[*BCM*] Leader? No !

[Jon Ramos]

Those "guidelines" are perfect.
I humbly request that today's ride we try harder to reel in the blockers who tend to get too far ahead of the mass.  Lets try to keep the mass..... well.... massive.

non-mandatory items that I want to add since we are making a nice neat list:

- When a car honks, CM will respond with bells and vocal "Woooooooo".  Longer the honk, the longer the "Woooooooooo"

- Anyone who brings a boombox on their bike should ride near me, and play Warren G's "Regulate" at least once.

see everyone tonight!

Honorary supreme leaders?

Okay, here are the new rules for CM.

    -CM will do its best to just use a single lane.
    -CM will change course often from congested areas to non-congested areas 
to make a smoother ride for CM
    -CM will be guided by someone familiar with the streets of Boston and 
Cambridge
    -When a car is 'trapped' within CM, CM will take a relaxed approach to 
the driver and just let them get by.
    -1-2 corkers are enough - too often there are more corkers than riders 
going through the intersection.  This causes congestion for CM.
    -When a traffic light is red for the lead bikers, stop, because it gives 
everyone a chance to mass-up.
    -When a light changes to red in the middle of the mass, just ride 
through so we can stay together.
    -Have fun by being nice to people.
    -Don't get hurt.


Alright, now flame away, but remember there are no leaders to CM.
