CTripps,
I'm in Cresent beach and noticed the same thing. The attitude is I can't drive legally but here is a way for me to beat the system then the system beats those of us who are innocent.
As soon as I heared of the Critical Mass rides I pictured the participants. Much like the thugs who took part in the Stanley Cup riots. As you said we are now brushed with the same brush as they are. If your on a bike your one of THEM and therefore a cheap target.
If I got a bunch of lip from the dispatcher I would have asked to speak to the owner or manager and then told them it was that or I would have been there personally to speak to them and would mention the dispatcher often in the conversation.
A call to the cops and I.C.B.C. would get thier attention as well because we know how much I.C.B.C. likes paying out for claims.
Oh and I'm laughing at your term m@ssholes. When I lived in New Hampshire that is what we called any one from Massachuetts. Of course they would yell Cow Hampshire back in reference to our country setting and the fact that at one time New Hampshire was a large dairy producer.
Steve.
