Last Friday, August 26, almost 50 bicyclists were arrested while 
trying to participate in New York City's monthly Critical Mass bike 
ride. Over the past year, almost 600 cyclists have been arrested in 
New York. Truckloads of bikes have been confiscated, many cut from 
their locks while their owners stand by helplessly. 
	
You can show that the world is not blind to this blatant abuse of 
human rights, not to mention the equal rights to use public streets. 
Tell New York City officials and police that the world does not 
accept this kind of behavior.

Go to <http://www.worldcarfree.net/nyc> and send a letter to the 
mayor and police commissioner of New York. The more letters they 
receive, the better. Please follow the instructions for sending 
letters (and send us a note so we know how many letters have been 
sent and from where).

Defend cyclists rights now!
