Wolfpack Hustle: LA Times coverage
December 27, 2012 in CRAY SHIT, Los Angeles, Wolfpack A by Roadblock
Fabian Vazquez myself and Hernian Montenegro talk with the LA Times about Wolfpack Hustle. The one thing that I would like to say is that the article paints us more as scofflaws than we really are. We respect the reds, traffic and time the lights. For a park starved city like LA, riding a bicycle at night on a Monday is not the worst activity people can engage in. in fact, it is one of the healthier things we can do.
dude why are you so concerned with how the LA Times makes you look? and why are you so obsessed with making the cops like you? do you have any idea what kinds of brutalities police of every kind are involved in every single day? and here you are kissing their asses because they “let” you ride your bike on the streets? stop being such a pussy….
I wrote and re-wrote a big long boring response to this… but at the end of the day you either agree with what we are trying to accomplish or you don’t.
that’s a very neat little way out. saves you the trouble of admitting you’re a tool.
I’d love to hear your strategy of how the police brutality issue can be solved…
Wow RB sorry you have to deal with tools like this.
I know you deal with a lot of tools in the MR community and even though you may not make the right decision 100% of the time (who does??!?!) it takes a seriously large nutsack to stand up for an entire community in the face of cops I know you know don’t care about bicyclists (per: Roadblock experiences hit and run, does all investigating on his own; attacker gets minimal sentence) and try to make change in a political atmosphere that really isn’t about sustainable transportation.
Sometimes you have to work within the system to create change whether people like it or not and IMO the bicycle community is indebted to you for the awareness you have brought and the lines of communication you have opened between our community of Los Angeles and our bicycle community.
Do you even know who this tomorrowsworld guy is?? I can’t believe a grown man would act like a bullying teenage girl on Facebook…really?? Go blow off some steam and ride your bike, brahhh.
I learned more about Wolfpack through this video and I still hope one day to complete it! (or maybe make it to stop 2…)
This tomorrowsworld guy is a pussy and I really care what people think about me on a bicycle out on the streets when they are passing me on the road. It might mean the difference between a safe 3 foot pass and nearly clipping me and risking my life.
