Since we didn’t post one last week, we’ve got two for you today: one is happy, one aint. Here’s the first, taken on a recent Critical Mass (the Saturday one) ride. The group, which promotes safety in numbers via mass bike rides, meets this Saturday, 10:00 AM at University Metrorail station for a ride through the Gables.
(In other, related, news, riders from Critical Mass Minneapolis were recently tear gassed and beaten down – very literally – by Minneapolis police. More here ).
No, numbers alone won’t get you out of the woods — as was seen right here in Miami a week ago, when no less than eleven bicyclists were injured when an SUV pulled out in front of a pack of cyclists. The driver, whom Miami-Dade police concede was at fault, has been ticketed. Two bicyclists had to be air-lifted – click on ‘more’ to see one of them.
We’re thankful for you. Are you thankful for us?
We feel thankful for our staff and for the privilege of fulfilling our mission to be an unparalleled source of information and insight in Miami. We’re aiming to raise $30,000 by December 31, so we can continue covering what matters most to this community.
Help us continue giving back to Miami.
