[*BCM*] A fine point

[Lee Peters]

Would the Neo-Con show up at 5:30 pm, at Copley, on the last Friday of the month?  That is the only rule I know about.

  I'm curious what everyone thinks about the poltical nature of CM?
  Can CM exist apolitically? Or is this form of bike activism inextricably tied to certain "political" leanings?
  would a Neo-Con be welcome on the ride?

    This isn't a criticism of your beliefs Dan, but one of the big turn
    offs for me about CM is the constant crusade against "the machine" and 
    the constant stream of anarchist politics in the ride, I know a lot of
    people feel the same. It alienates a lot of people who aren't
    concerned about bringing down the system, but who just want to be able
    to ride their bikes in peace on the streets. 

    Let's work together to promote bikes, and leave our political agendas
    at the bike rack.
