the fucking cyclists are riding no more than 20km, what makes them think they have the right to ride one lane and slow everyone down? should scooters (manual one that u run on ur foot), roller bladers, skateboarders all join their cruise and hog up the entire 2 or 3 lanes on the street?

Until bicycles are no longer considered "vehicles" under the law, they have the right to be on the road. It's not easy building dedicated bike paths, but the municipalities are getting there.

However, with that said, I think police should do more to enforce the rules of the road for cyclists. When I see cyclists zip in and out of lanes, they are really taking their lives into their own hands.

Sure they can... sounds pretty easy to me. Once they block off the highway, going to be pretty hard for you to escape.

If bicycles are considered "Vehicles" under the law, then they should have to register and insure their vehicles.

If they were a motor vehicle, then yes. Just like Segways.
