The only problem I have had was a run-in with the MPD regarding the light and helmet laws in the city. The police force on Beale is pretty much a joke to me. They're all pricks with nothing else to do but stop bro's from dunk raging out on Beale and dudes who think they are hard because they carry guns to bars... <BR/><BR/>BUT, every time i ride down it i expect a cop to stop me because <B>there are signs <I>warning</I> bikes not to go down the street</B> so it's really is no surprise to me that this happened. I don't know if walking your bikes down Beale is going to help the situation but I wish you the best of luck in court even though i don't think the case will hold up. <BR/>Also, to the dick who wrote above me, go fuck your self you fagot cop. <BR/>Thanks guys!<BR/><BR/><BR/><BR/>http://img88.imageshack.us/my.php?image=punchinthefacece0.jpgAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8432887415868484163.post-81754594017292480572008-10-06T14:09:00.000-05:002008-10-06T14:09:00.000-05:00Let's cite a specific location.

I arrived around 5:30 at the "meeting locating" and there were a few riders. The ride was listed to start at 6pm but most of the riders who showed up thought it started at 5:30. this led to a pretty large disband. Around 6:05 we started with about 10-12 riders. It was easy ,enjoyable and really would have been alot of fun with about 20 more riders. Since it was friday night , downtown was getting busy and traffic was a little heavy. Still we made it without any issues or faults. <BR/><BR/>Thanks again. will be there on september 26th.<BR/><BR/>-M.MagbeeAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8432887415868484163.post-19765492781606180632008-09-10T11:29:00.000-05:002008-09-10T11:29:00.000-05:00Please Memphis!

He was riding on Poplar near Mendenhall about a month ago when a police officer pulled him over and told him he had to ride on the sidewalk. My hubby told me he then proceeded to talk with the officer about cycling/motorist laws in Tennessee and eventually he was able to continue his ride without a ticket or citation. I think cyclists need to ride with some kind of copy of the laws that apply to cyclists. I told my husband I would be much more comfortable if he would print out the applicable laws and keep those in his bike bag. It is really a shame that law enforcement (who should be helping to protect cyclists) can often be such a hassle for riders.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8432887415868484163.post-75423253113101131752008-08-25T15:46:00.000-05:002008-08-25T15:46:00.000-05:006:00pm6:00pmMemphis Cyclisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01365349872633415588noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8432887415868484163.post-4237963777305968732008-08-24T17:24:00.000-05:002008-08-24T17:24:00.000-05:00What time is the next Critical Mass ride? 5:30 or ...What time is the next Critical Mass ride? 5:30 or 6 pm?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8432887415868484163.post-84394134241941924632008-08-03T09:07:00.000-05:002008-08-03T09:07:00.000-05:00WTF IS WRONG WITH PEOPLE?
