<DIV>While this email does not make entire sense, it raises some long standing
concerns with CM, mostly underscored by the proposed "loose rules"
outlined earlier and the Cantabridgian who saw CM not yield to an ambulance.
</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>In recent rides (I was not there tonite) I have seen an increase in a)
running red lights (not massing and passing) b) a lack of desire to mass up c)
antagonizing motorists trapped and d) worst of all, a desire to get into it with
the cops.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>While run ins with cops has always been an issue, people were smart about
it, dealing with the authorities, not bait and run. This is just wrong and
defeats the purpose of CM.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I love you guys, but we need to bring it back to square one..</DIV>

<DIV>Well I just got back from CM and there were a number of things I would
like to bring up, as we bike to assert our rights on the road<BR>it's
important to realize that we are pissing some people off, who cares right but
when our group breaks down and we become single riders again there is a
certain amount of peril involved I personally was assaulted by a New
Hampshire driver several years ago after I separated from the group and
even tonite after <BR>i was sepated in Camb the cops were somewhat hostile,
anyway i must go but please be aware of this and i'm inteerested in knowing if
there are other <BR>people who have experienced the same,
<BR> On another tact we should always ride around City
Hall and the statehouse, that may have been the most fulfilling moment I have
ever had at CM<BR>that and stopping on The bridge to admirew the beauty of a
moonrise, Thanks to all who attended and to all those who
gawked. Michael</DIV></FONT></BLOCKQUOTE></DIV>
