Years ago I read a book titled "The Magic of Thinking Big" . Since reading that book I've been thinking big. LOL
A mass ride/rally of MBers right through Manhattan with a destination in front of NBC or Fox studio street level windows. Maybe MCs, scooters, nopeds and mopeds in the group also. If there were enough participants, is the NYPD gonna bust everyone? In front of a live news studio?
Probably not they'll just wait down the street, but cameras in the group can capture all the heavy-handed tactics for you tube.



(I gotta de-caf I guess...)

Even simpler might be a petition drive to put it on the ballot or recall the useless parasites.

Big thinking Weedylot! But, if we did this in manhattan, we would be run over by taxis. I have heard stories of how the NYPD deals with nusiances; they are heavy-handed. There are many videos on youtube that show this. Just a few months ago an officer in NYC pushed a bicyclist to the ground. In the video the officer appeared to purposely do this as the bicylclist was riding in the street. There are also other video's of what officers do to 911 truthers.

Im in, i live in deer park, im waiting for my HT in the mail, im gonna use it as my only motive of transportation since i had my license taken away(unjustly). and ill just be very careful and use that kill switch anytime i see feds. and take back roads. Use the 100 MPG pitch to tell them im going green maybe get a GO GREEN bumper sticker or sumthing.

They don't care bout nothin but revenue in NY. Be heads up on the kill switch (i use the choke)(better on the elct system) and start pedaling!

Get permission from a friend who owns a business w/ a parking lot to ride. That and a headlight to run exclusively off the white wire (LEDS). Two good excuses infront of a judge why your motor was running! Never admitt to being under motor power tho! I alway pedal except on private property your Honor! This don't garentee a win in Court but gives a real good argument!
